Can't say i enjoyed it, probably because it's hard to apply to my work. As someone who tends to procrastinate, i hoped this book would help me to better my productivity but it's really for higher in the chain of command office workers, execs, and entrepreneurs, who are overwhelmed by the sheer amount of work they have to do. All of the example stories in the book, were of the author's clients who are all business owners, entrepreneurs, or generally near the top of the command. Another minor thing is, in the book author recommends some productivity software and although she gives some alternatives for windows and linux, this book more or less assumes you are in the apple ecosystem
