What will you learn in this book?

The seven techniques that everyone who wants to be successful in time management must know.
The only tasks that you should care about. This only can completely change the way you approach work.
How to set your goals the right way. If you do this, then everything else becomes crystal clear.
The exact same productivity method that saved my life. I would have been trapped in life without this.

How to get more work done in 2 hours than most can get done in a whole day.
My 100% guaranteed method to ensure that you are successful at whatever you do.

Before I wrote this book, I gave three of my friends a layout of the system to try. To my surprise, they saw almost the same amount of increase in productivity as I did.

They reported feeling like they had more time than they knew what to do with. Finishing large projects in half the time as before. Making more HUGE steps towards their goals fast and feeling much better about life.

That is the power of mastering your time. What took me almost a year to achieve, by using my system, it only took them days.

This is the power of learning to master your time.

These are the results you can have.

About the Author

Hello, Dennis Crosby here.

I wanted to take a minute and introduce myself, and answer the question you are probably asking: "Who is Dennis Crosby?"

I'm actually a pretty normal guy, who went through a point where I decided that it was time for me to tap into my potential.

Without going into the boring details, I was just not satisfied with where Iwas in life. Every day felt like a waste and I could literally feel mytime slipping away.

It hasn't been an easy road. I have read more books, listened to more audio books and experimented with moretechniques then the law should allow. But eventually, things startedmaking more sense.

Every day the world became a little clearerand I slowly felt that potential rising to the surface. Inch by inch, my life had more meaning.

Over recent years I havelearned some amazing things that can be duplicated by anyone who islooking to make a real change in their life. Everything that I havelearned has come from either very successful friends, world renownleaders or really good books.

But why should you believe me?

There are a lot of people running around trying to convince you that they have all the answers.

Well, unfortunately for you, I don't have ALL the answers.

But I do believe that I have SOME of the answers (and I think the answers I have are pretty important).

Honestly, you SHOULDN'T just blindly believe me. In fact, Iwould recommend that you approach my materials with a healthy skepticism and a "scientific" perspective.

I want you to TRY what you learn from me. I think you will find that I am not interested in things thatdon't work. I like stuff that gets results and makes a meaningful impact on your life.

Only after you see that what I present is REAL...do I want you to "believe" me.

I'm a person, and as a person I have my flaws. But I also think myinformation is the best in the world, and I stand behind it all.

I honestly hope you get a TON of value from this!

-Dennis

Hello, Dennis Crosby here.

I'm actually a pretty normal guy who went through a point where I decided that it was time for me to learn how to tap into my potential.

Without going into the boring details, I was just not satisfied with where I was in life. Every day felt like a waste and I could literally feel my time slipping away.

It hasn't been an easy road. I have read more books, listened to more audio programs and experimented with more techniques then the law should allow. Eventually, things started making more sense.

Every day the world became a little clearer and I slowly felt that potential rising to the surface. Inch by inch, my life had more meaning.

My real breakthrough came while I was reading the book King, Lover, Warrior and Magician. I learned that a large internal conflict that I was dealing with was just me suppressing my desire to share what I learned with the world.

Now I have committed myself to the goal of "helping the world live a more complete and fulfilled life." I know it will be difficult and I am just taking it one day at a time. One book at a time.

Over recent years I have learned some amazing things that can be duplicated by anyone who is looking to make a real change in their life. Everything that I have learned has come from either very successful friends, world renown leaders or really good books.

Either way, it is all amazing.

Why should you believe me?

As you already know quite well, there are a lot of people running around trying to convince you that they have all the answers.

Well, unfortunately for you, I don't have ALL the answers.

But I do believe that I have SOME of the answers (and I think the answers I have are pretty important).

The question you're probably asking is "Why should I believe what Dennis Crosby says?".

My answer is that you SHOULDN'T just blindly believe me. In fact, I would recommend that you approach my materials with a healthy skepticism and a "scientific" perspective.

This is the Missing How-To Guide!

Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2013

I have read a number of books that could fall into the "how do I get better at life" category over the past 10 years. Most books I've read have left me with some nuggets good information I've used to understand WHAT I should be doing differently and WHY. There are a precious few books that have helped me put the concepts into action (the HOW). This is one of those books. The author has not come up with new concepts or theories for making a person more productive, but he does explain how to put the best-in-class productivity concepts into action. This is one of maybe 3 books that I know I will refer to and re-read to keep the ideas fresh in my mind.

One place that was a very profound for me is goal setting and prioritization. I've been pretty good throughout my career about setting goals using the clever SMART acronym. Although he does not mention SMART explicitly, the author has a way of breaking down the philosophy behind SMART that makes it straight forward, and easy to apply. I found myself spending a lot of time going through the goal definition exercises because of how easy I found the methodology. I'll never get stuck on goal setting/planning again!

The material on prioritization have been eye opening for me as well. The author talks about the "Area of Impact" (AOI), which I relate to AOR in GTD, and Roles from the Seven Habits (although the analogy is not perfect). The basic idea is that you need to understand what the outcome you want is, and then understand "...what you do that produces the most meaningful results", then do that work that produces the most meaningful results. That seems like table stakes, but how often have you sat down and really articulated what work you do that adds the most value to the outcome you want, and then focus just on that? I know I didn't do this nearly enough!

All in all a great read. I highly recommend for anyone, and especially for those who are introspective and take personal responsibility for being more productive.

You can't swing a cat & hit a better book than this one. It's great!

The cover of the book seems a little gimicky so I was hestitant to purchase. It reminds me of a bad infomercial in written form. Not very appealing to the eye or to the person searching for legit help in improving focus, time management & overall self help. However, after reading the reviews on Amazon I decided to take the bait. I read this book very quickly & then went back over it one chapter at the time to make sure I understood everything the author said. There is a lot of information that can be considered to be common sense, BUT the difference in the advice this book gives & common sense is that people do not use common sense. So if you read the book & actually USE the tools the author has written to help then you will see success. I was motivated to move forward without feeling like I was being applauded for. The message of the book shows you how to make goals for the year, how to break those goals into reachable tasks & how to daily make progress towards those goals. You cannot simply read the book, you have to do the work. If you're not willing to take the time to sit down & work on your life plan, then it doesn't matter how many of these books you read. They're not going to work. Since reading this book & making my goals for 2013 I have crossed 4 tasks off of my list. That's faster than a spider monkey on Mt. Dew! Again, I was ready for change in my life. Get a pencil (Or in my case, Evernote) & paper so you can get to work. Remember as the inspirational Sean Whalen said, "Power is Powerful."

Nebulous and confusing

Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2014

Reading the book I came to a place in the book, where the key element, the "master list" is explained. The section reads like this:
"First, we will start by creating your master list. A master list is named as such because it will essentially be the culmination of your efforts. On this list, you are going to put down every single thing that you have to do for the upcoming months. The tasks you write down will be based on the monthly goals you set yesterday along with anything else you can think of. It doesn't have to be in any order; it just needs to be as comprehensive as possible. If you can, try to create one for your personal life and one for your work life."

Focus on the statement "put down every single thing that you have to do for the upcoming months". What does this mean? If you literally follow the advice to "put down every single thing that you have to do" it becomes unrealistic. I typically do 10-15 things a day. So it is 450 things a month. So for 6 months it is over 2000 things. How can I put down a list of 2000 things? Also I can't even imagine all the things I have to do several month ahead because the life happens, and it is impossible to predict everything.

So what does that statement really mean? Well the author does not explain so we are left to guess ourselves. C'mon Mr author. Don't write things that sound good but are nebulous and confusing. Why don't you show us a master list that you did for yourself. Then we could at least figure out what you have in mind. Since your whole book is built around the "master list" this is not a minor issue.

Overall, a very good read

I read this book originally in 2017. Now, 4 years later, my career has drastically changed. I re-read this book tonight and am still impressed with the content. It literally is a step by step plan to improve productivity and identify the work that will get you ahead. I deducted one star for the abundant spelling and grammatical errors. Nevertheless, take a change on this book.

Excellent!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 27, 2013

Verified Purchase

An excellent book! The author very clearly sets out how to accomplish a higher amount of productivity in seven steps. He tells the reader how to do it, when to do it and why you need to do it that way. The information is easy to understand and can be applied to home life as well as work life, whether you're an employee or self-employed. By the time you're half way through the book, you can feel yourself mentally applying it to all sorts of situations in your life, even if you're reading it through first before you put it into action. I've found this to be the best book on the subject that I've ever read. No waffle, no 'politician' speak (saying loads and meaning nothing). Just clear concise instructions to increase your productivity. Great stuff!

Useful practical tips

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 2, 2014

The book was a quick read full of practical tips on improving daily habits in order to achieve maximum productivity. I found the tips useful and I have applied some to my life already. The only issue that I had with the book was a shallow explanation of inertia and a misunderstanding of the concept. Otherwise a good read

Straightforward and Practical

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on November 22, 2014

An easy, clear take on how to be more productive. It cut straight through all the usual precursors and heavy research and got straight to the point. This worked for me, but you might need a bit more depth to motivate yourself if it's the first time management book you've read.
However, it was so straightforward I genuinely found it easy to get on with implementing all the steps. It was a great reminder of what works and got me back on track.
