I got lucky and saw this as a free purchase on amazon and grabbed it. I'm an advocate of the GTD process and thought if I could gain even one take away from this then the more the better. I actually took away quite a few ideas and was pleasantly surprised.
The authors ideas seem very similar to the GTD process so it didnt contradict anything I currently follow, but some of the methods such as taking 30 minutes prior to your day to organize and plan all of your buckets has helped me a lot in menta...more

Organization should be simple, if not, it won't be done. I do not have a perfect method of organizing my day but the stress level I currently manage is less stressful than his "easy tips" which include 3-4 steps for the same thing. I don't need 3-4 steps to accomplish one thing, my half-assed plan is much simpler and easy to follow. I know everyone has there own way of doing things but I don't see how this plan would aid anyone struggling with getting things done. It would take me all day to set...more
"Attack Your Day!: Before it Attacks You" by Mark Woods and the late Trapper Woods is a simple guide to taking control of your time, in both your personal and private life. "Ridiculously easy" methods should help you create new habits as you stop wasting valuable time.
Six concise chapters make this a very fast read and are the heart of the book. The '101 Productivity Strategies' that follow are all good ideas, although most of them are repeating information you learned in the first half of the b...more

“Attack Your Day! Before It Attacks You” by Mark Woods and Trapper Woods is a good time management, or activities management, book if you are not familiar with others or don't have a system working for you. Because of the plethora of books on this topic, there really isn't much new, just different ways to say it. The authors put their spin on the topic, and do so well. Trapper Woods worked with Dr. Charles R. Hobbs and was one of his Time Power seminar facilitators, so it is no wonder there are...more
This is an excellent book to learn ways to help you be more productive during your day. Find your time wasters and work to eliminate them. Plan your day. I definitely need help with this aspect of my life, I tend to lose focus and find myself bouncing from activity to activity. Simply having a form for things to do close at hand will help you keep from losing focus. This and a plethora of other ideas are in this book full of practical time management advice.
A short little book on time management. Because I am a Charles Hobbes fan, and it is written by the son of one of Charles Hobbes associates, using many of his principles made it a fun read for me. Some very good ideas, including arranging your day as a game board. Interesting!
This book was a lot like Getting Things Done by David Allen. I am following this. My dog has decided that she isn't going to let me type anymore tonight. And we missed Nashville for this? OK, I will write a longer review on Amazon. Got this from the Vine Program. 1st book of 2013 for me. Like a New Year's Resolution. Already feel like I am more productive.
This book gives advice on how to manage your day and accomplish more. I already use many of the strategies offered in this book. I am planning to incorporate a couple of the strategies to accomplish more in my day. Glad I read this book!
Free kindle book.
Mostly a rehash of basic time management, but with a more flexible execution model without rigid rules. The style it teaches allows for more wisdom and common sense in the day-to-day doing, which I appreciated.

I thought this book was practical, to the point and that it has very useful information about ways to organize your time. Also,

Good advice for being more productive
Some good tips. A relatively quick read.
Very good book on time management. The author breaks down his ideas into simple rules and concepts. This book is realistic and straight-forward. I can see myself referring back to these rules often. I especially like the end of the book that consists of a list of 101 suggestions to try over time.
Glad I read it with the videos required for class, now to just have so much to do that I could use this time management style!

Grabbed this when it was free on Kindle. It was a good refresher on time management for me.
Too simple. Too redundant.
