Sarah Ford’s Reviews > Get It Done: Surprising Lessons from the Science of Motivation > Status Update

Slow going. I hate not finishing a book, but it’s just a tedious one. I have to use the stopwatch on my phone and start a new lap with every page to stop myself from reaching for my phone. 37 pages to go.

I’m learning a lot from this book. It can be a little dry, but I’m enjoying it in small bites—@15 pages a day. I like that it gives me a lot to think about terms of my goals, the means by which I try to achieve them, the perspectives(e.g. Should I focus on commitment or lack of progress?) that are possible to take, etc. I recommend to other readers that they write short summaries of each chapter as as they go.
