About this listen

How often do you get to the end of another long and frantic day and wonder why so many important things didn't get finished? We've never worked so hard and felt so unproductive and unfulfilled. 18 Minutes takes this challenge and turns it on its head. Peter Bregman, top Harvard Business Review columnist and global management consultant, shatters the myth of getting it all done by offering a clear and simple plan for getting the right things done. He shows how the best way to fight distracting interruptions is to create productive ones ourselves, a practice that can be easily implemented in 18 minutes a day. The result is a simple yet comprehensive approach to managing your life a year, a day, and a moment at a time so that your life moves forward the way you want and at the pace you want.

In my opinion, I would recommend this book for people of any age in a more corporate/business environment or just people who want to learn new valuable techniques to self improve their work habits/performances.

I listened to this book a second time after the first for a more in-depth learning experience. Love the relevant life stories that Peter provided and articulated his interpretations into lessons that others can take onboard.

I'd say the biggest thing that I took out of this book was the "find my location" technique where I stop every 30min (or so) and assess what I've achieved and judge whether I am still on the right track towards my goal.

Love your work Peter!

Enjoyed this so much I listened twice!
