Publisher's Summary

Most people are stuck. Every day we seem to just go through the motions, following our usual routine without ever stopping and thinking why we do what we do, or what we'd rather be doing instead. But sometimes, we have that one day - that Perfect Day - where everything just clicks. We feel great. We are unstoppable. And at the end of it we think, "Why can't every day be like this?"

Critic Reviews

"Everybody wants to live the perfect life but fail to understand you do that by designing and living the perfect day, day after day. This book shows you exactly what you have to do to create that day." (Larry Winget, author of Grow a Pair)
"Like his site Early to Rise, Craig's book relies on ancient wisdom and classic thinkers - including my favorite, the Stoics - to help you organize your day and run your life." (Ryan Holiday, author of The Obstacle Is the Way)

Too many promises and a sales speech at the end. Fairly disappointed.

I was hoping to get a perfect day formula in the book. The author builds up promises that gives the readers hope to listen on. As I come to the last chapter the author says, “Let’s go” I wait anticipating the perfect day formula. All I get is a pitch to participate in his workshop!

I feel like I didn’t get the value expected of the book. Really disappointed!

good overall but sales pitch end

I thought it had good ideas throughout but I was just turned off by the sales pitch at the end. I really don't like buying a book only to find out I need to go to a live event to find out more!!!

thinly veiled infomercial

I gave this book two stars as people who are just starting out in their career, are very young, or haven't read widely might get something from this book.

for those of you with some experience or more widely read there are far better, more original books.

the book is very repetitive, contains little genuine insignt or analysis, no original or unique thought, and becomes a blatant hard sell for the author's coaching and consulting business and events in the last chapters.

For the stressed over achievers

If you feel stressed when you're NOT working, this is for you. Period. This book gives yourself permission to spend time with those who matter WHILE achieving more.

Great advice and very easy to listen too.

Whole heartedly recommend this book. I have been able to apply the wisdom and advice to my life and have already seen the positive impact as a result.
