18 Minutes: Find Your Focus, Master Distraction, and Get the Right Things Done18 Minutes: Find Your Focus, Master Distraction, and Get the Right Things Done by Peter Bregman
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I hesitated in my choice of star rating for this book. I would say I personally got 10 stars of value out of it. However, for a book about finding one’s focus it didn’t half go on. It felt to me that the information conveyed in 253 pages could have been easily, and perhaps more usefully, condensed into half this number. It’s all very folksy. If you are the sort of person who likes to have five examples illustrating the same point so you can get there yourself, then you will love this. Me, I just like to be told the point.

Having said this, I did find it to be the most useful of all the time management books/systems I’ve ever read about. Just reading some chapters made me feel more organised.

I’d definitely look for more of what Peter Bregman has to offer.
