The great thing about Jan Yager’s book Work Less, Do More: The 14 Day Productivity Makeover, is that it is a VERY practical book. It is very obvious that the author is quite passionate about the topic, and that she has thought carefully about what she has written – and last but not least, that she has actually used the practical resources that she has packed all throughout the book.
This book is all about getting you to take action with the productivity principles that are taught, so that you can apply them immediately to your own life. And let’s face it, - this is what we all need – help at turning our goals into our reality. From quizzes, reflective questions, worksheets, to-do lists, and many other creative, practical tools, your hand will be held through out your entire journey as you commit to becoming productive.
Be prepared to face your ugly demons of time management also, as Jan is skilled at finding those areas which can be a nuisance, yet very valuable, to address – such as dealing with things such as delegating tasks, setting your boundaries, etc., - among many other topics! Also, Jan knows that everyone is already busy, and so her book is purposely set up so that you can read and learn the material in small chunks. If you are the typical “A” type personality, you’ll love the way this book encourages you to work hard and play hard – the smart way! You won’t be disappointed with this amazing book that is full of original, unique ideas! This is a “must have” to read, re-read, and keep readily available on your book shelf!!!!
