 Obtaining this book is something you can likely procrastinate on... October 14, 2008

The book could've been much shorter as it repeated the same points over and over and over. This review feels the same way in that it's just a repeat of what others have said. Sorry about that... Tried to like the book and look for some positive qualities. I guess it could serve as a reminder of goal setting and prioritizing. But, I felt like it was mainly a rehashing of parts of Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and I think Covey said it better himself. I would advise checking your public library first if you're interested in the book, just so as to avoid possibly spending money you will regret.

A summary of simple and easy steps to boost your productivity in a slim, easily read book that's suitable for even the most time pressured of people. With plenty of tips and ideas that you can dip in and out of when you need it, to help deal with the habit of putting things off. It's on my recommended reading list for clients and is a great addition to any busy person's bookshelf.
You can't even make the excuse that you don't have time to read it, each chapter is only a few pages long with a handy summary/action section after each one.

I wanted very much to like this book.
Normally I will read an excellent book cover to cover only taking time off to eat, sleep, and go to work.
A good book I will typically read a chapter a day, every day.
Although this book has some decent advice, it is a very dry read.
I have had for over a month now and am only a third through it.

I purchased the audio version of this book and listen to it over and over. Brian has a very positive and soothing voice and gets right to the point. No fluff. If you want fluff and lots of complicated language, check out Getting Things Done by David Allen. I started in on Allen's book and put it down after a few pages because Eat That Frog is so much simpler and concise. I like to play Eat that Frog and The Ultimate Goals Program over and over again in my car.
