I see lots of quotes by Brian Tracy but don't think I've read any of his books before. There was a deal on this one so I figured I'd give it a read. This book was published in 2016. Maybe the "all new" ideas didn't seem so new to me because I'd heard them from other sources? I thought it was a good book for people new to time management or who need some help in this area.

Here's what Amazon had to say about this book: "Discover 10 Essential Ways to Make the Most of Your Time

“Time is money,” as the saying goes, but most of us never feel we have enough of either. In Master Your Time, Master Your Life, internationally acclaimed productivity expert and bestselling author Brian Tracy presents a brilliant new approach to time management that will help you gain control of your time and accomplish far more, faster and more easily than you ever thought possible.

Drawing on the latest research in productivity science and Tracy’s decades of expertise, this breakthrough program allocates time into ten categories of priority—including strategic planning/goal setting, people and family, income improvement, rest/relaxation, and even creative time—and reveals the best techniques for focusing on each effectively. By thoughtfully applying the principles in Master Your Time, Master Your Life, you’ll not only achieve greater results and reach your goals more quickly and successfully, you’ll alsohave more time to devote to what you truly love."

People who have trouble managing their time or prioritizing.

I forget when "Essentialism" came out? I wonder if he was influenced by that or if he predated it. There was a chapter that reminded me of "Essentialism."

I liked that he was straightforward and explained things clearly.

I liked that he put a high value on relationships (something some time management experts forget to do or just don't value).

That there wasn't anything new for me. But I have taught classes on time management so I'm probably not the target audience for this book.

Like I was getting a review of time management / reminder kind of thing.

Quote about this author: "Brian Tracy is one of the country's leading authorities on the development of human potential and personal effectiveness. Tracy will lead you to more time and success."―The Business Journal (found on the amazon book listing page)
