Book #7 was “Make Time” by Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky!

I really enjoyed this one as a useful and actionable productivity book! And because there are two authors, they actually share two different views on tactics that work best for them. So this could be really helpful if you want to pick and choose those tactics!

Knapp and Zeratsky created a system for overcoming overwhelm and taking back control of your hours:

  • Highlight your most important task

  • Laser in on it with distraction-free tactics

  • Energize your body and mind

  • Reflect to fine-tune your approach.

So as always, I want to share my top 3 takeaways from this week’s book that I think could help you narrow your focus on what matters most!
