Eat That Frog!
21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time by Brian Tracy
There's an old saying...
"If the first thing you do when you wake up in the morning is eat a live frog, then nothing worse can happen for the rest of the day!"
Brian Tracy says that your “frog” should be the most difficult item on your things to-do list, the one you’re most likely to procrastinate on; because, if you eat that first, it’ll give you energy and momentum for the rest of the day.
But, if you don’t...and let him sit there on the plate and stare at you while you do a hundred unimportant things, it can drain your energy and you won’t even know it.
In Eat That Frog!, Brian cuts to the core of what is vital to effective time management: decision, discipline and determination. In 21 practical steps, he will help you stop procrastinating and get more of the important tasks done…today!
Brian is one of America’s leading authorities on development of human potential. He speaks to over 250,000 people a year and has written over 25 books. Eat That Frog! is an international bestseller, with over 500,000 copies sold.
We’re pleased to say, however, that Simple Truths has taken a great book, and well...made it better! How? We’ve made it a little shorter; a little more engaging with great graphics; a little more “giftable” with an embossed hard cover, and of course, packaging that can create a “wow” effect! In short, we’ve turned a great book into a great gift for employees, customers, friends and family.
Here’s a small sampling in Brian’s chapter titled: Apply the 80/20 Rule to Everything. Enjoy!
