review 1: This is a very short book, which is able to be read in a day. I found this book quite useful with a bunch of rules which guide you to a better, more productive life. You will be guided to limit everything in a workday as much as possible, by list up and focus on what are most essential. However, this book is not very well organized, I found many details which are duplicated, and be mentioned over and over again. Despite that, this book is worth ready though.
review 2: Eh...it was ok. It's an easy read. He keeps you engaged but I feel like this isn't practical for everyone. Possibly in people's personal lives, but not necessarily at work. I couldn't follow his guidelines at work...the suggestion to limit how often I check email alone would get me in serious hot
... morewater. While I understand his point, my organization thrives on email. We communicate via phone, email and instant message constantly. Many people work from home or remotely and we need to stay in contact. I could chunk some time in a day when I don't check my email regularly but not all day every day. He has some good points but I think the overall premise is unattainable unless we all quit our jobs or get a lot more people on board to this way if thinking. less

I'm not sure having goals and being Zen can coexist.
