Produktbeschreibung

Eat That Frog! 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastinating and Get More Done in Less Time, Third Edition, Updated with Two New Chapters Eat That Frog! is one of the best books on time management ever written, an international bestseller with over a million and a half copies sold that's been translated into more than forty languages. Now Brian Tracy has updated this modern classic with two brand-new chapters, making it even more essential than before. Tracy says there just isn't enough time for everything on our to-do list-and there never will be. Successful people don't try to do everything. They learn to focus on the most important tasks and make sure those get done. They eat their frogs. There's an old saying that if the first thing you do each morning is eat a live frog, you'll have the satisfaction of knowing you're done with the worst thing you'll have to do all day. For Tracy, eating a frog is a metaphor for tackling your most challenging task-but also the one that can have the greatest positive impact on your life. Eat That Frog! shows you how to organize each day-and your entire life-so you can zero in on these critical tasks and accomplish them efficiently and effectively. In this fully revised and updated edition, Tracy adds two new chapters. The first one explains how you can use technology to remind yourself of what is most important and protect yourself from what is least important-in other words, to help you eat your frogs. The second offers advice for maintaining focus in our era of constant distractions, electronic and otherwise. But one thing remains unchanged: Brian Tracy cuts to the core of what is vital to effective time management: decision, discipline, and determination. This life-changing book will ensure that you get more of your important tasks done-today!

If you find procrastination to be a consistent problem in your life, Eat That Frog! offers a concise and valuable collection of tactics to try. The reasons for each person s procrastination are different, so it s good that Tracy s tactics are fairly diverse and attack many different avenues of procrastination.
The Simple Dollar

Eat That Frog! is my favourite book on productivity, and I often find myself rereading it in January to remind myself of the disciplines and practices I d like to follow in the coming year. Each time I read the book, I find new nuggets of productivity gold.
Liz Gooster, Change for the Better

Everyone has a frog, and eating that frog is the best thing you can do to stop procrastinating. Procrastination is a time-killer, and Tracy has a way of making getting over that frog fun and exciting. Every chapter presents a new idea, tip, and technique that will help you overcome that inner laziness that keeps you on the couch at night instead of in the gym.
Peanut Press

Eat That Frog!, small in pages but huge in content, offers a cure for the curse of modern-day living: procrastination. Even though the medicine sounds painful (bush tucker trail kind of stuff), it isn t. Like you, I have read zillions of books and most of the time I can t remember anything that I have just read. Not with this one. I m eating frogs daily and feeling better for it! I can t recommend Eat That Frog! enough.
Corinna Richards, The Coaching Academy

This book gave me the kick in the pants I needed to organize my to do lists, plan my days, become more productive, and get focused.
Beth Anne Schwamberger, Brilliant Business Moms

Eat That Frog! is the most accessible book on time management and personal productivity I recommend you read this one before you learn any particular time management system. There are tons of exercises and techniques that you can implement right away, and that is what I like the most about the book it gives you actionable steps so you can start right away.
Thanh Pham, Asian Efficiency

An impactful read. The 21 ways that [Tracy] shares are real game changers, if you read with an eye towards self-improvement and an intention to make a change. I have benefitted greatly from this book, and I highly recommend that you pick up your own copy today.
Chris Moore, Reflect on This

We strongly recommend this book to anyone who wants to manage her time well and also add value to herself in this competitive world.
The Journal of Applied Christian Leadership

I wasn t expecting all that much from the book initially, as the whole eating a frog seemed like some new age nonsense that didn t really apply in real life. I couldn t have been more wrong. The best thing about this book is that it actually tells you what you should do. It doesn t just spout philosophy after philosophy about dreams and hope. It gives solid, practical advice that applies to pretty much every one students, employees, stay-at-home moms, entrepreneurs, etc. Whether you re having time management issues or not, I d recommend you pick up this book. You re sure to learn something useful from it.

This book distinguishes itself from others of the same type by laying out specific guidelines for developing the self-discipline that allows you to start and complete important tasks in sequence. Each of the 21 chapters offers clear instructions and practice exercises to help you determine if you are making the best use of your time at any given moment. You ll learn how to prepare yourself mentally and physically to tackle the task at hand, along with strategies for dividing it into manageable segments to keep you moving forward. You ll even find out what to tell yourself to do if you re having trouble getting started, or become distracted and need to get back on track.
