Customer Review: A sensible guide on how to use your time
For poet Alfred Lord Tennyson, time was, “a maniac, scattering dust.” Satirist Jonathan Swift described it as, “all-devouring, all-destroying.” William Shakespeare called it, “the wreckful siege of battering days.” English dramatist Robert Greene may have captured time’s essence most aptly in this simple elegy: “Time is…time was…time is past.” Throughout history and up to the present moment (which as you are reading just slipped irretrievably into the past), everyone – from great kings to the average Jane or Joe – wants more time…but no one ever gets it. This is why time management is such a, well, timely topic, and one that most people want to learn more about and handle better. Therefore, we recommend this high-quality time management guide and finds it worth careful study. Time-management experts at the Harvard Business School prepared this first-rate title, which thoroughly explains how to set up an effective time-management program. So, read it. Don’t wait until the buzzer sounds.
