About this ebook
The international bestselling guide to managing time and prioritizing tasks—in a fully revised and updated edition featuring 2 new chapters!
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 Brian 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 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 explains how you can use technology to remind yourself of what is most important and protect yourself from what is least important. The second offers advice for maintaining focus in our era of constant distractions, electronic and otherwise.

This is the first book I read about time management. I wish I had read this book when I was a student, and my life would have been so different. Procrastination has been my headache since I was small. Because of procrastination, I missed train, didn't finish homework on time, was late for appointments, etc.. I know procrastination is bad, but I never know how to overcome it, until I read this book. The most useful knowledge in this book is the detailed steps of beating procrastination. They are very actionable and work well on me. I have been following the author's advice for a week. I saw an increase in my productivity on the first day I took action. To make the best use of this book, I suggest you try out every advice in this book. Simply knowing the ideas will not help. You have to take actions.
