Most self-help books that concentrate on boosting productivity have two flaws. They are either written in business jargon that the average reader cannot understand or they do not address actual impediments to business productivity. The main focus of the book is to discuss how discipline can motivate individuals and make them more productive in the work place and in everyday life. This book is helpful because it addresses the myths we tell ourselves about being productive: if I just get up earlier, or if I just do more, or if I just have the time I could be so much better. The book breaks down these myths and gives practical solutions to boosting internal motivation. As a business woman I found the suggestions in the book helpful, realistic, and useful. It is always nice to have new ways to motivate yourself.The book is short, informative and easy to read. The writing style is engaging and frank. Overall the punctuation, grammar, and mechanics of the book were good. I wish that the book was a little longer- and had more scientific studies and statistics to bolster claims made by the author.If you are thinking of starting a business or if you have been in the corporate rat race for a while I think that this books will give you some new tricks to motivating yourself, your employees, and boosting your productivity and efficiency. This book would make a great gift for recent graduates as well.I recommend this book to everyone looking for tips on how to be the best version of you.
