getAbstract Summary: Get the key points from this book in less than 10 minutes.

No one can manage time – everyone gets the same 24 hours each day. Productivity expert Maura Nevel Thomas says to focus instead on managing your attention because what you focus on daily will govern what you accomplish. She explains how to organize yourself to deal with the activities that matter most. And, she discusses strategies you can use to be more productive under the rubric "Empowered Productivity System." The caveat is that her advice adds up as more of a philosophical approach applied by heeding some practical recommendations than as a step-by-step linear system. So while that misnomer may lead you to expect a literal 1-2-3 system, that's not exactly what you'll find. However, her manual delivers quite well on the more important promise in its title: Thomas's "productivity secrets" are very solid. getAbstract recommends her tactics to everyone who wants to become more productive.
