Why does it seem like no matter how you try to organize your work and your life, you never get less busy? Why are so many "time savers" really just time drains? And most important, what can you do about it? More Time for You is the answer.

This potentially life-changing book spells out a proven and powerful system to help you get and stay organized, prioritize responsibilities, get things done faster, and have more time away from the phone, e-mail, office, paperwork-whatever it is that's interfering with your productivity and your life. Written to help you make the most of productivity enhancers you probably already have, More Time for You will show you how to:

  • Set up a calendar management system using Microsoft Outlook or similar applications
  • "Triage" your e-mail to maintain an empty mailbox
  • Abandon strategies that don't work, including the impossible "multitasking"
  • Handle (and even eliminate) distractions
  • Take full advantage of cell phones, smart phones, and other handhelds
  • Maximize the power (and minimize the time sink) of social media like Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter
  • Banish that nagging feeling that something is slipping through the cracks
  • Make better decisions based on quantifiable priorities

Add to your everyday technologies the tips, examples, screen-shots, and real-life scenarios in More Time for You, and you've got everything you need to streamline your work-starting now!
