Looking for a review of "Fearless Productivity" by Paul Brodie

18 November, 2011 - 10:06am - studentessa

It can be downloaded from a website of the same name, and according to the website of course is super-useful, but I could not find any independent reviews for it. Still 37$ is a lot for a student, especially if its not so great.



So I was looking for someone here with chronic procrastination who read it and tried the methods. Did they work, and if yes, was it hard to stick to them or could you integrate them easily into your schedule?

It has a money-back guarantee, so I decided to give Brodie's approach a try. I'll let you know how it goes.

Don't do it! I fell for it and fully regretted it because it doesn't address the compulsive aspect. Its another useless time management system.

Thankyou

Thanks for your answer. It helps me greatly, because time-management is not really my problem...

I don't see anything online about this system that doesn't come from Paul Brodie himself.    Were I you I would start with some of books that have been recommended here on this site.   I personally like 'Zen to Done' by Leo Babauta. 

But, if you try it, let us know how you like it!

Hey Jo!
Thanks for your answer. I am currently trying 'Zen to Done' for the umpteenth time... but somehow I hang at the third month. I have reviewed it already. I find that it is an excellent time-management book for people who have too many things to do but don't know how to start. My Problem rather is, that I have a few important things to do, that I do not really feel like doing, even though I have the time and know how to start...
