Monday, December 29th, 2008

You have read “Getting Things Done - The Art of Stress-Free Productivity“, right?

If you have, you’d want to get the newest book by David Allen… and if you haven’t grab both from Amazon now:

The new book is called: “Making it All Work - Winning at the Game of Work and the Business of Life“:

About the book (from the book’s web site):

David Allen’s Getting Things Done hit a nerve and ignited a movement with businesses, students, soccer moms, and techies all the way from Silicon Valley to Europe and Asia. Now, David Allen leads the world on a new path to achieve focus, control, and perspective. Throw out everything you know about productivity– Making It All Work will make life and work a game you can win. For those who have already experienced the clarity of mind from reading Getting Things Done, Making It All Work will take the process to the next level.

David Allen shows us how to excel in dealing with our daily commitments, the unexpected, and the information overload that threatens to drown us. Making It All Work provides an instantly usable, success-building tool kit for staying ahead of the game.

Making It All Work addresses: how to figure out where you are in life and what you need; how to be your own consultant and a CEO of your life; moving from hope to trust in decision-making; when not to set goals; harnessing intuition, spontaneity, and serendipity; and why life is like business and business is like life.

This eagerly awaited follow-up to Getting Things Done is guaranteed to find an audience in today’s competitive business environment and among David Allen’s many fans.

The book will be available on sale today - I’m getting my copy today!

I’ve asked the readers who signed up for the Productive Magazine mailing list this simple question:

Would you recommend Productive Magazine to a friend?

Here’s just a handful of answers I got:

Not only did I download it, I made everyone I work with at the Magazines download it as well.

Super work you produced. Great job! I will recommend highly.

a resource that I simply have to pass on to all of my Productive Entrepreneurs

Many blogged about the magazine, no wonder we got 20.000 readers in just the first week and the downloads are still going strong… although a little slower every day…

And would you also recommend our magazine?

Please let me know in the comments and send this link to anyone you’d recommend it to. You can also digg this link on digg.com
