Manage Your Day-to-Day: Build Your Routine, Find Your Focus, and Sharpen Your Creative Mind (The 99U Book Series) Book Riview

This is one of those books that you want to keep around and refer to when you feel you're getting bogged down with "stuff". It's a collection of essays/articles on time management and life/work balance from various authors. Some are practical, others based on scientific studies but all are easy to read and full of ideas for working and living better. Many of the articles refer to creative work, particularly writing, but in my opinion, all work is creative and these tips will work for everyone.

Since I read these types of books/articles a lot, I was surprised to find so many new insights - and to actually feel energized. I'm guessing it's because instead of being "the one method you must use", there are very many viewpoints, tips and suggestions. Some of them seem contradictory - like work for hours vs work in short blocks - but as you read the essays, some will resonate with you as "the way" that will work for you.
