Right off, Eat That Frog! states that no amount of organization or hard work is going to make us more productive. There are so many hours in the day. That can’t be changed.
Instead, we need to look at our work differently. Not only do we have to prioritize but we have to do so properly. It won’t help to do a hundred things in a day if these activities aren’t actually creating revenue or aren’t the best use of our time. Instead, we have to find that one task that is most important to do each day and complete it, even if that job isn’t glamorous or fun. It might even be plain ugly (hence eat that frog). From there, we can eat the next biggest frog and so on.
Essentially, Eat That Frog! shows us how to clarify our vision. Then, we can make the best use of our time. Most of what we do each day is a waste of time anyway. ”
“A very useful little book with many practicial tips to assist in better management of your time. The key is to DO them!”

Yes | No“I'm rating this book a five star based on, how much I improved my life after I read it. I had always been a driven, and compulsive list maker. It was only after I read this book that I realized, I was not "eating that frog!" In other words, I was more focused on crossing items from my list that I missed the fact that I was doing trivial things and procrastinating on the important issues.
I'm a freelance writer, and right after I read the book I had fourteen articles in twelve months! The record has been rising steadily, and I believe I owe it to this little book!”
