Time Management: How to Plan Your Week, Stay Productive and Motivated the Entire Time by Andy Smith is a short guide to ‘straighten one's path.’ This is a good book to get introduced to the idea of management of time and resources, and the tools available for assistance to make one's results better. That enables one in selecting the areas needing greater attention in improving productivity, which can then be subjected to closer scrutiny or correction as needed. The author has taken a friendly approach and avoided jargon while putting across these lofty ideals. An introduction to the tools and techniques extant on these aspects would have been a great help, raising the usefulness of this discussion from the abstract to the practical. A good, introductory book in the broad area of self improvement.
