Master Your Workday Now: Proven Strategi

If you are interested in improving your work life productivity and be more fulfilled at the same time, this book is for you. Michael Linenberg developed his concept the “Workday Now” solution from over thirty years of experience in the business world when he found reoccurring issues for different people that left them often frustrated and dreading to go to work the next day. Many people feel bogged down and stressed with a flood of mails every day, too many meetings robbing their valuable work time, and not having enough time to get everything done. To help with those issues, the author`s approach is a fantastic way to a more satisfying work life and goes way beyond mere organisational advice. The concept is simple, yet profund. It consists of 3 levels: Control – Create – Connect. The basis of the concept is CONTROL by managing your urgency zones. A large part of Workday Mastery is a mental one. A new way of looking at your work. Michael Linenberger developed a wonderful concept that frees up mental thinking capacities and reduces stress. He uses new techniques I havn`t seen anywhere else before – and which are highly effective to change your perspective and get on top of your tasks! The second layer CREATE goes beyond organisational techniques. It provides fantastic exercises for setting and reaching your larger outcomes and teaches a new and profound Workday Now approach to fulfilling your work goals. The third layer CONNECT advances on goal setting. It is about finding a vision and purpose and how to connect it to your work life to achieve satisfaction with your career. This is particularly useful for someone wishing they could make a bigger mark in the world. This book provides you with a lot of resources you can check out if you still want to learn more on those topics after reading this book. Very useful is the download page with many templates accompanying this book which helps you to start right away to get your workday under control. I personally love the very clear structure that mirrors the simplicity of the Workday Now approach. Me being still a “book and paper person”, I like that Linenberger shows how we can use his concept both with the good old notepad as well as digitally with our computers (and smartphones). The holistic approach in which the author combines a lot of great insights from different resources rounds out the picture of a wonderful self-help book. After implementing many different other approaches on getting myself organized and not being very successful with them, I can say about my own experience with the Workday Now concept: it works!
