Productivity Beast: An Unconventional Guide To Getting Things Done (INCLUDES A FREE WORKBOOK)

Let your inner beast rip your inner procrastinator to shreds!
A thinking man’s guide to increasing productivity, which presents straight forward and no-nonsense wisdom about how to become more productive in your life. I love how it helps you define what productivity should be for your own life, rather than telling you what productivity should be for all people. Another thing I really like is how it provides a realistic look at money and productivity. I feel that so many people these days are trying to either show us how to get rich quick, or telling us to ditch the concept of money altogether and find your true passion. Those ideals are great, but for those of us living in the real world, we want to do both. And this book focuses on achieving those seemingly opposing ideals in a realistic manner, so that ultimately, our increased productivity can lead to increased happiness and living a satisfying life. Because after all, that’s what we’re all trying to achieve, isn’t it?

A brief summary of random methods
This book isn’t bad. The author seems to have read many of the mainstream books on productivity and then selected a few of his favorite methods. It reads a bit like the output of a ChatGPT summary without any clear overarching theme or unique insight. But if you just want a few paragraphs on a bunch of different productivity methods, you might like it. It’s very short.

Productive in Beast Mode
Another great wealth of knowledge to help boost your productivity into beast mode. Highly recommended and completely agree with all the tactics and techniques that Thibaut explains. Read this today!

Don’t buy
Don’t care for it.

If how to be productive had a roadmap, this book would be that roadmap. There are so many examples in this book, that if you follow them you will become more productive than you ever thought possible. You will earn time back, which allows you to create new ways to improve your life.

This book was my first on productivity. I read it once, and intend to read it again soon.The author does a pretty good job explaining why people procrastinate and ways to avoid falling into that pit. He also gives a workbook with a step by step guide, which is very thorough and it does make you think about yourself. I personally didn’t like the way you get your free workbook: “input your e-mail address here and I will send you your file” (that sounds awfully like every other “self-help” website out there, including the possibility of spam; I checked his website and found a privacy policy, though no mention of spam). But hey, it’s free.The writing style is pleasant and easy to read. Keep in mind that there are problems with the text, mostly missing articles and prepositions, as well as your odd or downright wrong lexical choice. But who cares? Only a grammar Nazi like myself would be bothered by such frivolities.One point I would like to mention is that, at the end of every section or point of discussion, the author will ask you the same repetitive questions. Don’t get me wrong: the objective IS to make you take a hard look at yourself and think about your priorities etc. That is absolutely necessary to change beliefs and habits. And lazy readers like myself have frequent reminders. However, I wish those reminders would have a different font type or contained inside a box with an exclamation mark.The text itself will motivate you and it will make you all excited about starting a new goal, and being efficient at the same time while doing it. Kudos to the author.The visual part of the book is simple; maybe a bit too spartan. But the price/benefit ratio of this book is pretty high in my opinion.TL,DR: good read. Do yourself a favor and buy this cheap e-book.
