A self-development book that seems like a long PowerPoint presentation, with tons of quotes from people I never heard of. So I'm supposed to be inspired and motivated by a certain Jonathan Smerkfeese who says "Procrastination. Such a bad, bad thing"?

What I learned from this book, however, is how to write a self-development book. Let me share these ten easy steps with you:

Step number one: Pick a title. Nothing revolutionary. Any mind-numbing sequence of words can turn into a title. The Princess in the Dungeon? Sure! This could be a book about spotting pedophiles.

Step number two: Start with an introduction filled with over-promises. Don't worry about under-delivering; it's the reader's responsibility to change, yours is to get them all psyched up about needing that change.

Step number three: Come up with chapter titles, and dig for random quotes to use at the beginning of each chapter.

Step number four: Write small paragraphs of supposedly motivating and inspiring bunkum. Write as many paragraphs as possible. Don't be shy, repeat the same point over and over again until you bring it home, then take it out again, then back home again.

Step number five: Do not forget to throw in as many general statements as possible. "A lot of Americans think... All successful people say... Everyone knows that..." The fountain of credibility. This is it. Drink from it and quench everyone's thirst.

Step number six: Include a step-by-step guide to something. Anything. The "step-by-step" part is irrelevant; the order doesn't matter.

Step number seven: Come up with an acronym, then design a method around it. Like, from the top of my head, the S.N.A.C.K. method. What is the mighty S.N.A.C.K. method you ask? I'm glad you got that curiosity gene in you! S.N.A.C.K. stands for Stare Nonchalantly At Cute Kid. Learn to identify people with the S.N.A.C.K. behavior, and you got yourself a certificate, delivered personally from me, on how to spot pedophiles.

Step number eight: Tell people what to do. Tell the reader to close one eye, lift an arm 67掳 in the air, lean on the fridge, and then proceed to remember all the people they saw in the mall that day, for potential pedophiles.

Step number nine: Go crazy with formatting. Bold, underline and italicize. As Rose Taxtbeest says, "When you italicize words, you actually put pretty dresses on them."

Step number ten: At the end of each chapter, no matter how short and irrelevant, present the reader with a quick summary. Then, add borders to that block of text. Whatever you said there has now become official and formal.

That's it. If you can write/type, you can be an author. There is a readership out there for every kind of hokum.

Think on paper.
1. Write down your goals, set deadlines, list steps to achieve goals, organize steps into a plan by priority and sequence, do something every day on your highest-impact goal.
Do now: list 10 goals. Pick your highest-impact goal, set a deadline, make a plan, take action.
2. Make a master list of everything you want to do, make a list for the coming month, make a list for the coming week and for the next day. When planning a project, list all the steps and organize them by priority and sequence.
Do now: list everything to be done in the next 24 hours, list all projects. For each goal/project, prioritize and sequence the tasks involved.
3. Work on the 20% of the tasks that contribute to high value results first. Don't clear up small tasks first.
Do now: list key goals, activities, projects, responsibilities. Decide which 20% of these tasks will contribute 80% of results (Pareto principle).
4. Think long term: 5, 10, 20 years. 'The law of Forced Efficiency says that "There is never enough time to do everything, but there is always enough time to do the most important thing."' What are my highest value activities? What can I and only I do that will make a real difference? What is the most valuable use of my time right now?
Do now: Work on the most valuable task right now.
5. Outsource, delegate, eliminate.
Do now: Abandon activities that aren't contributing to goals.
6. ABCDE tasks: A tasks are high priority, B tasks must be done eventually, C tasks might be nice, D tasks can be delegated, E tasks should be eliminated.
Do now: go through your list of tasks and label them ABCDE.
7. key result areas of management are planning, organizing, staffing, delegating, supervising, measuring, and reporting.
key result areas of sales are prospecting, building rapport and trust, identifying needs, presenting persuasively, answering objections, closing the sale, and getting resales and referrals.
Do now: Determine your key result areas. Grade your performance in each area. Make a plan to improve in the areas where you're worst.
8. List the three most important goals in: career, family, financial, health, development, social/community, problems/concerns. Spend quality time at work and quantity time at home.
Do now: work when you're working
9. Prepare your workspace and get on with the job.
Do now: clean your desk.
10. Take it one step at a time.
Do now: select a goal you've been procrastinating on, list the steps, and do one.
11. Never stop learning. Read in your field one hour each day. Take courses and seminars. Listen to audio programs in your car.
Do now: identify key skills that you need to learn and make a plan to learn one.
12. What are you good at? What do you do easily and well that is difficult for other people? Looking back at your career, what has been most responsible for your success in life and work to date? What have been the most significant frogs you have eaten in the past? What is it that you do that gets you the most compliments and praise from other people? What do you do that positively affects the work and performance of other people more than anything else?
Do now: focus your plans so that you're doing the things you're best at.
13. Identify what is holding you back, what is the limiting factor.
Do now: Determine the constraint that is most impeding your progress toward your most important goal.
14. Create your own deadlines.
15. Take care of your health:sleep, eating, exercise.
16. Practice positive self talk. Positive mental attitude: look for the good in every situation, 'difficulties come not to obstruct but to instruct,' look for the solution to every problem, think and talk continually about your goals.
Do now: control your thoughts, accept responsibility for what happens to you, don't criticize or blame others, focus forward.
17. Don't become addicted to technology.
Do now: Turn off technology for one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon. Take a day off each week from keeping in touch with the world through technology.
18. Break down tasks in order to feel good about making progress. Salami: outline a task in detail and complete a slice. Swiss cheese: work for 5-10 minutes on a task.
19. Schedule blocks of time and eliminate distractions.
20. Build up momentum as you work fast. Create your own sense of urgency. "Do it now! Do it now! Do it now!" or "Back to work! Back to work! Back to work!"
Do now: When you are given a task or responsibility, take care of it quickly and report back fast.
21. Don't be stopping and starting your task.

I finished this book a couple of days ago..........and I wanted to put a review in right away to get it in at the top of the week, but there was the Super bowl, then Monday I had to make dog food (you did read that correctly), last night Justified was on.....and that needs your full attention. This morning I had class for my Ballot Judge position for the primary March 6 (that promises to be a clusterf#楼k my friends). Now I'm stuck at work, and have to type this out on my IPad which is not the fastest way to type, so that's annoying. Customers keep coming up, wanting to buy something.....the nerve.

Like majority of the human race, I have some procrastination issues,. So I thought I'd pickup the classic, but unfortunately named, Eat That Frog for some guidance. This book is full of great common sense tools to get yourself to do what you'd rather not do. Basically what you need to do is make lists. On the top of that list you put the thing you would rather avoid doing the most. This would be your "Frog". Then do that thing first, or eat that frog......then work your way down that list from the next slightly smaller, less ugly frog, down to prime rib, Oreos, tacos and cherry pie at the end of the list, if you could ever get there.

This book is geared toward the work environment, specificity office type work, which is not what I do. I draw people for a living (from life), so when the author wrote about picking out the most difficult thing you would all day to do first, I imagined picking out the screaming two year old from the crowd first, followed by the stumbleing drunk......ect.

So, I do plan to eat some frogs right after I beat a few people on Words With Friends.

This is a book that will help you to escape from the habit of procrastination. Before reading this book, please understand that we will all have to procrastinate on one thing or another at some point in our life. So please don't succumb to toxic positivity and unrealistic goals before starting this book. It would be best if you also were careful to avoid procrastination reaching extreme levels that affect the quality of your life.

All the methods mentioned in this book can't be applied in everyone's life. Some methods mentioned by the author were helpful in my case. So please try to find out which one out of the 21 points is more practical in your case before trying to implement them in your life. If you can judiciously use this book by keeping all the points mentioned above in the back of your mind, this book might become beneficial for you.

21 ways to stop procrastination
1. Write your goals and objectives before you start and set the table.

2. Plan every day in advance by writing it down on paper.

3. Apply the 80/20 Rule to everything by concentrating on the top 20 percent, which contributes to 80 percent of your results

4. Consider the positive and negative consequences of your most important tasks and priorities.

5. Try to put off the tasks that are less useful by creative procrastination.

6. Use the ABCDE Method continually for prioritizing and doing the first things first.

7. Focus on key result areas that you need to produce a result to complete your job well

8. Identify the three things (The Law of Three) you do in your work that account for 90 percent of your contribution, and try to complete them first before doing anything else.

9. Prepare thoroughly before you begin by keeping all the necessary work materials near you.

10. Break your work into simpler steps and try to complete them one by one (Take it one oil barrel at a time).

11. Upgrade your key skills to complete your job quickly

12. Leverage your special talents by finding your strong area and doing it in the best possible way.

13. Identify your key constraints to increase productivity by decreasing the troubles you will have to face.

14. Put the pressure on yourself by imagining that you have to leave town for a month, and work as if you had to get all your major tasks completed before you left.

15. Find the time of the day when your productivity is high and try to do the demanding tasks at that time and thus maximize your personal power

16. Motivate yourself into action by trying to find the positive in every situation.

17. Use technology to increase productivity without getting addicted to it (Get out of the technological time sinks)

18. Slice and dice the task and start small like Kaizen.

19. Create large chunks of time and use the majority of the time for your important tasks.

20. Develop a sense of urgency by trying to do things quickly and perfectly.

21. Single-handle every task by setting priorities and starting immediately on your most important task, and then work without stopping until the job is 100 percent complete.


Some of the above points might appear silly to some of you. I must confess that a few of them are indeed silly if we consider the practical aspect compared to a few people's maturity level and personality. But I must admit that some other points mentioned above are beneficial and has the power to change your life in the best possible manner.

I read this book and I think its not bad. It is full of useful tools and tips to get you to stop procrastinating. But there are better books out there. The best book I've read on this topic is the Procrastination Elimination Method by John Isaac. It's not really famous.. its like a hidden gem. It addresses the core experiences and perceptions that cause procrastination to begin with.

I give 3 stars to Eat That Frog because the author seems to have put in a lot of effort.

Nothing revolutionary, but a good (and quick) recap of the things we need to do to get stuff done.

The key premise is that if we ate a live frog first thing in the morning, everything else would be easy compared to that. It's a good reminder to concentrate on the most important task instead of getting mired down in the smaller, unimportant ones.

The author gives 21 steps to getting things done:

01. Set the table (spend some time writing out your goals for year, month and week). Prioritize those and concentrate on the most important ones.
02. Plan your day in advance (on paper).
03. 80/20 rule: 20% of your work will constitue 80% of your acheivements. Concentrate on that 20%.
04. Consider the consequences of what you choose to work on.
05. ABCDE method. Organize your tasks by value (a,b,c...) and priority (1,2,3...).
06. Focus on key result areas.
07. Obey the law of forced efficiency.
08. Prepare thoroughly. The 6Ps: Proper Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance. If you're Rob Lowe you can use the 7Ps ;p.
09. Do your homework! If you're not improving, you're getting worse.
10. Leverage your talents.
11. Identify your key constraints.
12. Take it one barrel at a time (baby steps).
13. Put pressure on yourself.
14. Maximize personal powers. Select the key times of the day when you are most productive and work on your tasks at those times.
15. Motivate yourself (be your own cheerleader).
16. Practice creative procrastination. You're not going to be able to get everything done so put off the less important tasks.
17. Do the most difficult task first (eat that frog).
18. Slice and dice your tasks. Break your tasks into smaller, more manageable chunks.
19. Create large blocks of time to get your work done.
20. Develop a sense of urgency.
21. Single-handle every task.

The whole book boils down to "do the hardest task first" and "make checklists." Not exactly rocket science, but I gotta admit I'm finding myself using the catchy phrase "Eat That Frog!" as a reminder to stop putting off daunting tasks. And I love checklists. Since I'm currently in a moment of high stress time management, it's exactly what I needed to hear. To really save time, listen to the audio version. It's unabridged and only 2.5 hours.

Eat your big and ugliest frog first

This book is aimed at any working professional with tips and tricks to improve your productivity and do good in life in general.

Any working professional who鈥檚 having a tough time at work, doing overtime and under achieving then this book is a must read. It offers 21 rules right from organising your work place, prioritising your tasks and decent amount of practical advice to shift your mindset towards success.

This book can be completed in a single stretch but it鈥檚 highly encouraged to take your time, absorb the content and put it into practical use and keep revisiting from time-to-time when you feel like you鈥檙e getting side tracked.

The dictionary meaning of the word procrastination is 鈥渢he action of delaying or postponing something鈥�. However, the real meaning is 鈥渢he creative reason you are showcasing, for not finishing something鈥�. The quick response from our mind is that if procrastinating is bad, how can we overcome it. That鈥檚 where this quick read 鈥淓at that Frog鈥� by Brian Tracy helps.

The name of the book is also one of the main concepts taught and its name is derived from a quote from Mark Twain, who famously said:

"Eat a live frog first thing in the morning and nothing worse will happen to you the rest of the day."

The idea is that if you finish a task that you're inclined to procrastinate on each morning, you can go about your day knowing you've completed it, and the rest of your day will be easy in comparison.

There are 21 chapters and each chapter introduces a different idea, tip, or technique that will help you overcome procrastination and get more things done.

3 things I liked:
1. The principle of handling the biggest and most difficult task first is solid and in most scenarios, I cannot argue with the logic of doing so.
2. The book does not provide a complete, step-by-step strategy, but if you are new to time management and productivity, 鈥淓at That Frog!鈥� book is a great introduction, as it provides the reader with some food for thought and a good amount of ideas to try if you鈥檙e serious about being more productive daily.
3. Lays out actionable tasks at the end of each chapter that you can use to help become more organized and procrastinate less.

Brian Tracy gives simple and easily acted-upon suggestions for stream lining and maximizing your productivity. The title itself, Eat That Frog!, refers to completing the biggest, ugliest task you may have on your plate on any given day. If you do whatever that is first (the frog), in the morning when you're at your most energetic and before anything else distracts you, then at least you can say you got something done today. Most everything else will seem almost easy by comparison... at least, that's the theory.

At first, I thought all of the ideas in this book sounded almost too simple. But as the short audiobook continued, it became more clear just why Tracy is considered one of the leaders in his field of expertise.

Taken altogether, this book gives someone the tools to turn their life around (if they're in a bad place) or take them to the next level, if they're already on their way. It's not just about learning tools to boost your efficiency, it's also about discovering what you do best and then prioritizing doing THAT to the best of your ability.

The most intriguing idea in here, to me, was "practice creative procrastination". As we couldn't possibly get everything done that we ever have to do in one day, by doing the things that MUST get done, you can procrastinate on the things that won't sink the ship if they're left undone. You're doing things, yet not doing things and feeding the inner procrastinator. It's like having your cake and eating it too.

I'm not a big procrastinator. What I am is a collector of ideas and methods. I'm always open to improving myself or the way that I do things. In fact, I can be too gung-ho when it comes to implementing some of the ideas I read in self-help books. For example, a couple years ago I changed my life through "the magic of tidying up" and was so successful at removing the knick-knacks littering the house that my husband thought I was moving out.

But seriously, I can take things to the extreme. So, I'm encouraged that this book mainly consists of writing lists, scheduling and prioritizing tasks. That shouldn't freak out the hubby.

And I do find myself doing other, less important things when a big, fat frog of a chore is staring me in the face. At least now, I'm aware of what I'm doing and knowledge is the first step on the road to change.

Recommended for readers looking for a few simple tips to maximize their productivity.

I gritted my teeth through this whole book. Having just re-read the exceptional , by David Allen, this book felt poorly-written, poorly-organized, and poorly conceived. The author is brutal and his suggestions mostly make me want to run the other way. Get up early. Stay up late. Nose to the grindstone. Work work work work work work work. The most successful people work work work work work work work. He offers billions of made-up statistics (citing no sources) for what separates the productive people from the unproductive people. Ugh.

But, I kept reading because, (A) the book is very short, and (B) I got a couple of useful ideas from it. I would give the book one and a half stars, if I could, because the two ideas I got from the book that were useful were, actually, very useful:

Eat that frog: Do (or begin) the hardest thing you have to do or the thing you are the most inclined to procrastinate about first and then everything else you have to do will feel easier by comparison.

80/20: There are many things on your to-do list, but about 20% of them will have more of an impact on your life than the other 80%. Those are the ones you are most likely to procrastinate on, because they are the things that have the most weight to them, but they are not necessarily any more time-consuming than the rest of the tasks you have to do which will have less of a positive impact on your life. Aim to do more of the tasks in the 20% and de-prioritize the other 80% of the tasks.

Now that you've read my summary of the best points in the book, you don't have to read the book, yourself. Save yourself the trouble. Read , instead. It's much better. But even that's not as good as . Nobody does it like David Allen.

This is a great book, and to tell you the truth, I鈥檝e got frogs jumping all over my desk and they are the mean and ugly kind. I know the rules, I know the techniques and I鈥檒l happily return to them as soon as I finish reading all my GR Friends鈥� reviews, and the stack of books on my computer, tablets, and telephones 鈥� and oh, I really want to tackle that closet, and try some new recipes, oh, oh, and I鈥檇 like to go out for half an hour to see what鈥檚 new at the supermarket, the deck could really use a scrub, I haven鈥檛 taken my walk yet today, and I absolutely have to update and reload my Xiaomi box with the latest apps for movies and TV programs that I will never watch. That list on my desk grows longer and longer, as I add more and more things that I really want to prioritize.

What鈥檚 a person to do? I love all my bad habits and vices. Let鈥檚 face it, the more interests and opportunities for immediate gratification available, the less likely I鈥檒l be willing to squander all those delectable endorphins on eating frogs!

When the frogs are threatening to eat me, that is when I step up to the plate and get the jobs done.

Seriously though, if you haven鈥檛 figured out these methods on your own, or if you need to be reminded how great you鈥檒l feel if you can sleep all night without worrying about all the work piling up on your desk, you really should read Tracey鈥檚 book.

"There is never enough time to do everything you have to do. You are literally swamped with work and personal responsibilities, projects, stacks of magazines to read....But the fact is you are never going to caught up. You will never get on top of your tasks"

The key is: Prioritize your tasks!

That's the book in three words! But how?! Brian Tracy will show you how in this book, Eat That Frog! The ugly one first!

Very practical book. You would love this book if you actually applied the exercises throughout the book, and re-read it again and again. Books that are for personal development or business require active reading, taking notes, and reading again, until the knowledge you learn becomes a part of you. I have an audio copy and I still listen to it every once on a while, whenever I feel I'm getting behind on some tasks, or whenever I stop practicing some of it's methods. This books helped me a lot and it still helping me all the time. From the ABCD method, the creative procrastination, developing plans, considering the consequences, and much more.

This is my all time reference for better future, since I first read it. I wish I was told about this book early in time. Very early. It's a very useful tool, applicable methods.

A very basic collection of tips to beat procrastination. Geared very much toward sales and "business" people. Nothing really groundbreaking.

I was intrigued by how much the advice ran completely counter to much more valuable (to me) guide for professional creatives found in . In contrast to that book's encouragement to respect your natural rhythms, take rest, and refill the well, Eat That Frog seemed more about ignoring your intuition and grinding away at thankless chores until you somehow "arrive" as a success.

Maybe that was the real problem for me. There was nothing here about enjoying the process, or the satisfaction of mastery. It was all about beating yourself into submission to win some external success, like a raise or a promotion.

Even when the author mentions the now basic idea of getting into flow () he completely misstates the entire concept, claiming that the trick to achieving it was to be work ever faster and somehow force your brain into some sort of mental hyperspeed, an idea that is found nowhere in Cs铆kszentmih谩lyi's book.

The more I remember about this book, the less I like it.

Bottom line: If you're looking for a short collection of oversimplified self-psychology hacks to help you climb the corporate ladder, that this might be the book for you.

If you're looking for anything deeper, keep moving.

Brian Tracey puts together a book full of useful ideas on how to be more productive.

His chapter summaries on p113 are a good resource to review.

1. Set the table: Decide what you want
2. Plan the day in advance: Think on paper
3. Apply the 80/20 rule: 20% of activity produces 80% of the results
4. Consider the consequences: of your 20% activities
5. Practice creative procrastination: put off things of low value
6. Use the A B C D E Method continually: prioritize
7. Focus on key result areas: concentrate on results you HAVE to have
8. The Law of Three: ID and focus on the top three before anything else
9. Prepare thoroughly before you begin: get set up to get things done
10. Take it one oil barrel at a time: do it one step at a time
11. Upgrade your key skills: sharpen your sword to do more and better
12. Leverage your special talents:do things are good at wholeheartedly
13. Identify your key constraints: get rid of bottlenecks, choke points
14. Put pressure on yourself: think like you are on vacation tomorrow
15. Maximize your personal power: work hard at your best times of day
16. Motivate yourself into action: look at the positive now and move on
17. Get out of tech sinks: tech stuff can be time killers
18. Slice and dice the task: break it down, do one piece
19. Create large chunks of time: to focus on certain things
20. Develop sense of urgency: move fast on key tasks
21. Single handle every task: start and fully complete most imp't task

馃檵After a long time, I finally picked up a self-help book which I have been wanting to read for years.

For a pro who's amazing at procastination, I have been procrastinating doing the same but this time I had to pick it up and actually read the physical copy so that I get the maximum benefit out of it.

First of all, it doesn't preach.
Second, it doesn't tell you fixed rules.
Third, it is not intimidating.
Fourth, there are no unnecessary details.
Fifth, it talks about only one topic, that is, get the most difficult or that one thing that would benefit you the most to be done with realistic, efficient ways and methods.

The summary towards the end of each chapter keeps you focused and evaluate. But I love the summary towards the end of the book so much! It is everything I needed.

I love how this book focused on only one topic but elaborating various methods or means to achieve this one task.

The chapters are really short. The writing doesn't waste words. It is as real as it gets.

This book is actually helping me these days and I am so glad a self-help book actually works. I have been following this concept for the past one month. And I am still following it. Surprisingly surprising myself 鈽猴笍

So is it effective? You bet!

I saw the author, Brian Tracy, several years ago at a seminar as a motivational speaker and became a fan. Needed some extra motivation on getting tasks done recently and 'Eat That Frog' definitely helps with re-prioritizing things on the task list and making a plan to get them done. Listening to the audio book is even that more effective. Here are the notes I made while listening (his major principles):

Decide what I want. Plan every day in advance. 20% of my activities are 80% of my results - and these are the tasks we usually procrastinate the most on. Consider the consequences of not completing the tasks. Prioritize the task list, start with the most important. Focus on my key result areas. Always do the most important things first. Continually upgrade my skills, even if only for 15 minutes a day. Leverage my special talents. Identify the constraints and find ways to alleviate them. Break down huge tasks into smaller steps. Pressure myself with a sense of urgency. Figure out my high points of energy in the day and schedule my most demanding tasks then. Be optimistic and focus on the solution, not the problem. I am allowed to procrastinate on low value tasks. Do the most difficult task (frog) first thing in the mroning. Create larger blocks of time for key tasks. Do nothing else until your main task is done - no multi-tasking.

驴QU脡 SAPO, DICES, QUE ME HE DE TRAGAR馃槺?
Porque, a ver, si es de chocolate, se hace el esfuerzo (que no se diga que no lo he intentado馃き)

馃尭Pero y, 驴si te dijera que el SAPO en cuesti贸n es tu mayor 脡XITO?

馃尭S铆, s茅 que ahora te he pillado en fuera de juego y que me miras en plan: "He? Je ne comprend pas"馃お

馃尭Bien, imagina que tienes un mont贸n de cosas que hacer hoy (te lo estoy poniendo dif铆cil, 驴verdad馃き?) Y, que entre ese l铆o de cosas hay una que te har谩 BRILLAR por encima de todas las dem谩s! Pero, ojo, solo UNA!

馃尭驴Cu谩l tarea realizar铆as antes?

馃尭贰齿础颁罢翱!
Te comer铆as primero ese SAPO, 驴no?

馃尭"Claro", me dir谩s, pero tambi茅n un: "Pero 驴c贸mo s茅 yo cu谩l es el sapo que tengo que comerme primero?馃"

馃尭Muy sencillo, Brian Tracy te ayuda a descubrirlo a trav茅s de un mont贸n de ejercicios y de HAZLO AHORA, antes de seguir leyendo馃ぉ. Con ellos, te gu铆a para que descubras tu m谩ximo potencial y hac铆a d贸nde debes enfocar tus esfuerzos para obtener tus mayores LOGROS.

RECUERDA: El sapo que tienes que tragar PRIMERO es el que te har谩 BRILLAR!

馃尭Por cierto, yo ya estoy poniendo en pr谩ctica lo que he aprendido y solo puedo decirte una cosa: ABRAN CANCHA, QUE VOY CON LA DIRECTA PUESTA馃敟!
