I really enjoy reading articles and books written by Darius on his specialist subject, productivity. He has a clear, friendly and compelling writing style that draws you in. He motivates you to keep striving to DO better, and live a more meaningful life, and then provides an abundance of ideas and tips to help you do just that.Based on avid research into things like Stoicism and Pragmatism (which he revisits every month to build his mental strength), and his own experience in developing several
The book Do It Today: Overcome Procrastination, Improve Productivity, and Achieve More Meaningful Things is a collection of articles divided into 3 parts, i.e. overcoming procrastination, improving productivity, and achieving more. I started reading it as I was not able to complete a book since the beginning of 2021. What makes this book engaging is that the Author has spoken about his life story, how he started out with his blog in 2015 and how this book is in a way his journey to all the thing...
Memo to myself: don’t forget to take notes of the parts you marked on your kindle :DOther than that:Not everything in this book was new to me - but that‘s also kinda good, because we forget stuff we once knew so easily so it‘s always good to repeat it. Still, I got some new ideas and mindsets I‘m going to play around with, because they seem like they might fit me. I‘m gonna try out lots and am already implementing bits.Biggest plus: This was my „morning read“ and it really motivated me to work o...
We all procrastinate. Procrastination has become a disease. We always postpone things for tomorrow. And it’s not a healthy habit. Do It Today by Dorius Foroux is a book written for all the people out there who want to achieve their goals. It is the authors path and blueprint for overcoming the endless procrastination, improving productivity, and getting more meaningful things done. This book is not about life hacks, productivity tips, or any other tactics. However, this book contains a collectio...
This one was an okayish read. If you know about the author and have been following his articles, then this book would feel so repetitive. I have been following the author and his writing for a while now and a few of his advice worked best for me, hence picked this book only to realize this book (maybe his others) is a collection of his articles put in a bit fancy way. But if you haven't read his articles then go for it. As the name on the cover of the book, it's about procrastination and how to
Absolutely enjoyed this hard-hitting collection of articles. The author does a great job in busting some myths about productivity and has an excellent writing style.
Well, most people, including me tend to procrastinate on many things. So, this was a book which piqued my interest. I found the book useful, though as with much of the self-help literature today, the incremental new concepts or techniques you learn is (very) limited.I liked this book because it is simple, direct, and crisp. The chapters are short, and each gets directly to habits you can develop and action. I was hoping for some neuroscience inputs, which was mostly absent though. Nevertheless,
The book starts with a quote form Abraham Lincoln, "You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today". This happens to be the essence of the book as the author goes on to suggest steps to "Do It Today". However, it is not always the conventional wisdom that Darius suggests. He quotes Wallace D Wattles to drive home an unconventional point: "You get rid of the thought of competition. You are to create, not to compete for what is already created. You do not have to take anythin...
I am a huge admirer of Darius and often read his blogs. The majority of his ideas resonate with me.This book provides sharp, simple, pragmatic insights on how to get tackle procrastination. At times self-help books get overbearing but that's not the case here. The chapters are short providing relevant information. I assume most of them are from his blogs. Overall a good read.I have made many notes (as advised by the author), let's see how many of them can I implement :)
A book on productivity and how to get things done on time without getting anxious and fearful of the deadlines.It's a good reminder of all the things we know and ignores in our daily routines, like planning your day and prioritizing things that are important to you, before the things that are less meaningful and consuming your time and energy for no result.Read to overcome procrastination and do it today.
I found this book through prime reading on Amazon.This book talks about Procrastination and says that we have one life and if we don’t grow everyday then what are we doing ?Not many things in this book are new to us most of the of things are known to us but Darius puts them in such a way that it will be easy to practice on a daily basis. Why and who should pick this book1) Beginners2) Procrastinators3) Easy to read4) To improve productivity
Loved this book!Saw Darius's material originally on Medium,this book is a great offering!Highly recommended!Oren
Simple and useful ideas for living better.
"You can't escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today" by Abraham Lincoln is my favourite quoted sentence in this book.A good read for those like me who are looking to improve productivity in their lives 😅. The author has covered a wide range of topics and explained his own perspectives on them and how changing them have influenced his life.The book is divided into three parts1. Overcome procastination where the author has shared different facts about procastination behaviour and
