Coincise, actionable and great advice. Though I need to stop reading about productivity and go do some work instead. There's only so much you can learn via tips/advice/etc, if you don't implement the "techniques" you read about, you'll never get anywhere.

Good as productivity books go? He's the kind of person who tells you his productivity increased when he started working only 6 days a week instead of 7.

非常非常“干”的一本书。从局外人的角度来看,作者对自己可说是相当狠。但如果通读全文,就能发现其人是在享受这种生活方式而非苦中作乐。99个提高效率的方法,每一篇都短小精悍。简而言之一个字“干”。没有任何废话,直接告诉你他本人是怎么做的,并把背后的道理用几句话总结放在首或尾。但这个99是有凑数的嫌疑。某些段落应该合并为一节,却被强行分拆;有些内容明显重复,这点比较鸡贼。从内容上看,作者明显吸收了大量时间及任务管理类著作,尤其是GTD类的书,全篇多处提及相关内容。但是就像一些教材一样,并不去解释撰写人以为属于常识的知识点。所以若是不适应这位理科男的超快叙述节奏,不妨先阅读几本提及的这些作品再看完全书。另外,这本书相当挑人。很明显作者是个执行力很强、自制力可怕的狠人。如果不能体会到他的这种生活态度,就会觉得书中内容不切实际、难以实现。
