Look, if you want my deep dive on whether this entire series is worth your time, go hit up my other article first. But if you are just looking for a clean, spoiler-free rundown of the absolute madness that goes down in book one, you are in the right place. Grab your coffee, lock the door, and let me break down how the world ends and the real game begins.
Let’s be real: we all know that feeling of being constantly busy while simultaneously achieving absolutely nothing. You are moving, you are working, you are „doing,“ but at the end of the day, you can’t point to a single thing that actually feels right. I have been stuck in that cycle lately, which is exactly why I picked up Make Time: How to Focus on What Matters Every Day by Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky.
Manhattan was my home base in 2018. It was the most stressful, high-octane year of my life while I was living and studying in the city that never sleeps. Honestly, I still find myself falling back into that 2018 bubble, reliving the grind of the world’s busiest borough.
This is one of the books that changed my life the most. Or maybe not my life, but definitely my creative mindset.
It completely shifted how I think about sharing things on the internet and encouraged me to keep going with this blog… or actually start it the right way.
This book* challenged me to reflect on my own life choices and how I set my priorities…
One of my favorites.
Thanks to Tim Ferris, I actually had two copies at home because I loved giving it as a gift.
