Synopsis

Dominate your day and level up your life, using the secrets and habits of highly effective people. A practical guide from the behavioural scientist behind the #1 ranking Australian business podcast How I Work.

Learn how to become time wise using the hacks that high achievers rely on to accomplish more than the average person – so you can do your best work and have fun while doing it.

Organisational psychologist Dr Amantha Imber has interviewed more than 150 bestselling authors, musicians, entertainers, entrepreneurs and business leaders for her podcast, How I Work, to get inside their heads and understand the routines and rituals that enable them to achieve their purpose.

Three years and over 3 million podcast downloads later, she has uncovered a wealth of proven strategies that anyone can adopt to improve their productivity, work and lifestyle – whether you are a CEO, working parent, small business owner or university student.

In this clear and value-packed book, Amantha brings together all the gems she’s learned from her conversations with guests including Adam Grant, Dan Pink, Cal Newport, Mia Freedman, Turia Pitt, B.J. Fogg, Sandra Sully, Kochie, Gary Mehigan and Gretchen Rubin, to name just some.

Covering energy, efficiency, decision-making, self-talk, digital distractions and more, Amantha’s practical and research-backed guide will allow you to shortcut your way to achieving more in less time, with less stress and greater joy.

                        Time Wise seems to gently nudge us toward the idea that we live not in the future, but in choosing the present. I particularly resonated with the idea of ​​not wasting time, especially on doubts. Interestingly, I soon read the Invent Help reviews — people there discussed their attempts to launch innovations, sharing both successes and disappointments. It all felt like a continuation of the book: about the time we devote to our ideas and the importance of not giving up even after mistakes.
