Make Time
Jake Knapp, John Zeratsky, 2018
In one paragraph
Do you ever wonder where your day went? Or daydream about activities you'll get to "someday"? Knapp and Zeratsky share their tactics for a four-step daily framework that you can use to systematically re-design your days. Highlight, Laser, Energize, Reflect. You may not be able to add more hours to your day-- but you can learn to make your life your own, day by day. -- adapted from jacket

Key insights
Choose one Highlight for the day. Not a list. The single choice is what makes the rest of the day negotiable in a useful way.
Distraction is a default that has to be actively dismantled, not a weakness to be overcome.
A menu of tactics rather than a system, on the assumption that you cannot restructure your job. That assumption is what makes it usable.
Recognise it early
The failure and the correction sit side by side deliberately. Read the left column asking whether any of it is already true of you.
Too many highlights
Unprotected calendar
Notification overload
Energy crashes
No reflection
The same idea, argued differently
Cal Newport
Stephen Covey

Before you close this
Naming the specific moment you will act roughly doubles the odds you do.
