'Enjoy Time: Stop rushing. Get more done' by Catherine Blyth is an ebook about time management.

In a series of 5 chapters, 20 lessons are given on better ways to think about time. Interspersed with creative graphics there are chapters based on not chasing the clock and how time changes speed. Each chapter includes a toolkit and links and books for further learning.

The bite-size chapters make this an easy book to pick up for inspiration, even if the content is hardly new.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Quarto Publishing Group - White Lion Publishing, and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

Another book in this series I am not huge about. There are nice points but I could not full grasp them because of how it is presented.

If this is the first productivity book you've ever read, you'd probably give it 4 or 5 stars.
I've read several such books and I didn't find anything new in this one.
Practical tips are spread out between long narratives and discussions of the basic problem we all know about.
I would have preferred more practical advice and less philosophizing.

I enjoyed this book and think it will be helpful as I incorporate some of its ideas into my family. It talks about time management, but not in a "pack more into your day by making lists" type of way. It helps you truly THINK about TIME, what it means to you, and how your perceptions of it and your actions can be manipulated without your knowledge. For instance, how colors and music tempo affect all of us, how a perceived lack of time changes our actions, and that there are differences in walking pace based on climate and other factors. This book has helpful suggestions about how to take back my time and use it how I choose, and enjoy time more in the process!

Do you enjoy time or is time ruling you? Are you always rushing but never finishing all you need to do? Does free time make you anxious because of a need to always be productive? Are you able to step away from your devices? The questions could go on and on and there are many good ones.

In this book the author helps the reader to slow down, to think about time, about family, about friends, about work and other things that we each find meaningful. Through text and helpful suggestions, readers will come away with a sense that their lives could be so much better when they are aware and perhaps more highly value their time.

In this reviewer's opinion, you should take the time to read this book!

Feeling like a hamster on the well most of the time, without any chance to see better, quality-driven ways to spend your time? If instead of running and running through time with anything else left to do you might stop for a while and decide to dramatically switch towards a more enjoyable life time, the perspective might switch too. Enjoy Time: Stop rushing. Be more productive offers solutions for both private and professional life, for a completely and quality-oriented daily timeplan. The book has many examples and suggestions, theoretical insights and a rich bibliography that can help or at least to offer a different perspective from the other side of the hamster well.
Recommended to both workaholics and slow life humans, interested in changing a bit their approach to their time life.
