Are You Constantly
 Running Out of Time?

This obsessive-compulsive father of 4 can
help you make sense of your time... and your life.
 

  Bailey is an up-and-coming hotshot realtor--she sold something like 17 houses her very first year.  She's one of those women who's in constant motion--checking her BlackBerry, speed-dialing clients and contractors, and inhaling 3 triple espressos before breakfast.

  Bailey hustles like the wind at the center of a hurricane.

   Now, maybe you know her type.  Or maybe you are her type.

  Bailey is a pleasant, professional, and highly motivated. She's a fierce negotiator, a stylish dresser, and knows more about the foreclosure market than most 20-year veterans.

  But as talented as she is...

She Couldn't Be on Time
to an Appointment If Her
Life Depended on It!

  To be blunt... Bailey's "time management" skills absolutely stink.

  Now, I'm just throwing out a number her, but I'd be willing to bet that if Bailey had had a better handle on her "time management" skills... she could have sold 30 houses that first year.

-- from the Introduction to "How to Manage Your
Time and Organize Your Life"


As you know, trying to fit everything you need to do into a 24-hour day is darn near impossible.  After all, you have to deal with things like... 

The often-unreasonable and time-sensitive demands of your clients... your co-workers... your spouse... and your kids.

An unending barrage of paperwork and clutter.
The unrelenting time pressures of unrealistic work deadlines, carpool, having dinner with your family, etc... and all the crises these can entail.


And this doesn't even count your personal life... you know, spouse, kids, social life, exercise, and (ha, ha) taking the occasional moment for yourself.

Let's face it, you could be given 50 hours every day and you might still feel lie you could only make a dent in everything you need to do.

And not being able to do it all causes constant stress... chaos... and frustration in your life. Which is just plain an unhealthy way to live.

But what if I told you there was a way to make your life a lot easier. I'm not talking about some miracle cure, here... I mean, I can't give you more hours in the day.

But I can sure as heck show you how to make those hours you do have count a lot more than they do now.

What Can James Robert Gratiot
Teach Me That I Don't Already Know?

My name is James Robert Gratiot... and I wear a lot of hats in my own life: father, husband, writer, author, and marketing consultant.

At the root of my existence is my own obsessive-compulsive disorder, which makes me do crazy things like checking my alarm clock 50  times before I go to bed... constantly making sure the stove and over are off... and making a detailed, day-by-day list of every novel I want to read for the next 40 years.

While my OCD might seem a bit strange, my condition has given me some unique insights into time management and personal organization--which are inexorably linked.  I've learned a lot in the past 40+ years... and I'm confident that I can teach you several ways (hopefully without the neurotic behavior) to better manage your time and organize your life.

You see, I've written a short (97-page) book called "How to Manage Your Time and Organize Your Life."  And I've tried as hard as I can to make it practical, easy-to-read, and gimmick-free.  

You'll learn things like...

10 classic obstacles that make managing your time more difficult (page 11).
The important difference between a "priority," a "goal," and an "action step," and why understanding the relationship between them is crucial to living a fulfilling life (page 20).
How shaving 6 minutes a day off your morning routine can earn you an extra year of your life (page 41).
The two most important traits you must learn if you want to keep people from wasting your time (pages 84-85).
How to methodically break down "unreachable" goals into tiny, manageable action steps (page 28).

Why learning to say "no" might be the most important thing you ever learn (page 84).

7 things that all successful goals have in common (page 30).


As you are undoubtedly reminded of every single day, the demands on your time--both professionally and personally--are bordering on insane.  So this book will help you...

How to narrow the gap between how you want to spend your time and how you actually spend your time (page 20).
The 3 vital parts of your to-do list--and there's a good chance you're missing the last one! (page 52).
The surprising answer to the important question: "Why do we organize?" (page 58).
How to conduct a Personal Time Survey--which will depress and inspire you at the same time (page 35).
How to break your life down into 11 categories that will make it easy to figure out your main priorities (page 21).
25 common time wasters that affect most people--how many are you guilty of (page 40)?
How a mentor can save you decades of aggravation (page 33).

But this book doesn't just address your career.  Far from it.  There are some invaluable ways you can tidy up your personal life as well.  For instance, you'll learn... 

7 vital habits you must learn to help keep your daily e-mail avalanche under control (page 72).

5 ways to conquer procrastination--the "thief of time." (page 82).

9 ways to organize your work office for maximum effectiveness (page 60). 
Why most meetings are pure evil--and 35 ways to make your meetings infinitely more productive (page 74).
7 organizational tips to keep you from going crazy in your own home (page 65).
8 ways to deal with the crushing piles of paper in your office--also called The Myth of the Paperless Office (page 63).

How to keep the telephone from sucking away precious minutes in your day--both the calls you make and the calls you receive (page 67).




And if that's not enough, I'll dig even deeper and teach you invaluable skills like...

The one thing you must have before you can effectively manage your time--and I'm constantly amazed at how many people don't have it (page 18).
19 ways to make your to-do list work for you rather than against you (page 54).
The profound fact I learned in my 9th-grade history class that completely changed the way I lived my life (page 25).
3 reasons why you aren't living out your true priorities (page 22).
64 general time management and personal organization tips--for those of you who would rather skim than read (page 89).
5 easy steps toward creating a to-do list that actually works (page 46).

How learning the delicate art of delegation can free  you up to do more important tasks (page 85).


Don't Pay $150 An Hour
To a Time Management Guru

 Now, if you were to get desperate and run out and hire a "time management guru," it would run you something like $150 an hour.  And it would come with strings attached... you know, courses to buy, seminars to buy, you name it.  By the time all was said and done, you would most likely be "time wise but cash poor."

And I'll be honest, I could easily have dolled this book up with meaningless charts and graphics, put it in a sturdy binder, stretched it out to 250 pages... and sold it for $200 or $300.

But that strikes me as just a tad dishonest... and I'm not out to rip anybody off.  So I've made a point of charging a teensy-weensy fraction of what a time management guru would cost... not to mention I don't have anything else for sale.  The price for this book is only $29... whch comes out to less than 8 cents per day... less than you could scrape together underneath your couch cushions.

That's 8 cents a day to learn how to dramatically and permanently change your life.  So that you career thrives... your relationships thrive... and your whole life thrives.
