Getting Productive
Getting Productive
Every month, I run a small Business Club where fellow business owners come together to learn and grow through powerful business books. This month, we’re diving into Eat That Frog by Brian Tracy; a classic productivity guide that has transformed the way I work for nearly a decade.
Eat That Frog is centered around one key idea: how to get more done in your day by focusing on the most important tasks first. The title itself comes from the concept that if the first thing you do each morning is eat a live frog (your biggest, most important task), you’ll go through the rest of the day knowing the hardest part is already behind you.
When I first read this book nearly 10 years ago, its principles stuck with me. Since then, they’ve helped me stay incredibly organised ,not because I have a great memory (I really don’t!), but because I follow a system. And this system works.
One of the most valuable takeaways is applying the 80/20 rule, which means identifying the 20% of your tasks that deliver 80% of the results. By focusing your time and energy on those high-impact tasks, you start the day with momentum and avoid the chaos of trying to do everything at once.
Planning ahead is another game-changer.
I map out my day with full awareness of who I’m meeting, what deadlines are looming, and what truly needs to be done. This level of preparation keeps me clear, focused, and productive, without feeling overwhelmed.
If you’re tired of feeling like you’re always behind or constantly juggling too many things, Eat That Frog is the perfect book to help shift your mindset and habits.
