Zen To Done, ebook Review
This is not a paid review, just so you know. While I am using my referral link, I wrote about this because I think it is a valuable book to purchase.
Recently I bought the new productivity book Zen to done by Leo Babauta of Zen Habits. I read all pages of this book, and I’m glad that I did this purchase with only $9.50.
I think ‘productivity’ are become a term widely used these days and there’s a lot of blogs us actually read as Lifehacker and Zen Habits blog, of course. Usually, I producing very little because I wasting my time doing useless things, while I could use my time for things more productive to me.
Zen to done is all about habit, as Leo blog, what this book trying to teach us is that, once our habit has been formed, then we can change our lives, as well. Leo suggest to prioritise only 2-3 habits at time for at least 30 days in before you can moving to the next habit. Basically, you only need two-three things to have success. This because if you do 6 things at once, you risk not getting any of them done.
According to Leo there are 10 factors that can influence ours habits.
- Collect
- Process
- Plan
- Do
- Simple, trusted system
- Organize
- Review
- Simplify
- Routine
- Find Your Passion
Zen to done includes 83 pages that appearing in a special side-by-side page format and not for printing. It also includes a few pages of resources at the end.
ZTD And GTD
I’ve noticed some similarity between ZTD and GTD. In one of his chapter Leo says: “If you’ve been having trouble with GTD, as great as it is, ZTD might be just for you. It focuses on the habit changes necessary for GTD, in a more practical way, and it focuses on doing, on simplifying, and on adding a simple structure. ”
Leo suggest when you have one goal to only focus on it from a week to a year. Sure, it’s can be hard for most of people included me, because I’m working on too many project at the same time. But, perhaps that is the based of my problem.
