While the author&rsquo;s success in blogging about productivity might lead to some skepticism, the concepts of mindful/mindless work and identifying the next actionable step resonate. However, the book suffers from an excess of information and a lack of cohesive focus, feeling more like a compilation of random research than a well-defined guide.</p>
