Download or read book The Checklist Book written by Alexandra Franzen and published by Mango Media Inc.. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master both major and minor tasks—by going back to the basics and writing out a simple checklist. It will change your life. The checklist is one of the world’s oldest—and most effective—productivity systems. If anything, says entrepreneur Alexandra Franzen, it is just as valuable now as it was during the days of the Roman Empire, allowing us to tangibly plan our day and set in stone what we want to accomplish. There are countless apps and organizational systems promising to help us straighten out our lives, but often they only add to the madness and leave us feeling drained and overwhelmed. Learn how to: · Choose your highest priorities · Set realistic goals · Celebrate tiny wins · Feel calmer every day By physically writing down our tasks on a single piece of paper, we force ourselves to be realistic and limit how much we can do in a day. Too often, we cram our day with tasks and chores and leave almost no space for self-care or time with loved ones. We end up disappointed in our inability to complete our never-ending to-do list. Checklists help you accomplish what needs to be done—and enjoy things you want to be doing, too. “There are thousands of books on how to become more organized and productive, but very few have the heart, soul, humor, and gentle encouragement of this book.” —Ellen Fondiler, career and business strategist
Download or read book The Checklist Manifesto written by Atul Gawande and published by Metropolitan Books. This book was released on 2010-04-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling author of Being Mortal and Complications reveals the surprising power of the ordinary checklist We live in a world of great and increasing complexity, where even the most expert professionals struggle to master the tasks they face. Longer training, ever more advanced technologies—neither seems to prevent grievous errors. But in a hopeful turn, acclaimed surgeon and writer Atul Gawande finds a remedy in the humblest and simplest of techniques: the checklist. First introduced decades ago by the U.S. Air Force, checklists have enabled pilots to fly aircraft of mind-boggling sophistication. Now innovative checklists are being adopted in hospitals around the world, helping doctors and nurses respond to everything from flu epidemics to avalanches. Even in the immensely complex world of surgery, a simple ninety-second variant has cut the rate of fatalities by more than a third. In riveting stories, Gawande takes us from Austria, where an emergency checklist saved a drowning victim who had spent half an hour underwater, to Michigan, where a cleanliness checklist in intensive care units virtually eliminated a type of deadly hospital infection. He explains how checklists actually work to prompt striking and immediate improvements. And he follows the checklist revolution into fields well beyond medicine, from disaster response to investment banking, skyscraper construction, and businesses of all kinds. An intellectual adventure in which lives are lost and saved and one simple idea makes a tremendous difference, The Checklist Manifesto is essential reading for anyone working to get things right.

If you have done the activity, check it. And that is all.In the next paragraphs I will focus on the virtues of this book.The virtues of this bookWhat is a checklist? It's a list of things you need to check. Fine, now, why should we need a checklist? Because we tend to forget. Moreover, we tend to pretend we forget. In a word, we procrastinate.So, the checklist will give you the opportunity to kill the procrastinator that lives in you. Plus, you will also remember everything you did for your children. To throw it back to their face when they are grown up. Too often we forget to focus on how many things we do. So, these are some of the virtues of this book.1.It is a checklist for the things that you could do with your kids in the future. If they feel bored on a rainy afternoon, just take the book and find one of the activities that I suggest.2.It can be used as a checklist for the things that you have already done. So, check them all. No problem if your kid is 4, 7 or 12 years old. You still have lots of interesting suggestions to implement. And, of course, you can always go back and check what's missing. 3.It gives a bunch of ideas for new activities to do. Have I already said that?4.It is a sort of family portrait for the things that you did with your family, just like a photo album. In a few years you will look back and see how much time you spent with your family before everything spoilt. It will be a moment of sweet sadness, I promise.5.It is a time and stage reminder.

Moreover, I decided to leave some space for you to fill at the end of some chapters. This book can be read in a few hours, but it is thought out to be finished in years. So don't be hasty.And finally,7.I live in Rome, Italy, and I strongly recommend you to come and visit.
