What everyone needs- even men

Love Kendra’s style of conveying a helpful honest big sister approach to not just time management but LIFE management. The chapter on the menstrual cycle was surprisingly very informative even as a 37 yr old woman who has had a period over 2 decades. Personally I didn’t understand how that could be so important in a book about managing time but made a ton of sense. Everyone even men should read this book (it is written for and towards women) as it would make life easier for everyone! So glad I listened to it AND have a physical copy to highlight and take notes in.

It's okay to pivot.

love it! not too serious and just light hearted take on this very serious topic.

Most political of Kendra’s content

I love Kendra Adachi. I love everything Lazy Genius, and I found this book helpful. I found myself skipping chunks where we got heavy into patriarchy and institutionalized oppression or some version of that. There’s definitely bits of those topics that are relevant and worth considering, but I’m sick to death of hearing those terms. I think those topics are deep and complicated, and rather than making it feel motivating and helpful in a book about planning, they felt like a weight dragging me down.

The simplicity of Adachi’s approach.

This is first and foremost a very sane approach for women. It’s goal is peaceful and joyful living, not Greatness. Finally!

Love a plan for planning!

Love having language for all these approaches to time management. It helps me understand myself and others as well as giving me the encouragement and compassion I need to keep going.

Helpful

Exactly what I needed for this stage of my life. Will be recommending to all my female co-workers and friends.

Planning for the lives we actually lead

Kendra gets it. She helps us see, in The Plan, that WE are not broken, but our systems and frameworks often are. This book is Kendra’s signature mix of pep talks and practical tools, just what we Lazy Geniuses love her for.

If you are tired of hearing about the realities we live under, then there are plenty of other productivity books out there for you!

Looking at Time Management through the lens of being a woman = BRILLIANCE!!

Kendra has literally opened my eyes to looking at time management with such grace and from the “new” perspective of being a woman and I am SO grateful. I no longer have to feel guilty on the days I just can’t “get ‘er done”. I can simply be compassionate towards myself, my situation, my humans, and move forward “accessing kindness” to the best of my ability and trusting that there is goodness present. Thank you Kendra, this was brilliant!

productivity that focuses on women

The plan is a flexible way to think about productivity. it allows for changes in your season of life.

Her sense of humor and how she applied it.

This is definitely a book that I will go back to for reference!
Only draw back is I listened as an audible, I just need to download work areas for assistance.
