Opis

Time is secret, unknown and magic. Understanding and managing this amazing fourth dimension can make us kings of our lives But we usually don't, and time is getting more and more stressful and painful. "Hidden Step Ahead" is about time. It shows how time can engulf us, give us breathing room, and take us to the fore. It moves us one step into the future and teaches us how to successfully win at the game of life. "Hidden Step Ahead" follows one simple idea: how to always be one secret step ahead of the others. The main topic presents a simply described technique of self-management which is how not to become burned-out by the tempo of modern life and forcing one beyond his capabilities by other peoples' expectations where immediate services are required. There have many books of time management describing such topics in theoretical terms, but those books are not read often by ordinary people nor do they help people directly. That is why "Hidden Step Ahead" doesn't want to be a traditional and tedious book of management that even professional managers reject reading. It presents the topics differently, using short and clear language, with simple explanations and some life exercises, which address a wide range of people of all education levels who are stretched to the limit by the speed of life and are attempting to satisfy other peoples' expectations, with no time left for feeling and enjoying their life or using any time for self-interesting projects.. The author utilizes manly theories from this topic, but realized it was necessary to condense these into a coherent whole. He was trying to manage himself while drowning in time schedules at work, at home, everywhere. However, as an expert in information management and business management he needed to simplify all the theories into a simple technique to make it work for everyone. And it worked. With the book he introduces this technique to wide range of people who don't possess management knowledge and don't have time (or the inclination) to read boring theoretical books of management.
