Tech company CEO Zao-Sanders published an article related to timeboxing in the Harvard Business Review that inspired this book. The author emphasizes that the concept of timeboxing is not new and can be adopted by anyone, as it basically synthesizes the to-do list with a daily calendar. He promotes the benefits of timeboxing and provides guidance on how readers can implement this practice to save time and complete more tasks without feeling overwhelmed. Zao-Sanders offers hands-on activities that allow readers to experiment with timeboxing practices and suggests tips on how to avoid pitfalls that might derail this method, such as distractions or rushing through tasks.
