In Getting Results the Agile Way, author J.D. Meier introduces Agile Results®-a simple system for meaningful results! It's a systematic way to achieve both short- and long-term results in all aspects of your life-from work to fun. It offers just enough planning to get you going, but makes it easy to change your course as needed. It also provides fresh starts for your day, week, month, and year. Even if you already use another time management system, Agile Results can supplement it to increase your impact and sense of fulfillment. In today's world, change happens quickly; learn how to be flexible and responsive to new opportunities. Don't just check off tons of stuff from your to-do list; do the things that make a difference. Stop trudging your way through life; bolster your energy with habits that will carry you forward each day. Quit sacrificing your personal life for your work life (or vice versa); give each facet of your life its due and find balance. In other words, learn the skills to go the distance in an ever-changing world. The beauty of Agile Results is that you don't have to adopt the entire system to see the benefits; just start with the following three basic tenets. First, adopt The Rule of 3 and you avoid being overwhelmed and become mindful of your results. Second, adopt the Monday Vision, Daily Outcomes, Friday Refection pattern and you set the wheels in motion for weekly results while giving yourself a fresh start each day and each week. Third, set up boundaries for your Hot Spots and begin to experience work-life balance. When you're ready for more, flip through the chapters to learn how to use stories to design your day, week, month, and year; how to find your motivation; how to improve your productivity; and many more. Agile Results is a time-tested system that J.D. Meier has honed through his years at Microsoft: learning from some of the best minds, leading virtual teams, and mentoring people around the world. It is a system he can bet on time and again. This guide is the playbook for getting results that he wishes somebody had given to him so many years ago. Now, he's sharing it with you.

I had the pleasure of spending most of last week with JD.
During that time he went through the principals outlined in his book...then I read it!
I've started using these techniques immediately.
I suppose I've done bits and pieces of what he suggest in a slightly haphazard way over the years - but JD's great trick is to crystallise it all into a workable way of life.
My highlights: Monday Vision, Daily Outcomes, Friday Reflection - based on the rule of 3's.
(also liked the 'worry break' technique).

My purchase of self-help, time management, motivational, get it done type books runs into hundreds, i am not proud to admit. Some of this must be the same reason that so much exercise equipment ends up as expensive clothes hanging equipment,
This book gives a very clear structure to follow to get yourself focused on doing what you need to do. It is based on the authors experience of what works and how to apply it in reality, and, crucially, he makes it so easy to get back on track if /when you, to mix metaphors, fall off the horse.
The way to implement the ideas are very flexible-no need to change everything at once. Probably the most useful productivity book I have ever read. I am on the third week of applying these simple ideas to my life, and I am feeling much more focussed and confident of getting the right stuff done.
