What To Do When There’s Too Much To Do teaches you how to actually do less and achieve more; Stack describes her comprehensive approach that organises life around the tasks that really matter, and shows it’s okay to let go of the ones that don’t.

Stack details her step-by-step strategy that has transformed the lives of her clients by saving them 90 minutes a day, including how to:

• Determine what to do and schedule time to do it
• Track down time wasters
• Learn to say no and make it stick
• Rescue your time from meetings
• Handle external and internal distractions
• Reduce inefficiencies and break bottlenecks
• Manage your personal energy and make yourself happier
