Has anyone read "Eat That Frog" from Brian Tracy or any of his other "21" series?

Eat That Frog -- Brian Tracy
"Eat That Frog" was OK. Not a lot of variety of time management techniques and he wasn't specific enough for me.
I recommend "Do It Tomorrow" by Mark Fosters http://www.amazon.com/Tomorrow-Other-Secrets-Time-Management/dp/0340909129
He has technique called "Current Iniative" which is similar to the Frog. Take a project and do something on it first thing everyday. Before you check email!!
Eat That Frog -- Brian Tracy
I read it. Kind of repeated "rah rah, just do it" over and over again. I guess it is good for a quick motivational shot in the arm. It wore off quick though.
Eat That Frog -- Brian Tracy
I agree with Tool - and that's sort of how everything is with Tracy - I enjoy him a lot, but it wears off pretty quick.
Here's a good book I found about a year ago:
[i]The Now Habit [/i]by Neil Fiore
It faded a little bit toward the end, but the first half of the book was great.

I love how books and people
I love how books and people say, do this first thing, like reading email etc; but if you work in a multinational, chances are first thing you're talking with another office.
Short of getting in earlier (and who wants to do that), it won't happen.
