Time Power

Several years ago, I bought about a dozen books on time management and found this and Alan Lakien's books to be the best. Time Power is intense and required several months of part time effort for me to complete. It's truly unfortunate that Mr. Hobbs' book is now out of print. Charles pioneered modern time management theory and practice. All the current time management experts, trainers and consultants derive their core concepts and ideas from Charles Hobbs. This work is a bit out of step with current practices in that we increasingly moving away from paper based systems toward electronic time management products such as MS Outlook. On the other hand, the most important thoughts and ideas presented in this book are timeless. I recently began working with Tony Robbins' "Time of Your Life" CD program which is also quite good.

I found this book in a used book store in 1985. After reading it I immediately went about implementing the system defined by Dr. Hobbs. The results were amazing. I started to get high marks in university, I accomplished long term goals and increased my own self esteem.I continue to follow this system today and I learn more and more about effective time management every year.I recommend this book most highly to anyone interested in CONTINUOUS self improvement.

Time management tricks don't work. Dr. Hobbs takes who you are and puts you in control without any tricks - just reality. I already have two copies and have loaned them out to friends. They won't bring them back! That's why I am ordering a third copy. Covey is a child compared to Dr. Hobbs, and I like Covey!

By far the best time management program published in the last 25 years. Charles Hobbs' practical approach helps you put your own life in order before taking on the challenges of your company. Easy program to follow also available in an audio tape series.

This was an incredible book and a great tool for anyone interested in real time management. So many books tell the why, but not many the how. This book not only told the how but motivated me to do it.
