Tim Ferriss is the author of the now-famous bestseller The 4-Hour Work Week
I don’t often post the work of anyone here but myself, but this is such great productivity advice that I can’t help but share it with you. Bloggers tend to be total information junkies and Tim’s radical advice for dealing with it is something I think we could all benefit from.
What do you think about this?

Tim deffinatly knows his stuff pertaining to productivity. I definatly admire him because he opened the door for many other lifestyle designers to be noticed. The book is a great read Martin and one I would highly recommend.
Yes, I will be getting it soon!
I am a self confessed information junkie, I’m always flicking through the papers at work, then coming home and putting the news on, and listening whilst looking for more news for my blog.
AHH! I love Tim Ferriss. This guy is my new hero - Tim is the reason why I decided to get into the travel business. This book changed my life! I can’t wait until you read this book!

Christine, that’s great to hear! I’m sure Tim would think it’s pretty cool, too. That’s very inspiring!
Tim Ferriss certainly gives some mind boggling advice at his beautiful site http://www.timferriss.com/
Tim Ferris is definitely the man for the new rich. It’s extremely relevant for those who are doing business online. I pick up couple useful stuffs in his book.
Anyway, the classic for me is still Peter Drucker, the effective executive!
