Time Management for System Administrators

AUTHOR: Thomas A. Limoncelli
STARTED: [2024-08-19]

Cover of the book Time Management for System Administrators by Thomas A. Limoncelli. It has a picture of a wolverine sitting on top of the word “Time”. Recommended to me by a friend because they feel that the Cycle System described in this book will help me deal with my daily tasks a lot better.

Moving Pictures

The next book in the Discworld series.

The Swords of Haven

AUTHOR: Simon R. Green
STARTED: [2024-09-01]

Cover of the book The Swords of Haven. A Hawk & Fisher omnibus. There is a mostly obscured face of a man with many scars and a short beard. And there is the face of a woman looking focused while holding a sword. I got this book in one of several Humble Bundles that I bought that I'm now trying to catch up with.

Getting Things Done

AUTHOR: David Allen
STARTED: [2022-01-22]
FINISHED: [2022-06-23]

Cover of the book Getting Things Done by David Allen with the text "Getting Things Done: the art of stress-free-productivity from the New York Times bestselling author David Allen; A brand new edition for 2015." And a picture of David Allen smiling. Great book about organizing the things that you need / want to do. I've been trying to use this method for a long time and finally decided to go to the source material. I'm glad I did. I feel like over all of the blog posts that I read and tips that I'd heard about how GTD actually works, there was a lot that was left out from this book. And I'm sure I've already forgotten a great deal about what's in this book and I expect I'll want to come back to it later, but even the things I have read I think will help me a great deal in organizing my life and feeling like I've done something the day.
