2025 GOODY BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS WINNER IN SELF-HELP - PERSONAL SUCCESS

Feeling like you're one dropped ball away from everything crashing down? No matter how skilled we are at managing our time, we inevitably face more demands than we can handle, each obligation yet another piece of an ever-expanding puzzle. Practical Productivity is your battle-tested guide to mastering life's most challenging juggling act. 

From handling multiple executive roles and founding Productivity 101, to managing a household with two children and a traveling spouse, Monisha Longacre has mastered the moves that keep all the pieces in play while knowing which ones can wait their turn. 

Perfect for busy professionals, parents juggling multiple responsibilities, entrepreneurs building their dreams, or anyone seeking to accomplish more without sacrificing what matters most. This isn't another abstract productivity philosophy - it's an actionable playbook organized into six critical domains: Your Time, Your Lists, Your Stuff, Your Day, Your Life, and Your Effectiveness. Each section provides concrete, immediately applicable strategies that you can test or try for yourself.

In Practical Productivity, Monisha shows you how to:

• Transform your mindset to develop the productivity framework that works best for you, beyond just tools and technology
• Master the art of focus: learn when to say yes, when to say no, and how to avoid productivity-killing distractions
• Create and maintain effective to-do (and to-don't) lists that actually work-not just endless catch-alls that overwhelm
• Streamline your physical and digital spaces to eliminate clutter and maximize efficiency
• Build sustainable systems that flex with your changing needs, developing practical habits that stick, even when life gets chaotic

Whether you're overwhelmed by competing priorities, struggling to maintain balance, or simply trying to make the most of each day, you'll discover proven strategies for doing what matters most with the time you have.
