What people are saying
A practical guide for anyone who wants to take back control of their time! It’s fascinating to see how to turn values into practical actions! I appreciated the book’s highly practical approach. It gets straight to the point: the author demonstrates that he applies the advice he offers to himself.
Pierre BULTEL
A very useful book! While everyone agrees that time is precious, this book provides the keys to finally asking ourselves the right questions about how we use it in our daily lives. The book’s pragmatic approach is particularly valuable, and the chapters offer clear guidance on how to apply Alain Humbert’s method to both our professional and personal lives.

I really enjoyed this book, which I found to be very practical, pragmatic, and well-structured. The author’s approachable and sincere tone makes it a real pleasure to read, and I could tell from the various examples provided by both his clients and himself that the method is extremely well-honed. I’ve started applying part of the structure outlined in the book to my work schedule—specifically the micro-tasks and recurring items—and it’s been a game-changer. I plan to continue with the “pebbles” and “wildcards,” and then share this with my team! The chapter on chronobiology was enlightening for me and finally allowed me to understand my rhythm and organize myself to tackle the most important tasks at the times of day when I’m most focused. In short, this book is a treasure trove of very useful and easy-to-apply tips; it’s smooth and a pleasure to read, and I highly recommend it! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Alain, for writing this book and sharing this knowledge!
