Eat that Frog!
Learn how to stop procrastinating high value tasks that can move your life forward. This book discusses the importance of goal setting, creative procrastination, time management and creating priority ranking for all of your tasks.
This slideshow is a comprehensive overview of Brian Tracy's book Eat That Frog! The basic premise of Eat That Frog is that we should focus on the highest payback, least-appealing task of the day FIRST, before anything else. He asserts that "your ability to select your most important task at each moment, and then to start on that task and get it done both quickly and well, will probably have more of an impact on your success than any other quality or skill you can develop!”
According to the author, an average person who masters this one technique will run circles around a genius who talks a lot and makes wonderful plans, but gets very little done. (I know somebody like this, don’t you?)
Furthermore, he says that "The ability to concentrate on this one important task, single-mindedly, to do it well, and to finish it completely is the key to great success, achievement, status and happiness in life.”
Let's all go eat that frog!
I love Brian Tracy's use of quotes in the book, and have included many of them in the slideshow.

APM event held on 9 July in Bristol.
Speaker: Roy Millard
The SWWE Regional Network were very pleased to welcome back to Bristol Roy Millard, of APM’s Assurance Interest Group on 9 July 2024, to talk about project reviews and hopefully answer all your questions.
Roy outlined his extensive career and his experience in setting up the APM’s Assurance Specific Interest Group, as they were known then.
Using Mentimeter, he asked a number of questions of the audience about their experience of project reviews and what they wanted to know.
Roy discussed what a project review was and examined a number of definitions, including APM’s Bok: “Project reviews take place throughout the project life cycle to check the likely or actual achievement of the objectives specified in the project management plan”
Why do we do project reviews? Different stakeholders will have different views about this, but usually it is about providing confidence that the project will deliver the expected outputs and benefits, that it is under control.
There are many types of project reviews, including peer reviews, internal audit, National Audit Office, IPA, etc.
Roy discussed the principles behind the Three Lines of Defence Model:, First line looks at management controls, policies, procedures, Second line at compliance, such as Gate reviews, QA, to check that controls are being followed, and third Line is independent external reviews for the organisations Board, such as Internal Audit or NAO audit.
Factors which affect project reviews include the scope, level of independence, customer of the review, team composition and time.
Project Audits are a special type of project review. They are generally more independent, formal with clear processes and audit trails, with a greater emphasis on compliance. Project reviews are generally more flexible and informal, but should be evidence based and have some level of independence.
Roy looked at 2 examples of where reviews went wrong, London Underground Sub-Surface Upgrade signalling contract, and London’s Garden Bridge. The former had poor 3 lines of defence, no internal audit and weak procurement skills, the latter was a Boris Johnson vanity project with no proper governance due to Johnson’s pressure and interference.
Roy discussed the principles of assurance reviews from APM’s Guide to Integrated Assurance (Free to Members), which include: independence, accountability, risk based, and impact, etc
Human factors are important in project reviews. The skills and knowledge of the review team, building trust with the project team to avoid defensiveness, body language, and team dynamics, which can only be assessed face to face, active listening, flexibility and objectively.

2. Picture this:
Each day your bank
deposits $86,400
in your checking
account.
There’s just one catch.
You have to spend it all
in one day.
You can’t carry over any
money to the next day.
4. 24 hours per day
X
60 minutes per hour
X
60 seconds per minute
=
86,400 Seconds
5. Spend every second in an efficient and
productive way
If you fail to use the day’s deposits, the loss is
yours.

ONE DAY, ask a daily wage laborer with kids to feed.
ONE HOUR, ask a parent waiting for a child to come out of surgery.
ONE MINUTE, ask a person who missed the plane.
ONE SECOND, ask a person who just avoided an accident.
ONE MILLISECOND, ask the person who won a silver medal in the
Olympics.
7. Yes!!!
You don’t want to feel
like you’re walking a
tightrope.
You never had to
worry about it before!
Before you had study
hall or your parents
saying do your
homework first.
8. In High School, you went to class from
early in the morning till mid-afternoon.
In college you go the hours you want.
In High School you had time in class to
complete projects.
In College you do most of your work out of
class.
9. Still in High School After Graduation
People to remind you to go to work
or school.
A safety net to pay your bills, in case
you don’t feel going to work and
you get fired. Mom and Dad will
cover you-right?
Teachers can usually be talked into
letting you turn in late work.
I’ll put off doing that today and
maybe it’ll just go away.
I’ll just go with the flow, everything
will work out- I hope!
You are responsible for getting to
your commitments on time-work,
school, picking up your kids,
whatever the commitment may be!
If you are late to work you will be
fired. A person likes to feel like they
are irreplaceable, however no one is.
There are 10 people waiting to take
your place at any job. Don’t let being
late or calling in get you fired!
If you can’t pay your bills your phone
will be cut off, you will be thrown
out of your apartment, utility
companies and people you owe
money to usually can’t be “talked
into” giving extensions.
The way to maintain control over what is happening to
you is to be a good manager of your biggest resource…
TIME.

27. 1. Make a “To-Do” List every day.
Put things that are most important at the top and do them first. If it's
easier, use a planner to track all of your tasks. And don't forget to
reward yourself for your accomplishments.
2. Use Spare Minutes Wisely.
Get some reading done on the bus ride home from school, or make your
grocery list when you are on your break at work, or take a brisk walk for
exercise when you are on a break or in between tasks.
3. It’s OK to say “NO”.
If your boss asks you to work on a Thursday night and you have
a final exam the next morning, realize that it's okay to say no.
Keep your short- and long-term priorities in mind.
28. 4. Find the Right Time!
You'll work more efficiently if you figure out when
you do your best work. For example, if your brain
handles math better in the afternoon, don't wait to
do it until late at night. This might also mean this
will be a good time to pay bills and to balance your
check book!
5. Review Your Notes Every Day.
If you review your notes on a daily basis you will be ready for a
pop quiz or if the teacher calls on you. This can also be applied to
your work life. Review any emails or conversations that you’ve
had with your boss or clients on daily basis. The more you
reinforce information in your head, the more likely it will stick
with you.
29. 6. Get a Good Night’s Sleep!
Running on empty makes the day seem
longer and tasks seem that much harder!
7. Communicate your Schedule to Others!
It may seem a bit silly but you may want to ask friends and family that you
will take calls only at certain time. This really does help.
8. Become a Task Master.
Figure out how much free time you have
each week. The give yourself a time
budget and plan activities accordingly.
30. 9. Don’t Waste Time Agonizing over what you have to do.
Have you heard yourself telling your friends about all
the stuff you’ve got to get done. How about instead of
talking about it you JUST DO IT! Stop worrying about
how you’re going to get it done and just get it done.
You’ll be amazed at how fast something can be
accomplished if you just get it started.
10. Keep Things in Perspective.
Setting goals that are unrealistic sets
you up for failure. While it's good to
set high goals for yourself, be sure not
to overdo it. Set goals that are difficult
yet reachable.
Consider these tips, but personalize your habits so that
they suit you. If you set priorities that fit your lifestyle,
you'll have a better chance of achieving your goals.
31. Monitor how well your
schedule is working.
Evaluate if you have
enough study time.
Admit when the schedule
you have created is not
working.
Then reevaluate and start
over, and over, and over.
Only you can control your
time!
32. Many people will offer you advice and
give you tips. It is up to you to make
things work for you and your routine
and your personality. ONLY you can
improve your time management
skills and take control of your life!
