Books I Recommend: Productivity

Here is a selection of books that deal with productivity.

My book Do More Better is meant to be a short but practical guide to developing a system for productivity. I’ve heard from many who have found it helpful, so will recommend it on that basis.

Redeeming Productivity

Redeeming Productivity

Reagan Rose

Though I have not reviewed it, I do recommend Reagan Rose’s Redeeming Productivity for which I wrote a foreword. See also his book Well Done.

What’s Best Next

What’s Best Next

Matt Perman

Perman advocates what he calls “gospel-driven productivity” and applies Christian thought to many of today’s best books on productivity.

Busy

Busy

Ian Carmichael

This book offers a unique take on busyness and one that strikes to the very heart of our God-given purpose. It is a book that blessed and challenged me and, I trust, one that will bless and challenge you as well.

You’re Only Human

You’re Only Human

Kelly Kapic

Not a book about getting more done, but about our finitude—and about receiving our limits as a good gift of God rather than a problem to be overcome.

Choose Better

Choose Better

T. David Gordon

Four models for making decisions well. Easy to read, well-illustrated, and just the right length.
