Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Self-Disciplined Producer
Martin Meadows · 2018
61/100
👎 Skip It
Martin Meadows practices what he preaches — sixteen books and four courses is a real track record — and the concise, no-filler format is genuinely appreciated by his niche readership. But the advice sits squarely in familiar productivity territory with thin research backing, and veterans of the genre will find little that is new. Worth it if you are new to productivity literature; skippable if you are not.
