Good summary - and good reminder that most self-help productivity books are a rehashing of common sense principles that need 5-20 pages of elaboration at best (publishers like to 20x that number because densely written 15-page tracts don't sell for $30 a unit).
Here's a little productivity book hack to keep in your back pocket: if there's a section on Steve Jobs, don't buy the book; whatever it contains has been said 1000 times already with no fresh insight.
