What does this SUMOREADS Analysis Include?
- An executive summary of the original book
- Editorial Review
- Key takeaways & analysis
- A short bio of the the authors
Original Book Summary Overview: Jon Acuff’s Finish: Give Yourself the Gift of Done explains why perfectionism is the number one enemy in getting any goal or project done and offers practical ideas for getting around this sneaky obstacle. Acuff contends that by countering perfectionism with simple, counter-intuitive measures - such as cutting goals in half, simplifying the process, and using data to track progress - anyone can make the transition from a chronic starter to a consistent finisher. Finish is an easy read packed with insights that can be put to immediate application. Anything struggling to get things at home and at work done will find the practices Acuff recommends invaluable.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a summary, analysis and review of the book and not the original book. It is meant as a supplement to, not a replacement for, Finish.

Most organizations and individuals work in the context of annual goals and plans; a 12-month execution cycle. Instead, The 12 Week Year avoids the pitfalls and low productivity of annualized thinking. This book redefines your "year" to be 12 weeks long. In 12 weeks, there just isn't enough time to get complacent, and urgency increases and intensifies. The 12 Week Year creates focus and clarity on what matters most and a sense of urgency to do it now. In the end more of the important stuff gets done and the impact on results is profound.

I’m missing out on my life. What’s wrong with me? If that’s ever crossed your mind, and if you know there’s more to life than what you’ve been living, this audiobook is for you. It sucks to acknowledge that you are what’s keeping you from the life you want. You sacrifice what you want most for what you want in the moment. You know everything you’re supposed to do, and yet you feel stuck - limited by your past, overwhelmed by your future - in a purgatory of your own behavior.

Perfectionism is a naturally limiting mindset. For example, kids are taught to color inside the lines, and any color outside the lines is considered a mistake that must be corrected. Imperfectionism frees us to live outside the lines, where possibilities are infinite, mistakes are allowed, and self-judgment is minimal.

For many people, procrastination is a daily vice that prevents them from doing really important and urgent tasks when there is no outside pressure. Postponement can become a problem not only in daily private activities, but especially in professional life. Psychologists go as far as to describe procrastination as a disruption of self-regulation, since the procrastinator cannot endure anything unpleasant in the short term to achieve something positive in the long term.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.
