Time Is Power: Create Space for What Matters Most

“Time is money.” –Benjamin Franklin

“No! Time is POWER!” –Janice Rostron

Are you constantly overcommitting, perplexed by piles of papers, and irritated by emails? Is your to-do list endless, overwhelming, and never getting done? Does time seem to get away from you every … single … day?

Time is your most powerful asset, but it is a finite resource. Janice Rostron created Time Is Power to help you take back the power you have over your time so you can spend it on what matters most. She combats the idea that productivity is about getting as much done as possible in the shortest amount of time. Instead, she defines productivity as getting the right things done, at the right time, with the right amount of energy.

Time Is Power is designed to make obligation and information overload more manageable. It is a step-by-step journey to a more productive life by showing you how to prioritize what’s important, simplify your systems, and delegate what you can.

For the past decade, Janice has helped her clients live less cluttered, more productive lives. She is a lifelong learner and has earned certificates in Chronic Disorganization, Workplace Productivity, and Team Productivity. Embracing her Master of Education (MEd) and years of teaching experience, she incorporates education into every aspect of her work as a professional organizer and productivity consultant.

You can’t do it all, but you can accomplish a lot when you focus on what matters most.

    Time is Power contained practical and useful ways to take back hours of my life. Janice’s experience as a professional organizer shines in this book. Each chapter is full of real advice that I could take away and each chapter ends with exercises to put the new knowledge into practice. Janice suggests taking time with the book, reading one section every couple days and applying the lessons slowly so they stick. I followed that advice and learned a ton. I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to level up their time management.

  • Definitely recommend.

    “Excellent read! Very concise with lots of info and ideas. Recommend reading it one chapter per sitting to give yourself some time to absorb. The book seems very small, but that's because there isn't a bunch of filler in the writing or the ideas presented. Time is power, after all, and the author doesn't waste my time with irrelevant fillers.”
