Ask a man where two thousand dollars went last week and he will tell you inside four minutes. Ask him where last Tuesday went and he gives you a shape instead of an answer.
Sixteen waking hours, unaccounted for, and the same man would fire an employee who ran inventory that way.
This book covers the man and the company he runs, because they break the same way and they get fixed the same way. Priorities that survive contact with a real week. Saying no without a speech. Finishing, which is a completely separate skill from starting and almost nobody practices it. Then systems that create freedom, standards that produce accountability, delegation that is not abandonment dressed up, and building something that keeps working when you are not in the room.
A man who cannot govern a Tuesday will not govern a decade. A company that depends on one man's attention was never built, it was only operated.
Ordering your days is a spiritual act. So is ordering your work.
