Productivity Bomb – An explosive guide to increase your productivity
12 points by imcarlos 2707 days ago
Today I finish my book!

It's called Productivity bomb and it's a book that teaches you how to become a productive person. I face my self this problems to be productive and I know how hard it is. Especially when you are working on side projects where there are no real side effects if you just don't do it.

The book is completely free and really small (45 minutes read).

It's available in Portuguese and English. There must be some problems with both versions but maybe can help you.

Thank you

(Some hopefully helpful feedback) I might look except

1. I don't know anything about you. Who are you, how did it help you?

2. I don't know anything about the book's methods. Give me some idea what to expect. I, like probably most people on here, have read books on the topic before. How is yours different?

3. You seem to have pretty bad English (probably absolutely fine for chatting with, but not for writing a book), which puts me off wanting to read it.

Thank you for your comment. 1,2 - I'm Carlos, I'm a programmer and I was not that productive. It's 45 minutes read so if you really need help you will do it I believe. 3 - About my English is ok. This is not a romance. My objective is to help people to become more productive.
Agreed. It says free, but it does cost my name and email. It's going to have to answer these questions by the pop up before I fill it in.
There is a button on the form that says "Just give me the book", which grants you access without giving away any details.
Nailed it.
Well done! Thanks for the book. Your English is great, I'm not sure what the other guy is talking about.

I would agree that it would hook us in if we knew more about you (and your project challenge?) in the first chapter of the book. We don't really get to know you until we follow links to your main website page and off to your Youtube channel (subbed).

Thank you for your comment. Well, I didn't put that information on the first page because my idea with this book just help to be more productive. I really don't want to distract people with my own challenges. But yes you are right! It's a good way to promote my challenge. Thanks again
"I face my self this problems to be productive" etc.
Thanks for taking the time to put this together and share it for free.
Thank you for your support.
