Book Introduction
How to Work Smarter and Focus on What Matters Most in the AI Era
“Grip, he who designs time controls life!”
From daily schedule management to weekly plans and yearly goals,
Finally, I made a plan for my life.
The art of prioritizing time planning for people who have lost their sense of self due to work.
In the AI era, people thought they would be freed from work.
Technology was predicted to expedite repetitive tasks, granting us unprecedented efficiency and precious time. But what has been the result? Have we become so busy that we've forgotten precious things? How we utilize the time technology saves remains up to us.
Now is the time to go beyond simply managing time and increasing productivity, and "design" my time so that I can truly lead my life by focusing on areas uniquely human that AI cannot.
If you've been so caught up in the daily grind that you've forgotten the direction and values you truly desire in life, if you feel like you're living a busy life but haven't actually accomplished anything, let's change your life with "Grip" right now.

Into the book
To be effective with your schedule, you need to keep it up to date.
Do you want a reliable, solid schedule? Do you want to never forget an important deadline or appointment again? Then, from now on, stick to your schedule.
That's all.
If you have something scheduled that you're not actually going to do, get rid of it right now.
Don't be lenient.
Not attending
A regular meeting that isn't happening? Cancel it.
Accounting-related notifications you've been ignoring? Delete them.
Start fresh with only the items you are sure you can keep.
--- p.18, from “Based on the Schedule”
The backup brain will actually consist of two parts.
One is the schedule we've already covered.
And the other one is a to-do list.
A great advantage of to-do lists, even in their simplest form, is that they provide a space to store all your open loops, big and small, somewhere outside your head.
So before you build that space, make a solemn promise to yourself.
There's only one basic rule for using a to-do list.
Don't keep it in your head! That's it!
--- p.62, from “Don’t keep things in your head”
Friday Review is a day I promise myself once a week to (1) look back on the past week's work and (2) anticipate the coming week's work.
Knowing that you've set aside time each week for review and planning means you won't have to worry about what you're missing out on at other times.
If you missed something or didn't make time, you'll find it during this time.
A weekly review that helps you understand your work status only takes 30 minutes a week.
And did I mention that it gives you peace of mind?
--- p.128~129, from “Work with a Safety Net”
Annual reviews consider completely different things.
Instead of focusing on the short term, take a long-term view.
It's a time to reflect on the past 12 months and freely dream about what you can do in the year ahead.
The result? New insights into the year ahead, clearer memories, and a wealth of ideas for the year ahead.
--- p.174, from “How to Plan Your Year in One Day”
If you constantly feel pressure to do better at what you do, it might be worth taking a closer look at the dynamics between these three factors: internal and external expectations, and your energy level.
Once you know whether the pressure is coming from within or from without, you can stop and adjust your expectations or face the external stressor head on.
--- p.234, from “Improving Your Behavior and Self-Image”
My strategic thinking approach consists of four tactics that can be applied to everything from simple decisions to complex dilemmas.
The more strategically you think about your dilemma, the better the outcome will be.
You will become better at organizing, evaluating, planning, and working.
Anyone can think strategically.
But this is only possible if you make time.
So give yourself some space to think.
These four strategies can help you solve even the most difficult problems.

Publisher's Review
“I’m so busy, but why haven’t I actually gotten anything done?”
What if I get caught up in today's tasks and miss out on what I really want to do in the future?
We all know the signs that things are getting out of control.
As soon as the week starts, we're already busy catching up on work.
At the end of the day, a to-do list longer than the morning and an overflow of emails await us, and that's the routine.
No matter how hard I work, there are days when I feel like I'm standing still.
“What if you’re this busy and still haven’t done anything?”
《Grip》 was created for you, the busy and busy you, who are worried that you will not be able to become the person you want to be in the future because you are tied up in today's to-do list.
The book's author, Rick Pastor, went from being an engineer at age 25 to leading a team of 30 at Blendle, a journalism startup backed by the New York Times, just one year later.
Working with a variety of people, he realized that new ways of working were needed to increase productivity. He experimented with various methods and shared only the effective ones with his colleagues.
That is how this book was born.
An instant bestseller in the Netherlands, this book has helped countless readers find clarity in the midst of confusion.
Furthermore, he realizes that time planning is essential not only to become a good leader at work, but also to become a good partner and father at home, and even to plan and design one's own future. He talks about not only specific time management methods but also attitudes and styles toward life.
Apple's Steve Jobs said:
“Time is limited.
So don't waste your life living someone else's life.”
Do you want to improve your performance at work? Do you want to find direction in your life amidst a busy schedule? Do you dream of sustainable growth? Designed for all of these, this book's approach is accessible and straightforward, making it accessible to everyone. The summary tables and optional structure for each section allow you to immediately apply the material where it's needed.
“Stop living a life of being dragged around by trivial matters!”
The most amazing time planning method that allows you to create weekly plans, yearly goals, and even life plans.
Grip offers concrete ways to stop being dragged around by trivial matters and quickly get things done that really matter.
Based on time management techniques personally tested and proven in a busy startup environment, the author offers practical tools and insights to help you reflect your priorities into your schedule and transform your dreams into tangible tasks.
The book is divided into three parts.
Part 1 covers managing your day and week, detailing how to maximize the potential of the work tools you already use, including calendars, to-do lists, and email management.
In addition, it helps readers understand with various diagrams and pictures and presents practical methods to help improve actual work productivity.
In Part 2, we'll talk about how to reduce distractions and focus on your goals to help you set and achieve long-term goals.
It starts with the question, “What motivates you?” and teaches you how to set realistic, achievable goals and plan for the year ahead.
The final three parts discuss specific methodologies for creating your own life goals, as well as strategies for creating space for bigger thinking and growth.
This book challenges readers to think critically, asking questions like: How well do you know yourself? Are you a good listener? Do you have the courage to boldly envision long-term projects?
Additionally, the appendix provides readers with all the author's know-how, including how to take good notes, plan a vacation, and even how to manage an organization.
“Recommended for anyone who is so caught up in their to-do list that they have trouble making time for what really matters.”
_Daniel H. Pink

I finally found it! The one book that will make my dreams come true!
Your time is your life.
This book gives you specific instructions on how to design your week, month, and year so you can find and focus on what really matters, and for those who need help with their work, it provides direction for their life, not a to-do list.
It helps you transform your dream goals into realistic tasks, incorporate your priorities into your schedule, and focus on the details without losing sight of the big picture.
In the busy flow of time every day, we often get so caught up in the 'now' that we lose sight of the big picture.
But the habit of organizing the flow of the week and reviewing the goals for the year creates a more powerful change than you might think.
Furthermore, if it is connected to life's values and goals, time management will become a tool that helps you find your true self and grow into a better person.
The important thing is not a complex system, but a structure that you can consistently look back on and create your own rhythm.
A 10-minute daily check-in, a Friday reflection, a quarterly reset—these small routines add up to make your life stronger and more meaningful.
Start planning your time from now on.
Your week, your year, and finally your life will change.
Now is the moment to take your time and redesign your life.
