WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING...

"Ashley Whillans is my hero. Welcome to the practical guide you need to protect the most important resource you'll ever have: time. Whillans provides the handbook every busy person needs."
Laurie SantosYale University
"Time Smart, the new book by Ashley Whillans, is the latest book to be added to the surprisingly slender library of behavioural science books that help you to help yourself... Whillans is able to take the topics she discusses beyond the dry pages of academic research, by revealing that she herself struggles with many of the same issues, and the impacts that it has had on her own, seemingly gilded, life. To summarise, this book is well written, practical, and insightful."
Dr. Michael SandersChief Executive, What Works for Children's Social Care
"Time Smart is an eye-opener. Combining rigorous science with an accessible style, Whillans offers scores of suggestions for how to use our time in ways that boost productivity, efficiency, and joy."
Sonja LyubomirskyUniversity of Riverside, California
"Time Smart is a no-nonsense analysis of how to spend your time and your money. Instead of a series of snake-oil mantras and quick fixes, Whillans gives you a road map to better organize your life."
Scott GallowayNew York University
"This book is slim, fittingly, to prove that author Ashley Whillans doesn't need to take up much of your time to teach you how to make better use of your time... Time Smart calls out the American culture of constant busy-ness, the time traps we find ourselves in, and the happiness we may be sacrificing for making poor decisions with our time or our money.... An easy-to-read book with easy-to-learn techniques, Time Smart will get you on the right track time, money, and happiness-wise as quickly and painlessly as possible."
