‘FROGS’ For Dieting (Testimonial Series)

FOCUS! FOCUS! That is what I need. No matter how I work, I just can’t finish it.



Today was simply a tiring day. With all the adjustments I am going through now, living as an Asian in the land down under in barely 3 months. I have no friends. The new working environment is simply grandeur. Everyone expects me to keep up. It’s not that I’m not enjoying, it’s just that I can’t focus. I miss my home.

Cramming is simply not my cup of tea. I honestly do love to work. It’s just that no matter what I do, it seems I can’t accomplish lots of things on time. I’m not like this way back home. I’m totally the complete opposite. I am an effective, competent and dedicated employee. And with the performance I was enjoying here in Australia, I desperately needed help.

One day at work, I finished everything on time and was just lolling in my PC. I was trying to look for a network here in Australia that helps improve someone’s performance by knowing their culture, work style habits, etc. I surfed through a lot of sites until I saw this “Eat That Frog”. I checked it out because I was basically intrigued of what the ‘Frog’ was. Way back home, local farmers eat frogs from the rice fields and by its headline I was intrigued.

So, there it was! I found what I’m looking for.




A website that leads you to the source of all practical knowledge that is simply life changing (http://www.eatthatfrog.com.au/). Just by downloading the Ebook and read it at the weekend basically transformed my perspective. Now, I am psyched in attending their seminar.

No wonder just by Eating That Frog – I will surely accomplish everything with maximum results. It wasn’t race-biased but was simply designed for everyone. It was simply UNIVERSAL. Eat that Frog taught me how to “Think on Paper” – something that I don’t normally do, but because of that principle another principle unveiled and the rest followed. I definitely redeemed my FOCUS by just Eating That Frog and I suggest you do it now.

I’ve Overcome My ‘Weight Problem’ By Eating That Frog (Testimonial Series)

I am a successful Senior Head of a reputable company. With such position come heavy loads of task and responsibilities everyday. I had a set of ways in doing things, but was further harnessed in one memorable seminar. I met my wife there by the way. Anyways, I once attended this Eat That Frog seminar. I listened to Brian Tracy’s concepts and principles and applied it in the office. It completely changed my life. I always yielded the quickest and expected results. I became more effective with my management by being goal oriented. I learned to practice brief morning meetings only discussing about daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly goals. I am always loaded with tons of responsibilities everyday but managed to eat that frog.

I am now living as a single dad of 3 kids. I’m tremendously loving and enjoying it but it harmed my strategy in work.

It was not too long ago; when my wife took her last breathe after giving birth to our twins due to some complications.



I lost hope and wanted to kill myself when I saw the flat line in front of me. “Clear!” shouted the doctor, “clear!” responded the nurse. I can’t believe it was happening right before my very eyes. I was in denial and wanting to wake up from a very bad dream. It pierced my heart and went through my soul! It was really painful. I lost a woman I loved so much.

Now, our twins “Frederico and Angela” are both 8 months old.

Though my mum and my sister assisted me, I can’t rely on them anymore for they too have their own lives. My eldest Juri, who is 4 years old recently, started play school. His class is only half day so I usually pick him up in his friend’s house just two blocks away our house. Good thing our company has a daycare where I can bring the twins at work and just check at them if I do have the chance.

The biggest frogs are always there, that’s for a fact. I’ve become so successful with my career by applying the Eat That Frog principles why can’t I do it in my household. So, to make the long story short, by eating those ‘overweight’ frogs FIRST practically made me feel weightless.

Make a Decision (Testimonial Series)

Brian Tracy argues that one of the most effective productivity boosters is to make a clear decision to do something or stop doing anything. Either way, do something or not. Make a decision right and get started! Eat That Frog absolutely shared useful concepts for wealth and productivity in practical applications.

For a lot of people including me, who loves to procrastinate, tends to be unproductive and incompetent. Wasting time and energy thinking about something I really should do, or I really should stop doing, or I really would like to achieve has been a common concern. But I don’t make a clear decision either way.

Decisiveness requires self-discipline, practice and repetition to eventually become a habit. It’s worth the effort, because it will maximize your productivity and make you more successful in life. Decisiveness as a second nature will make it easier to fight procrastination and to do what should do when you should do it (regardless if you’re in or not).
Getting things done and decisiveness make a great tag team. The concepts of GTD are good for clearing your head of stuff and creating a trusted system with all of your projects and next actions. However, it is all too easy to only think about your projects without Thinking On Paper. To only think about the next action that you should be doing deals with your focus. And to only think about that wonderful time on your “someday to do list” deals with your commitment. Without a decision, without delivery, it’ll all remain abstract.

Now enhance you getting things done system by applying the habit of decisiveness. By eating that frog, it directs you to a decision accompanied with an action, which project you, should be working on FIRST. Be decisive when it comes to alter stuff from your someday or maybe list into a real project. Do that and get started!

I challenge anyone who is reading this, to make a decision in your life right now. Decide to be highly productive. Decide to be rich. Decide to be successful. Make it now! By just learning from Brian Tracy’s ‘Eat That Frog’ – no frog has an escape.

Bulls Eyed on what Matters (Testimonial Series)

Brian Tracy’s ‘Eat That Frog’ is a great book instead of a less palatable title. But it totally agrees with the basic argument of the book. This is where eating a ‘frog’ is used as a metaphor that means doing the most important thing. This is the task you are most likely to put off, it being mist likely not so good, but also almost certainly the one that will have the greatest probable impact in your life.

The book makes the argument (in which I agree) that there is never time to do everything on your to-do list, and there will be never. Hence, as an alternative of reading so many self-help books on how to organize your life – focus is the key. As well as, you try to do yeoman’s job of chasing the finishing point of all tasks, you have to accept the fact that if you cannot get everything done, you might as well spend your energy on the most important task available.

This goes back to the 80-20 rule, which is that the most important top 20% of all your task will most likely determine 80% of your success, and as a replacement for ticking it off one by one (most people do their task list in chronological order, easiest first and the hard part later), there is a good stand point t believe you can be more successful by just focusing on these top 20%.

This book focuses on three vital aspects of effective personal time management: decision, discipline and determination. The book presents 21 ways to do this. It is a short yet practical book only 144 pages but nevertheless shows far more substance than many books thicker in size.
