Sample Book Insights:
#1 Wilberforce was a great example of how changing your work habits can change your life for the better. He was initially elected to the British Parliament at the age of 21, and within five years his ambition was largely focused on gaining power and wealth. But after his conversion, Wilberforce focused completely on abolition of the slave trade.
#2 The book that Wilberforce wrote was extremely practical. It was not a five-step process or a checklist of discussion questions at the end of each chapter, but it was rooted in the core tenets of the gospel that led to such dramatic changes in his life, work, and habits for managing time.
#3 God is the author and creator of the bookends of time. In the 1970s, a Harvard professor found that the number one predictor of effectiveness in one’s career is having a long time perspective.
#4 We were created to live forever, and we long to be productive forever. But we don’t just want to live forever—we also want to be productive forever. Work was meant to be very good, and we long for it to be that way again.
