Meet Dr. Shashikant, the doctor who discovered that time management can be just as important as medicine. After years of teaching in medical schools around the world, he noticed something interesting – even his smartest students struggled not because they didn't know enough, but because they couldn't manage their time or kept putting things off.
"I saw brilliant minds hitting walls that had nothing to do with their intelligence," he often says when reflecting on his teaching days.
As a pathologist with degrees that barely fit on a business card (MBBS, MD, DNB, plus several fellowships), Dr. Shashikant brings real-world experience to every page. His training in healthcare management from Bangalore's Indian Institute of Mind Management wasn't just another certificate – it was a turning point in how he viewed productivity.
You might have stumbled across his articles on Medium or Quora, where he breaks down complex ideas into advice you can actually use. This book pulls together everything he's learned and taught over the years.
What sets him apart from other experts who talk about productivity? He's lived the chaos. The midnight oil burns. The impossible patient loads. The deadlines that make your stomach turn. But more importantly, he found his way through it all.
When you read this book, it's like having coffee with a mentor who gets it. No fancy jargon or complicated systems – just straight talk about what works. As he likes to tell his students, "If you need a PhD to understand my advice, I've failed as a teacher."
Dr. Shashikant tests every technique he shares between seeing patients and mentoring medical students. "I won't recommend anything I haven't tried myself," he insists.
"From Snooze to Success" isn't just another book on his shelf – it's his life's work wrapped in pages. He's inviting you to join him in breaking the chains of procrastination and poor time management, one practical step at a time.
