This week sees the launch of a new series at lifehack.org: We Ask, You Answer.  Every Monday I will post a question for the lifehack.org community for you to answer.  The following Monday, I will post my answer along with a selection (depending on how many there are) of your responses. The idea is to give you a chance to share your knowledge with the rest of the lifehack.org community — and to give you the opportunity to see what your fellow lifehack.org readers are doing!

This week’s question is:

• Imagine you have a friend or colleague that’s struggling to manage all of their commitments and is visibly sinking under the pressure.  What productivity book (or books) do you recommend to them, and why?

Let us know your answer in the comments.

Dustin M. Wax is a contributing editor and project manager at lifehack.org. He is also an anthropology and women's studies professor in Las Vegas, NV where he lives with his partner and three children. His personal site can be found at dwax.org.
