One of the best ( )

The best thing about this book is its title. It is unhelpful and unreadable. I tried, but didn't find a single useful idea in it, and could not get through it. ( )

With this book, I continue my habit of reading books about getting organized rather than actually getting organized. The book is clearly written and based on general change management principles. Paul proposes seven steps to getting organized and includes lots of examples. The ideas are not radically different from other organizing books that I've read, but a couple were interesting. Paul talks a lot about getting back to "ready." When you are done with an activity, she recommends making sure to take time to get back to ready. Basically, this means putting things away so that you are ready to act next time. Paul also highlights the importance of being realistic about how long things will take. She is not an advocate of a marathon organizing session. Rather, she recommends working through the mess a bit at a time and taking time to implement new systems and make them stick. This made a lot of sense to me. Overall, the book is clearly written with a number of useful tips.

This book is very philosophical. It's great, if that's what you want. I wanted more of a step-by-step self-help book to get organized, but this book is mainly about introspection. ( )

believe it or not this is an amazing book. reading it will actually change your life, not merely waste your time. it's not simply about being organized, it's about being purposeful. should be in the spirituality section as well. ( )
