Enjoyed reading this book. I don't have much free time so I took this book to the gym and quickly read it in 3 weeks which is record time for me. The main thing that I got from this book was to create a launch pad where you record everything in one place. I no longer have post-it notes all over my desk and carry around a book with a calendar and weekly review.
A great book for organizing yourself. The author acknowledges the difficulty of being organized, and does not overwhelm with too many instructions or steps, and she is humble, she has developed this system because, as she admits, she herself is lazy and finds it difficult to remember things. And she is bossy--you have to follow her advice or the whole thing falls apart! But so far it has been very helpful for me.

I have seen a review where the person downgraded the book bc of it having dated information. Maybe the reader didn't look at the copyright date before reviewing. In addition to that the reviewer commented that the book references readers to use paper planners. Well SOME of us still do.
The only other criticism I have is that I will have to go through the book and create an outline for myself for all of the steps and substeps. I do realize if I did get the Kindle edition (that Is available) I likely wouldn't have to write them. Well in the short future, I am reading a library copy and can't get my own. As for the steps and substeps, I think that is the Most valuable part of the book. Some of us still have to be held by the hand, even as adults, to cross the street.
UPDATE: I bought the Kindle edition.… (lisätietoja)
