5.0 out of 5 stars A Book For All Walks of Life, April 23, 2006
America is great because it has a "start-up" mentality. Americans will put in hours upon hours to start a business, bring a product to market, or to accomplish the next "insanely great" thing.

Unfortunately, we don't always take enough time for ourselves. We figure there will be time when the project is done. This book dispells this myth and teaches you how to balance life and work and take a "minute for yourself." As my Rabbi said when my aunt passed away, "We always wait for the golden years. Well, the golden years aren't so great. They can be filled with aches and pains, illness, and unfortunately death. Enjoy life every day you live."

I personally live by the advice in this book. I schedule an hour in my daytimer each week where that hour is for me. I might take a walk, spend time with my dad, or I might just take a long lunch. When I begin a new project I tell my boss that each week I am going to schedule time to just think about the best way to accomplish the goal at hand.

This is a great book for anyone, but especially for the person who always feels there is just not enough time to do all the things they want to do.

1.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, April 1, 2006
Don't waste your time reading the entire book. The book makes some good points, but as in other Spencer Johnson works, they are sparse with filler in between. Fortunately, the author was kind enough to place several summary pages throughout the book.

Save time and money:
1. Get the book from the library or a friend.
2. Read pages 55, 74 and 100.
