1.0 out of 5 stars I was disappointed..., November 27, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Neat Ideas Daybook (Library Binding)

I thought this was a waste of my money. It is basically a spiral notebook calendar with some generic sayings on it, much like the free one my insurance rep sends me every December! Here are a few examples:

"Prioritize your responsibilities."
"Time is money."
"Learn from your mistakes"
"Throw useless, broken junk away."
"Use a coffeemaker with a timer in the mornings"
"Accept that life will always be filled with challenges."
"Make a list of items you need before going to the store."

Well, Duuuuuuuuuuuh!

Do I really need a professional organizer to tell me these little "tips" and clichés? That's ALL it is. No elaboration or examples, no new ideas, no unique methods for approching a task, just trite, one-sentence platitudes.

I was really looking forward to this book and when it came, all I could think was: "Is this it?"

When the author wants to actually WRITE A BOOK worth the full price then maybe I'll check it out, but I feel tricked into buying something I could have picked up at my local drugstore for cheap.

In a straight-forward, easy to use fashion, the Neat Ideas Daybook gives me a practical suggestion each day to simply every aspect of my otherwise hectic life. The book also contains witty anecdotes to put otherwise overwhelming tasks in perspective. I recommend this book to anyone who wants to tackle organizational tasks at home, work, or on the road, one step at a time. Great gift, great buy.
