5.0 out of 5 stars A must read for anyone who has no time, energy, or free time, August 22, 1999

This review is from: How to Get Organized When You Don't Have the Time (Paperback)

This book is well written, easy to understand and right on target. I am a person who works with computers on a day to day basis, and it is exactly what i have been looking for. If you have no time, no energy, no clean area in your home, have a ton of things to do, and are about overwhelmed by everything that you need to do, and everything that you want to do. GET THIS BOOK!!!!!!! It will definately help. The hardest part is picking it up, after that you will be on your way.. :-)

2.0 out of 5 stars Very little helpful advice, May 9, 2005

This review is from: How to Get Organized When You Don't Have the Time (Paperback)

If you want to be told that you are a procrastinator and that you need to make a schedule to find the time to get organized than this book is for you. But if you are truly disorganized, sitting down and making a schedule is the last thing you will find the motivation to do. The author tells you,"don't procrastinate and get organized, set goals and make a schedule," but she doesn't offer any real techniques to help, and she attributes laziness to messiness. I recommend
you read, "The New Messies Manual," by Sandra Felton. She takes the time to explain why you are disorganized, and HOW to get organized. She explains how to change your thinking to help you change your habits. Unfortunately, I expected more of that from this book. It is a waste of money and very dissapointing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, to-the-point, and effective, July 11, 1999

This review is from: How to Get Organized When You Don't Have the Time (Paperback)

Unlike many of those cutesy, yuppie-like books that -- while helpful -- are a bit too basic and simplistic, this book gets down to the nitty-gritty on how to reduce clutter in your life. I highly reccommend, even if you are reasonably organized (like me).
