This book is mostly about clearing clutter, not about overcoming procrastination. There are some useful tips, but most of it is a rehash of things I've read before. Some of the content seems disorganized. There is even one full paragraph that is nothing but one cliche after another about how to motivate yourself. In fairness, the book seems to have been developed from a workshop series, and I can see how it would go well in such a setting. But if you are dealing with problems of procrastination, this book won't really help. If you are dealing with lots of clutter, you can find more and better ideas elsewhere.

An easy-to-read book packed with ideas that I was easily able to incorporate into my life. The author made it fun for me to once again get control of my house and paperwork. I highly recommend this book to the most disorganized of pack rats anywhere.

My son gave this book to me about 10 years ago. I quickly glanced through it then and thought it might be valuable in the future. I kept it in my magazine rack in the master bedroom. This summer when I decided that I needed to organize myself a little better I found the book and it has literally changed my way of thinking about organizing my house. It is fantastic and I read a few pages every night. I am energized by the author's suggestions and her support of people who are really having trouble because they are "Pack Rats".

This is a book that gives you solid, basic organizing ideas for your apartment, home, dorm room etc. I wish I had read it 10 years ago, but Pamela also tells you its never too late. I recently told my son it's one of the best presentls he ever gave me. How about that? It's nice to see it is still available. If this book doesn't help you well.............wht can I say?
