3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, April 26, 2005
I hate to be the lone party pooper here, but I really was not terribly impressed with this book. I suppose I had high hopes because I feel I could definitely stand to improve on my time management skills (not to mention self-care habits), but I didn't find much of anything that I hadn't heard before or thought of myself. Maybe I should give myself credit for being more organized than I think I am (or at least for knowing what *needs* to be done, even if I don't always do it!) I have not yet completed all of the worksheets she provides, although I did print them from her website. I just can't see how any of this is going to bring me to any earth-shattering revelations. The quotes from other moms were mostly ideas I'd heard before, and many were very general and not helpful in the least (e.g., "Keep organized" and "Stay on top of things")! I agree with the basic premise of the book, but I already knew that it's impossible to be a good mother if you don't learn to put your own needs first and nurture yourself. Unfortunately, this book didn't offer any new or creative suggestions for doing that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful, doable activities, a truly empowering read!!!, November 30, 2003
Mom Management helped me focus in a way that I have never been able to focus before. Tracy Lyn's book is well-written, clear, and chock full of wisdom. It served to encourage me to go for the things that I wanted to get to for a long time. For instance, I finally submitted a short story to a literary magazine that I had wanted to send for some time. Placing that task under her category for "immediate goals," I went for it. It was accepted by the magazine editor within one hour!

Mom Management helps the reader actually recognize and then utilize the tools that she already possesses. It motivates the reader to eliminate wasteful activity, drives home the message of prioritizing and helps the reader, in a non-threatening manner, to work towards her dreams with great love and encouragement. Tracy is so real, so honest, and incredibly open in communicating her commitment to helping others. I highly recommend her book to everyone, mother or not, who is looking to hone their time management skills!

5.0 out of 5 stars Mom Management Provides the Tools to Find Oneself, October 2, 2003
By Alice (Surrey BC Canada) - See all my reviews
This book is a reminder that as a mom, it's okay for you to take care of yourself. In fact, it is necessary. That way, you can take better care of your family.

The book is filled with practical tools to help you take control of your time, including: finding time for yourself; achieving your dreams, all the while finding balance in your family life.

The book takes you through an exploration of your dreams and creating a Life Map to help you achieve those dreams. It provides you with a practical way to eliminating time wasters, finding time alone, taking care of your health and getting organized. Filled with a ton of very relevant quotes, it's sure to be an inspiration to any mom who reads it.

If you're expecting this book to find all the answers for you, look elsewhere. No book can find all the answers to "you". This book is an exploration of self and IS about finding the ME in MOMMEEE. You are provided with the tools and you'll need to sweat a little before you get there.
