Just So-So

This selection does offer some good suggestions and practicle advice however some of their ideas are rediculous. I would estimate that 70% of the information is valuable. Also, the website that they refer the listner to is no longer running.

Where are the PDF's for this book?

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

This book should have included pdf files of the various tables and lists that were narrated. The narrator dictating these lists was boring and rather less useful than being able to see them in printed form.

Any additional comments?

DISCOURAGING

I found this book had the makings of an obsessive compulsive rather than being an inspiration in time management.

Not going to find you any free time

And if it does, you'll be spending it organizing your fridge.

I'm only on week 4 of the 10 week program and, although some of the steps are genuinely helpful, a couple are pretty annoying (isometrics at traffic lights? kitchen dancing?).

My overall impression is that this is a more easily followed program for a stay-at-home mom or at least someone with a very flexible work schedule whose children are out of diapers. I don't qualify.

But then again, I've always done all our laundry only once a week and never felt the need to write that down.
