Average Rating: Rating: - This Book WILL Help You Get Organized ! This currently popular 262 page softbound volume really can help ANYONE become better organized for a better life. This was recommended to me by a friend, but I was doubtful that it could help. The other books I read on this subject didn't do the job for me. I was pleasantly surprised that by followingMs. Morgenstern's recommendations I really am able to put some organization into the clutter that I've learned to live with. She explains systems to use, without the need for all of the store bought gadgets I've tried in the past. By following her simple steps you really CAN get your stuff in order and become more productive with better use of your time. Her Three Step System is useful at home or work, and can be used by anyone, regardless of their level of clutter. The time frames that she presents helps you get started and motivated to carry the tips on to completion. You'll learn why you feel disorganized and why now is the time to act to aleviate it once and for all. It's probably not your fault that you've always been disorganized. All you really need is the expert advice offered in this book to get you onto a better more organized work and home life. Her simple philosophy is SPACE. Mainly sort, purge, assign a home, containerize, equalize. No magic or gimicks, just sound, tried and tested advice. Well worth reading. Rating: - This book is a rich and valuable resource!! Why didn't anyone think of this before? It seems so obvious. Organization is not something grafted onto your life from the outside--it's a personal issue. If you want to get organized, look to yourself--your needs, your habits, what works (or doesn't work) for you. Once you've dealt with those issues, build a strategy that fits your needs and personal style. Julie's book is a user-friendly, quick and easy read--she guides you step-by-step with the grace and good humor of a friend who understands and is there to help. Parts I and II are essential reading and set the foundation; in Part III you read only what applies to your situation. Simple! Throughout there are hundreds of excellent tips--and they actually work! One of the great things about the book is this: not only did I get organized but in the process discovered a lot about myself and, surprisingly, the strategy for organizing my office became available to me as a resource in all areas of my life! Ignore the internet graffiti from "readers" from Maine and Colorado--these schlemiels didn't even read the book! For those who take their needs seriously, get this book. It's a gift. Thanks Julie. c Rating: - Finally! Organizing ideas that work with your personality! Most articles and books on getting organized offer great solutions but ignore the problems that got you there. This book gets to the heart of the psychological "quirks" and common mistakes each of us make and helps you work with those quirks to find solutions that are just right for you. For each area you want organized, she asks you "what's working", "what's not working", "what items are essential", and "why do you want to get organized" and "what's causing the problems". She offers plans to "strategize" and "attack" while listing common pitfalls and insider tips. She also provides estimates for how long it may take for each attack step (sort, purge, assign a home, containerize, equalize), which really helped me set expectations for getting the mess under control and maintaining it. The "what questions to ask before buying that next organizing container, gizmo or gadget" section is a real money-saver! Bottom line - You'll learn how to design an organizing plan based on your goals, your natural habits, and your psychological needs. Read this book, design and execute your plan, and get ready to feel liberated and empowered!
