Margin: Restoring Emotional, Physical, Financial, and Time Reserves to…

I have no ideological objection to Margin, but found it to read like a long rambling sermon.

Summary: progress in the Western World has put us under greater psychological stress than ever before in history. We can avoid breaking under the strain if we will stop living at or beyond our God created limits. The resulting margin will buffer us from the inevitable changes of life and allow us to focus on the truly important things - our relationships with God, ourselves and others.

Margin is the space that once existed between ourselves and our limits. It's something held in reserve for contingencies or unanticipated situations.. If you yearn for relief from the pain and pressure of overload, take a lifelong does of Margin .

A life changing book. I've recommended it more than any other book in my library. Building "margin" into every resource you have - your time, your finances, your energy level, etc. gives yourself an opportunity to be used in a mighty way by God. And, it reduces stress in your life. Be prepared for a paradigm shift. This is not what our society teaches us. This is what is wise. ( )

ok. it didn't give me the tools i was hoping it would give me. ( )
