None. If your life is a chaotic mess that is dotted with missed deadlines, mounting paperwork and jumbled priorities, then Morgenstern's book will likely be helpful. Fortunately, I consider myself to be a fairly productive person (most of the time). Hence, I was searching for some time-management tips that went beyond common sense steps. Consider Morgenstern's work time management 101. Skip it if you're already fairly adept at prioritizing tasks and juggling multiple challenges. But for those folks who feel perpetually behind in grappling with life's many demands, you'll find some helpful nuggets in this book. This is clearly the author's main target audience. ( )These days we are overwhelmed by balancing work and family life and overwhelmed with clutter. As a follow-up to her best-selling book Organizing From the Inside Out, Julie Morgenstern is back again and ready to help you take back your time. Did you know that the average person loses one to two hours per day searching for items? Stop wasting that time! Morgenstern will show you techniques for setting time management goals, tips for choosing the right kind of planner, tips for getting things done faster, and how to say no to things that you don’t really need to do. If you often find yourself saying, “If only there were more hours in the day,” then this book is for you! This is a good book on time management. I enjoyed it and I have recently started using some of the techniques and they do work. a lot of common sense stuff and tips I've read in various forms (mostly similar concepts in software management). It ties it together quite nicely. I'm slowly trying to adopt some of these methods and I'm impressed enough I got her book on organization from the library to read and considering buying both. One of the few time management books that actually makes sense for insanely busy people. Julie Morgenstern really hit the nail on the head for me when she pointed out that if you don't block off time to tackle a task, you're not going to get to that task in this lifetime. (She wasn't quite that melodramatic about it, but that's the main idea.) A fabulous book! no reviews | add a review
