Apologies. Actually, I read the first (1995) edition, so it was definitely out-dated with regards to filing, "electronic tools", etc. Better sections of this book included common-sense guidance on what you value and where you should focus your life's efforts.

I was surprised at how many subjects this book covers. It literally touches on every aspect of life and how to simplify. This is NOT a de-cluttering book like I first suspected. In fact, it doesn't encourage you to throw out everything the way many de-cluttering books do. The book even tells you to only read the sections that apply to you, so it isn't so daunting to read. I really enjoyed all the suggestions, and the end of chapter summaries were very useful as a memory aid.

Holy cow, what a useful book. I'm fairly new to the art of public speaking, and years later after this book was published, the information is still vital and appropriate to novice speakers everywhere. From you eye contact to researching your topic to making the appropriate pauses at the end of particular syllables, this guide is in fact, complete. I've delivered one successful speech since having read this book, and I can say that it definitely helped me. Worth reading at the very least; you show more will pick up tips whether you meant to or not. show less

Great all purpose guide to organizing your spaces at home! Lots of tips and tricks for every room and attractive enough to be displayed out on the coffee table or bookshelf when you've finished. Some of the tips are actually fairly obvious in this book, but the author's style is straightforward, refreshing , and have minimal costs; if something does cost money, then he tells you how to budget for the item in question. Definitely worth having a gander at.
