Timely shipping and the product is in great shape. So far I'm really enjoying the book and can see employing the ideas and suggestions the author is presenting. I would recommend this book.

I've been recommending this book to friends, colleagues, and my family... it's not exactly rocket science, but it helped me think about my stuff in a new way. She goes through a process to help you clean out and get rid of physical stuff, schedule clutter and outdated habits. And that resulted in 140 pounds of stuff to the dump yesterday and about that much to the Salvation Army this morning.

More importantly, there is nothing left in my house that makes me wince when I see it-- "I should really take guitar lessons again so that I can use that birthday present from 10 years ago..." or "Now which of these lace doilies did grandma love? If only I knew then I'd know which to keep in her memory..."-- you get the idea. And now I have space in my guest room closet, not to mention in my OWN closet, for the first time in years!

My calendar was already pretty much under control, so now I'm moving on to my bad habits for my next SHED. That's the toughest area for me, but with the house and schedule so clean, what else do I have to worry about?!?

This book has an amazing effect! I went through the book with a commitment to use the best of Julia Morgenstern's wisdom, and I made amazing changes in my life.

The best of all her works, this book is brilliant, wise, and full of examples of her clients who have worked through their confusion about how to organize. The big picture she offers is how to name the "chapter" of your life that you are moving from, and to name the new chapter of what you want now. She offers three portals of entry into your organization challenges: calendar control, clearing what does not not add to your new chapter, and improving habits of thought. Now you have a reliable measure of what will help you to get where you are going. Text and workbook, this is a great companion for a life change journey. A confidence builder and a practical how to guide, "When Organizing Isn't Enough" is innovative, deep, and effective.

She also has a great time management system that she sells through Franklin Covey and her own website.

This book is a winner and can make a winner out of you! I highly recommend it! Spiritual (inner) and practical (outer)growth are the benefits that await!

This book gets to the root of how to de-clutter your life in three areas: stuff, time, and habits. Julie ties it all together very clearly with real life examples and step-by-step methods to examine what is right for you. She helps you understand what is/has been holding you back from moving forward. I have gone back to this book many times for ideas and reminders. Well worth the time to read. She's writes in a straight-forward manner which makes it easy to read.

This is a very thought-provoking book. It covers a lot of ground, not just the nuts and bolts of organizing. I got it for a friend I'm going to help de-clutter, as I wanted him and his partner to get into the whys of their habits before we start pitching things.
