Average Customer Rating: 
Good source for reference 2008-09-06 I found this book to be highly resourceful, and I intent to keep it in my reference librabry for future use.
Excellent advice, not so excellent stories 2007-12-04 I would have given this book 5 stars had it not been full of dreadful, neatly packaged stories. I understand that the writer is trying to use examples to demonstrate principles but they come across as far too contrived.
HOWEVER, and it is a big however...the book is full of very useful pieces of advice that I have found very interesting and helpful. She has lots of wonderful solutions to everyday problems faced by the average woman and suggests many clever habits to develop. Anyone who puts her advice into practice will definitely simplify their life!
Overall - excellent.
Very Practical and Useful 2007-06-18 Everything about this book is organized - including the way Marcia Ramsfield presents her systematic method of simplifying all the major compartments of life. She presents practical ideas that are immediately usable and are designed to have life at home and at work running smoothly with as little maintenance as possible.
First, this book is definitely geared toward women, whether working or homemakers. It also includes a short devotional and prayer at the end of each chapter for those who are interested in incorporating it.
I liked the way Ramsfield suggests targeting one facet of life's stressors at a time and really focuses on helping the reader get control over it before moving to the next. She begins with mealtimes and moves through clothes & laundry, cleaning, and projects. She then focuses on special areas, including work life and holidays.
I felt her chapter on holiday organization was especially helpful, and her chapter on cleaning was a bit weak. I didn't feel better equipped to develop my own cleaning schedule based on that chapter. I feel the rest of the book does compensate for that weak point.
This book focuses more on simplification of the stressful facets of life rather than direct organizational techniques. It is about developing good habits, but does incorporate some practical suggestions for your tangible organization needs. For an excellent resource of the nitty-gritty organizational specifics, I highly recommend "Confessions of an Organized Homemaker" by Deniece Schofield.
Organize Your Life 2007-04-04 Get organized and stay that way after checking out all the tips in this book. The simple ideas are very easy to put into practice.
