Customer Reviews
Group Like With Like, February 1, 2003
Reviewer: John N. Mazzella from Arlington, VA USA
I found this book wonderfully rewarding to read through, anywhere at anytime. I brought it with me when I traveled and I learned several great ideas: my favorite is "group like with like". That single idea cracked my shell and has helped me organize my entire pack-rat house, as well as my parent's basement. Every room in the house is detailed, and the mnemonics (memory devices) are useful as well, such as P-L-A-C-E (Purge, Like with Like, Access, Contain, Evaluate). Very well written, and organized! The time management section were very useful as well, such as travelling tips. The "Part of Tens" section at the end was very interesting as well, but I won't give away any secrets!

This book was inspiring!, October 28, 2001
Reviewer: malaliath from Canada
This book changed the way I organize my things to such an extent. Now I come home to an orderly apartment (which is important when you live in a place the size of a postage stamp.) If you want to get organized and feel better about your surroundings, this is the place to start.

Common sense can go a long way to saving time, January 11, 2001
Reviewer: jwhatch from Albany/San Francisco, CA USA
If you want to get organized and stop wasting your time and money, then start here and now.
