Time Management from the Inside Out: The Foolproof System for Taking Control of Your Schedule and Your Life ASIN: 0805064699
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: Make Sense of Your Schedule, Achieve Your Goals
Comments: I found Julie Morgenstern's first book, Organizing from the Inside Out, so helpful, that I was happy to buy this one (and this from someone who rarely buys books when I can just check them out of the library--I never actually bought the first book!). It uses the exact same principals as the first book, only geared towards time management. The principals are organized and logical, and really help you make sense of your schedule. And it will help you create a schedule that will help you achieve your goals and achieve balance in your life. She covers time management briefly in the first book. (In fact, she highly recommended using a planner and so I bought one and have found it extremely helpful). Here she gets into more detail, and I found the extra detail on how to create a time map especially helpful. I am working on my own time map now. It's too early to say that I have mastered time management (it does take time, after all). But I am starting to feel a sense of control over my time and space and that is more valuable than I had previously realized. She recommends reading the first book first, because working with the space in your home is more tangible than working with time. I agree.

How to Get Control of Your Time and Your Life ASIN: 0451167724
Customer's Rating: 5 Summary: This is the most important life planning book I ever read
Comments: When Alan Laiken wrote this book in 1973 he built a mechanism for building goals that I still use today. The method of asking Laikens questions has been a critical part of my personnel success. I have given away perhaps 50 copies of the book over the last 25 years. A timeless classic on career and time management.
