The biggest game-changing book for me was *10 Natural Laws of Successful Time and Life Management* by Hyrum Smith. After that I read* 7 Habits of Highly Successful People* by Steven Covey. I had seen 7 Habits in books stores for years, but had avoided it. It was so popular that I expected it to be a bunch of superficial pop-psychology junk. But in fact it is an excellent book. I highly recommend it...to everyone! I think that Smith and Covey actually are religious folks, and that is often a turn-off for me, but they both do a really good job about keeping that out of their books. Really there's no church content at all and they're not "preachy." *Time-Management form the Inside-Out* (Julia Morgenstern) is decent. Not a "game changer" but worth reading. And, obviously, folks need to read *Getting Things Done* by David Allen. Smith and Covey help us focus on things that are "wholistically" important, for lack of a better term--but Allen gives us real world nuts and bolt tools that will make or break us. Side Note: There is going to be a 2015 edition of David Allen's book... You can "pre-order" the Kindle edition on Amazon... I'm not sure about the paper version though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
