Real Life Experience

Marcia Ramsland seems to draw from real life experience and feedback from her speaking engagements. Her ideas are fresh, based on biblical principles and very practical! She helps to make the transfer from knowledge to application easier.

Simple, Yet Powerful!

I have read a lot of organizing books, and this is one of the best! The advice is simple and straightforward. Reading it felt like I was getting great advice from a trusted friend or an older sister who's sharing her wisdom with me. The short prayers at the end of each chapter are beautiful and simple, and can work for any type of faith or level of spirituality. I have put into practice some of the tips in this book, and it is making a difference in my life already!

down to the basics

The previous reviewer needs to keep an open mind when reading books like this. Look on the bright side, if you are a single person, you have the benefit of only having to organize one person-yourself. The tips in this book can be applied to any situation, just keep an open mind and a positive attitude about it. I found the book to be very informative, with lots of real-life examples. It was easy to read. I appreciated the Christian theme as well, but that was not a significant part of the text. Just a short prayer at the end of each chapter. I like the fact that the author emphasizes staying organized once you are there and what to do in crisis situations. I highly recommend this book, and for the price, it can't be beat.
