Taming the To Do List by Glynnis Whitwer Book Tour and Book Review

 

 

 

About

Ever just wish the world would stop for a day so you could catch up?
No matter how much we accomplish in a day, we nearly always feel a little guilt over what we didn't do. But do we really have more to do than the women who came before us? Maybe not.

In Taming the To-Do List, Glynnis Whitwer exposes a seismic shift in society: from one in which most of us were proactive to one in which we carry the burden of having to respond--to every email, text, tweet, and message we receive. This creates a cycle where everyone else sets the priorities for our days rather than us directing our own lives. The result? We procrastinate, putting off the important stuff for later while we tend to the "urgent" stuff right now.

It's time to take back your schedule! Ready to tame that to-do list? This book shows you how.

My review;

"Taming the To Do List" by author Glynnis Whitwer explains to the reader ways to stop worrying about things that we are not able to always accomplish. She talks in regular everyday language about putting off things that we wanted to get done but were not able to. She gives the readers the ability to learn to direct their own lives. She talks about setting goals and sticking to them. I really liked this book and found it very interesting. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Revell Publishing Company and all opinions are mine.
