Are you slightly disorganized? You know that paper you needed a few days ago has to be around here somewhere. Are people amazed you can function in your space? If you are a mess, this book is for you.
Organization, or cleaning up your messes, is a big business. People feel guilty when they cannot clean the way we are all think we should. This book makes it okay for normal messy folks to be who we are. Maybe, just maybe, messy is okay. The authors of this book have the proof to back it up.
This book made me laugh. Over and over again I saw myself in the stories of other disorganized souls trying to find their way. Companies hire people to study their process of organization, and in some cases realize that if they get overly organized, they are not as effective as they thought they where.
I admit it. I am a huge mess. Not that any of my other friends ever saw that side of me. Everyone I know thinks I am neat and orderly. After reading this book I don’t feel so bad about my messy nature. I know now that it’s just another side of my organized nature. Thanks Mr Abrhamson, and you to Mr Freedman. I do not have to clean up my act.
