      May 27, 2002: As a Professional Organizer, I have read many books on how to get organized but, How To Be Organized In Spite of Yourself addresses the most important aspect of getting organized - working with your own personal style. With 10 categories to choose from, you're bound to recognize your particular style or combination of styles. Are you a perfectionist? Find out why your style has been working against you and discover solutions to help you overcome the problems that have been keeping you from attaining your organizing goals. Filled with practical advice, this book will take the guesswork out of how to get organized, because it goes beyond the usual quick fix solutions that might help you in the short term. Discover your own personal organizing and space management styles, then get tips on how to adapt your methods to make the best use of your particular style for managing your space and your time. And you'll do it YOUR way so you will be more likely to see ongoing results! Are you a Hopper? Hoppers have many projects on the go but never seem to finish them, with the suggestions and tips provided you'll discover how to take advantage of the positive aspects of your way of working. You can still be busy but you won't be exhausted and you'll actually start seeing some results from all your efforts. Filled with charts, lists and helpful case histories, this book is a must-have for anyone who wants to get organized and stay organized. On those days when you feel overwhelmed, a quick review of your style chapter will motivate you to get busy and back on track. The many tips will prod you to action and keep you motivated. I had no hesitation in recommending this book for my organizing course at SuiteU and I know my students have also found it to be very inspiring. Highly recommended.
