review 1: Got this on a whim, because i have a weakness for organizing books which i study and then never actually act upon. It was okay, i liked it, but I really wanted to like it more than that, and... i just couldn't. Carlomagno had a great idea, and the format was good too; but it lacked that sense of, well, at least for me, accomplishment. Maybe if the 52 weeks of ideas had been more structured? Like a ladder with steps maybe if you felt like you were getting more of something done? The barn door is perhaps too wide open? BUT this may be perfect for someone else who doesn't need a time schedule looming to make sure things actually get accomplished. It is a very relaxed happy book.
review 2: More than half way through this quick self-help book focused on un-clut... moretering your life literally and figuratively. It's mostly advice we've heard or read before (if you pick up any woman's magazine), but Carlomagno offers good advice in a realistic way. Given are small ways of changing troublesome areas of your life over time. 52 chapters for 52 weeks pretty much sums up that idea. Quick read. I'm in the process of planning another move. Thought this might motivate me to pare down the stuff that surrounds me (and has followed me around, still in their boxes, for over a decade). Completed one large and one small purge so far. Pick a favorite charity and donate to those who need it :) Just as important, think hard before bringing more stuff into the house! It really is more about getting rid of stuff. When your home is uncluttered, it clears your mind, gives you focus and energy for the important stuff. Who knows--it may give you a little more peace and happiness. I'm game! less
