 Leave the Office Earlier and Be Home with Your Family December 21, 2007

I bought this book while juggling a difficult job which required more time at work and on the road than I anticipated. There were many good ideas for organization which were easy to put into practice. It helped me to put some living back into my life. Although a person can read it cover to cover, information can be gleaned at random when only a few minutes are available.
I have also loaned this book to other struggling young mothers and it has been interesting to see how they have chosen different tactics to improve their quality of life.

This is the best book I have read on the time management.
It covers not only the principles, but also the guidelines you can follow to improve your productivity.
I like to think of "earlier" as on time January 4, 2007

Ever watch all your co-workers leaving on time while you stay and work into the night? Today, so many office workers are burning the late-night oil, especially office managers. Laura suggests, rightfully so, that this can be completely eliminated by staying focused on completing tasks during the day. Her tips for managing tasks and time are to the point, practical, and, most importantly, easy to remember and easy to implement. Laura has provided numerous articles for OfficeOurs magazine, all of which have been very popular with our office manager and office worker readers. There is good reason she is in such demand as a speaker and we are looking forward to her keynote presentation at our annual office manager conference and her future articles and books.

I found this book so useful, and it has certainly influenced my productivity. She had a lot of great, practical advice, written in an easy to use form. I would reccommend this book to anyone who needs to become more productive at work, and even at home. She has practical advice for home as well as work. It was worth my time to read this book (and I consider my time very valuable).

I recommend this book for anyone who has lost the big picture of their life and where work fits into it. I have been very dissatified with work as of late. I feel like I work hard, I am there for long hours, but have not been as productive as others. Working through the exercises in the book has helped me more then I could have imagined! You have to do the work sheets. It is not a book to just skim through. As a result my goals are more streamline and priorites adjusted and as a result I get out of work earlier. I was spending time doings tasks that I felt were important but in reality were not. I just bought two more for my partners. Note I beleive this is very helpful for women, in particular, who spread themselves too thin and do too much multi-tasking. Women see all the little things at work that need done, do not necessarily delegate, and do those little things that others may not even notice. All of which in the end only waste time. I believe it is good for those work-a-holics who think they need to stay. On your death bed you will not say to yourself I should have spent more time at the office. Thank You. Nicole Bunch
