Cheaper Than Therapy: How to Keep Life's Small Problems from Becoming Big Ones

Coping with Clutter
This charmingly simple book spoke volumes to me about the dangers of a disorganized life, and brought to mind several practical applications. If I don't hang up my clothes every night, my bedroom is soon an unworkable mess. If I don't take care of my mail (and other paperwork) diligently and often, it soon becomes overwhelming, and I can't find that piece of paper I really need. If I don't ...

Truley 10 stars
One day I looked at myself in a full length mirror. As I stood there in my underwear my eyes closed in shame. I couldnt believe I allowed myself to get to this point. After three children, I felt like I would never get my body (any body) back. I fell on the floor in my bedroom and wept for God to show me what to do. Gluttony was my biggest sin. My idol. My obsession. I cried to God to save ...

A DELIGHT TO THE EYE, GREAT STORY AND KIDS LOVE IT.
This is a wonderfully written story of a young python, a young yellow python, who does not want to grow old a boring like the adult green pythons he see around him. The art work in this slender book is absolutely breath taking. The artist has blended his colors perfectly and created life like studies of these wonderful snakes but not life like situations as far as the snake world goes. This is ...

This is the story about one of the greatest of such entities, Sirius - the Dogstar.

Getting Organized: Improving Focus, Organization and Productivity

Practical ideas that produce results
You won't get rich from simply reading a "How to Get Rich" book and you won't get organized and productive from just reading any book - you have to take action and implement the ideas. I have used the principles and ideas outlined in "Getting Organized" for several years and found them to be extremely valuable. Becoming more organized and productive is not a matter of what type of filing ...

Title piqued your curiosity?
If you are reading this review, you have been sucked in by the title, probably because you somehow relate. If so, then the topic is of huge significance to you. The book is solid, and the content reflects the title. Regardless of your background, if you have a Christian faith and desire to live out that faith with your children, then bring your highlighter and keep notes as you read.

A transformative experience
I don't know why this book called my name as I chanced upon it at a bookstore. But, it did. I picked it up, began reading, read at every opportunity, ordered the sequel before I was finished, moved right on to the sequel, and am now re-reading the first book. I even e-mailed Mitchell Chefitz (he answered my e-mail, by the way). I hardly recognize myself. This book is transformative. It took this ...

The Need for Practice
This is just a footnote to the other reviews, especially the one that wants more of the "how" to implement the author's suggestions. Ricard is one of the finest students of one of the finest teachers of the Tibetan tradition as is, for example, the very popular author Pema Chödrön. Chödrön's books and "Happiness" by Ricard share the same characteristic: they make great inspirational reading BUT ...

This book delivers what it promises - FREEDOM!
This book has all the information one needs to be set from from all pornographic and sexual addictions. The material is very clear and easy to understand. Personal application of the lessons is emphasized; when a person applies the truths taught, they WILL be free from pornography - no doubt about it! The following two paragraphs are part of my personal testimony, which is the end result of one ...

Focus, 2007
Excellent Book!
I really enjoyed this book. Being from Chicago as well, I felt an ever closer connection to the author and his story. I had a real hard time putting it down and I had to keep tissue close by whenever I was reading it. As a Mother, it was especially heart wrenching to read some of the thoughts and emotions the author experienced as a child. Such wonderful writing and expression - always feeling ...
