Find Your Focus Zone: An Effective New Plan to Defeat Distraction and Overload

7 reviews
Lucy Jo Palladino

Free Press, 2007

One of the best self-help books I've read
When a friend put this book in my hands a few months ago, I wondered if he was trying to tell me something, and if I should be offended. Find Your Focus Zone: Hadn't I read enough time-management books or self-improvement books already? Now I've read the book -- and passed on a few copies myself -- and I'm signing on here to say that THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL SELF-HELP BOOK. For one thing, ...

Groovy is different. Get this book and learn
I feel like Groovy is like a programming language "Eintopf", it aggregates some best characteristics of a variety of programming languages. No matter which programming style you prefer - procedural, functional, object-oriented, meta-programming, static typed, dynamic typed... - Groovy has much to offer. The most beautiful thing is, you can easily combine different programming styles in one ...

Got Email? Got Eudora? Get this book!
If dealing with email were simple, we wouldn't have to cope with CYA messages that waste our time, well-meaning friends who flood us with jokes and chain letters, hundred-line messages that repeat long discussions only to add "Me too," messages that make no sense, and a multitude of other problems that turn email into a chore. We wouldn't forget where we file important messages, wouldn't ...

The Asperger Parent: How to Raise a Child with Asperger Syndrome and Maintain Your Sense of Humor

Jeffrey Cohen

Autism Asperger Publishing Company, 2002

A Great Help and a Reality Check
This book has proved invaluable to me! There are some very good books and articles available about how to "handle", how to "parent", how to "deal with" a kid on the autism spectrum. This book alone gave me far more valuable advice: how to find humor in the tough moments! More profoundly, it emphasizes that it's okay to enjoy life, to laugh, to even poke gentle fun at some of the unbelievable ...

Charles River Media, 2006

How to Find Information
There is an old expression that half of knowing anything is knowing where to find it. And there is little more frustrating to be looking at 'My Computer' trying to find what you know you have stored in a file somewhere. Well, perhaps just as frustrating is to go to one of the search engines and try to find something that you know is there but just don't know the proper words to find it. In ...

Alpha, 2008

Excellent Speed Reading Book!!
I've bought speed reading software (Speed Reader X: Speed Reading Made Easy) in the past and found it quite disappointing. Yes, you DO learn how to read faster with comprehension, but you are limited on what you learn. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Speed Reading is extremely helpful in learning MANY new methods to speed reading. It's up to date to include speed reading on-screen, and offers ...

Beyond The Nitty Gritty
I live on the Internet and e-mail is my communication tool of choice. As a computer professional I read dozens of technical books on all kinds of topics. "Overcoming Email Overload" is one of those rare books that combine technical expertise with pure fun. I have tried various schemes to handle the abundance of email that I receive daily. A few of the suggestions that Ms. Sherwood made in this ...

Making Time, Making Change: Avoiding Overload in College Teaching

9 reviews
Douglas Robertson

New Forums Press, 2003

Exceptionally useful for any college instructor/professor
It is no exaggeration to say that the author of this book changed my life. I teach at UNLV, one of three universities at which Doug Robertson established a faculty development center. Before Doug's arrival, I considered myself a fairly good teacher and had won a few teaching awards. In fact, however, I was incredibly ignorant of the principles of effective teaching. During Doug's three years ...

Morgan Kaufmann, 2007

Ahh now I get it
I'm a college dropout(Information Studies), now working in IT as a Systems Admin at a fair sized hotel. When I left college to pursue other at that time more interesting things. I couldn't really see the big picture in why we had to learn what they wanted us to. Now I do, thanks to this book. I keep feeling inspired about the management of my information. Both as PIM in my own department, but ...

E.D., Ph.D. Weinberg, Cheryl D. Garrison

Cumberland House Publishing, 2004

What Every Medical Professional (and patient) show know
I am so very pleased to recommend this book. The Iron Disorders Institute - and Dr. Weinberg, have "done it again". While the book is geared towards medical professionals, I find it quite understandable as a layperson whose family is affected by hemochromatosis/iron overload. "Exposing The Hidden Dangers of Iron" takes up where "Guide to Hemochromatosis" lets off. Especially of interest to ...

Zondervan ebook, 2004

Conquering Information Overload
This is a great book, though the title is an understatement. More than surviving information overload, it's about conquering information overload--learning how to use information to maximize your life without becoming a slave to technology. Kevin Miller has a technique for just about everything, from managing email to surfing the internet (he shows you which search engine to use for what ...

Adam R. Holz

NavPress Publishing Group, 1999

Am I really that busy?
My womens bible group read this book and found it extremely helpful in finding lost time. We are all busy people and we tend to put things aside that should have priority; for example, prayer time. I found many time wasting practices in my way of life that ate away at my time with the Lord. This study shows you: where you spend your time, how to focus better on priorities and much more. This ...

Mark Felton writes an intriguing tale, as pivotal power players in Washington D.C., as well as the 'passed over' workers, have important roles, in what it takes to keep this kind of weapon out of the hands of a ...

Authorhouse, 2003

This book is great.
This is a non stop thrill ride from Ohio to Florida. I couldn't put this book down for one second. The author's experience as a truck driver lends itself honest feeling of the book. I was able to tell that the author did not borrow from other truckers experiences. He lived them, and that is apparent in this book. I hope everyone else enjoys the book as much as I.
