Read GYAT before SHE if you buy both books!
I bought Sidetracked Home Executive in 1983 and I did the program. It worked for me as a mother of two young boys. I bought SHE as a gift for a newly-wed friend and "Get Your Act Together" for me. I read the book and laughed and cried as I related to the sisters stories and tricks and tips for those of us who are born disorganized. I like the new format for the card system. I can't wait to ...

Captures the pain and glory of personal challenges
This amazingly honest book captures the pain and glory of struggling with personal challenges, enabling the reader to have numerous "ah hah" experiences along the way. As the authors share their personal stories and epiphanies, I was able to step back and take a look at my own drama with fresh eyes and a more positive attitude.

Practical Book for Christians
Don Hawkins does an excellent job of applying timeless biblical principles to the problems of today's workplace. His approach to stress is practical and biblical. The previous reviewer's negative review was obviously affected by his worldview, which is apparently not a biblical one. Don Hawkins uses biblical principles - if this is not your cup of tea, you will not find the book useful. However, ...
