The 411:
This book came at the perfect time for me. My kids are getting older and at 50 my shelf life for a new career isn't looking that bright but I still have some life left in this skin so I appreciate the steps Deborah talks about that will hopefully help me jump start my career.
The book is laid out in 8 easy to follow steps such as first getting a handle on your now mommy busy life.
It was interesting to sit down and fill out the charts to see where my time is being wasted. I get up about 4:45 or earlier every day except the weekend where I sleep until about 7:00 all I want to do is head to the couch. Usually it isn't for good until 9 when the kids are in bed. Laundry, showers, clothes out for the next day, cleaning the kitchen all happen between 7-8 however I am currently off Tuesdays and Thursdays unless called in so I am planning on making those the days I sit down and hammer out the plan Deborah sets forth in this book.
I am completely confident that after finishing all the steps I will reclaim my life and either manage my time better, look for another career or at least know the path I am going to take.
My favorite section was the Expert List Circling Exercise. I had no idea I was so proficient in so many things.
This was very interesting. Might buy the book.
