This book is easy to understand and it is filled with useful tips for getting organized - even if you don't have ADD. It is laid out in chapters with titles like "Getting Over Overwhelm" and "First Things First: Learning to Prioritize" that are easy to relate to. I was just skimming the first time I read it, but even at that level I picked up some tips that have already proved useful. It was written by a professional organizer and a clinician who specializes in ADD, and their methods and suggestions for organizing really work.

I checked this book out from a counselor from the school I was working at thinking it would help with some of the AD/HD related issues many of my coworkers (teachers) were having with their students. After reading through it, it became apparent that this is a very useful book of reference for sufferers as well as supporters. There are great descriptions, such as "if this sounds like you". It gave issues a category, a reason, a solution or three, and a motivator. There are tips for supporters who AD/HD folks might need to help them out in the streamlining process- monitors and coaches. I wish I could get my parents and husband to read this book because they would definitely understand me better. I am using the strategies in this book to help me understand myself right now. I have been able to purge areas of the house, understand a better way to clean up, become more focused, etc. I highly recommend this book for anyone in college or grad school as an excellent reference for term papers.

This is the best book I have read on how to deal with adult ADD. (and I read lots of books!) I have incorprated several ideas from this book. I highly recommend this book!

Wonderful transaction-would recommend
