Inspirational

Revisado: 05-21-24

I absolutely loved this unique, genuine, beautiful book. I found it incredibly inspiring. I want Diane's words wallpapered all over my walls. It's full of self-love, challenging oneself, and appreciating beauty, all presented in a unique dictionary format. I wouldn't be surprised if I listen to this one multiple times.

Listened With My Husband / Business Partner

Revisado: 03-08-23

My husband and I had to go on a business roadtrip and we listened to this together. We really enjoyed it. It was refreshing to hear the success story of two hardworking individuals. Our biggest take away was boundaries... we don't want to lose ourselves to our business.

Seemingly-grim task presented in a charming light

Revisado: 12-28-22

A charming book about the inevitable subject that no one really wants to hear or talk about. We all have to face it sometime or another, whether it be our loved ones or ourselves. Death. Things. Decisions.  No matter what, the living are faced with decisions while grieving, which is a very difficult time to be presented with decisions, especially when it comes to keeping things, throwing away, donating, selling, or passing on. This book is all about making things easier for your loved ones. Margareta Magnuson affords us the entire topic with concise, easy to digest steps, all while being interesting and witty. While my personal approach as a Professional Organizer may be different than hers, the message is still the same: make decisions now so your family doesn't have to later. I'm looking forward to her next book in the coming year because this one was certainly a winner for me.

Could've been a quarter its length.

Revisado: 11-04-22

I really struggled to finish.... truly struggled. I've read/listened to a lot of books like this one and no one has seemed more like a junior blogger recycling her blog posts into a chatty book. It is very difficult to believe this woman has helped as many as she says she has. But maybe she's just not my style. Not at all. The only portion of the entire book that felt useful was the Reclaiming the Morning bit, but I even disagreed with her approach to that (it was originally confusing. I didn't know if she was telling us to have a morning Bible study or make a to do list). Additionally, she discourages watching reality TV or following people that will make you desire a version of "The Good Life" that isn't your own, while she then continues to refer to herself as Beyonce and is obsessed with all things Beyonce. Then, her before and after life mission statements were ridiculous. She said they needed to be specific and meaningful to the person, and not apply to everyone, but then proceeds to end up with statements that feel very disgenuous. I could go on, but I'm done giving this book any more of my attention. I want my Amazon credit back.

Really Really Good

Revisado: 02-27-22

I can definitely see me revisiting some of these for a boost now and then. I listened to one a day for two weeks. Loved it.
