A co-worker of mine (Marquita Brooks) gave me this book to read. I could not put it down. I read it in 1 day. This book touched my heart and related to my past in so many ways. It made me realize just how far I have come and what all I have accomplished after all that I have gone through and know that it is only by the grace of God that I am where I am today.

It doesn't matter what your past was or where you are in the present, this book will touch your heart and you will be able to relate in some way. Jan Davis is a very strong woman and I hope that my walk with God will continue to help me be strong.

I am a contractor for IBM.  I borrowed this book from a coworker on a fluke incident.  I noticed that other professionals were giving me other than normal professional compliments.  I decided that if just caring the book brings on this type of response, then heck, I may as well read it.  I am ordering it now.  I will let you know how it affects my professional and personal life later.  Bernard, Hotlanta, Georgia

I believe this is the book I stumbled across in Marfa, Texas, a couple of weeks ago.(Marfa Books)  I was drawn to it because of the extensive coverage of Hvittrask, which my wife and I were so fortunate to discover on a visit to Finland in the early 1970s. The book I saw in Marfa was elegant and full of excellent photos.  I want to make sure it's the right thing before I buy it,

While working yesterday, I noticed a lady's mustache and had to giggle a little.  I wanted to suggest the book to her as I noticed she probably shaved hers.  The book was insightful, but also hilarious at the same time.

Yes, I love this book. I had heard of Corrie Tenboom but didn't know her background until getting this book. I appreciate her kindness that comes through, the fact that here she tells a complete story in a few pages, which gives me the opportunity to put the book down without guilt and dwell on the reason behind the story.  I will get more of her books, because somehow she relates to/touches me.  I think it is because she leads by example.  Thank you.

I thought the book was awesome!  I found out that it was written by a colleague of mine, who is exceptional in her work.  She is a force to be reckoned with, and her book is an example of her strength and fortitude.

I read Marina Spence's 'Make Every Day A Friday' at a critical point in my career. Every night I would read a chapter before going to sleep. In the morning, I would consider what I'd read and muse on it during my work day. By the time I was done with the book, I had a clear idea of what worked - and what didn't - in my current job, and what I needed to do to create the job of my dreams. By taking the necessary steps, I didn't try to recreate the wheel and I didn't burn any bridges. I can honestly say that I have never felt so empowered and been so happy in my professional life. Thanks Marina!

I once owned a copy of this book in my early 20's and after reading it I was telling a co worker that I could not put this book down while I was reading it ... every page I found out something new. I loaned the book to him and 2 months later he moved (taking my only copy) and I never heard from him again. When I tried ordering another one I was told that the book was out of print. I had been searching for 8 years when I tried it out through amazon.com and there were nearly 50 used copies availible ! I bought 3 - I gave one to an employee (I am self employeed now) and I plan to keep the other 2 for myself.

My friend Alma just informed me that her first book was published and I just could not wait to buy it. I expect to receive it January 2, 2018. I am so proud of my childhood friend and she is an excellent writer. To Yahweh Be the Glory!!  Martha-Maggie-Winston-Rulez

That book is an excellent gift and it came to me at the right moment. I was also convalescing and had lots of free time while laying on my back, so I read and read and read. It helped me to be more patient with myself and try daily not to do more than I could, which was not much. I'm still a long way to go but just as the author said, I am concentrating on "the task at my elbow," and that's all I need to do for today.

The epilogue where the author explains the diagnosis was also helpful. I have relayed the information about the patient illness to a friend whose daughter is having the same symptoms and the doctors have not been able to find out exactly what the problem is. Perhaps this will help her also.

Excellent book. I recommended highly.

Just started it, and I can already tell this guy is good; he gets that it has nothing to do with the actual visible stuff...this is an internal thing.  So many people want to help, and mean well, but it is hard to get through to them that a bad clutter thing is not solved by a steam roller-look -what-I- did-for -you clearing. Without digging for the reasons why it got so bad, and working on fixing those...a reclutter will occur, and all parties will be even more uncomfortable than before.  Brooks Palmer is a friend and true support in my corner--makes me feel okay enough to trust his help in helping me help myself --I think I'm going to make it this time:)

I had the opportunity to read this book in manuscript form, before it was published.  I laughed, I cried, I nodded my head and said, "oh yeah, that's me!"  As I read it (on an airplane) I started writing the names of the women I knew that abspolutely HAD to read it - that NEEDED to hear this message - on the front page.  I put stars beside the names of the women that need it FIRST - they might not be able to wait until it was actually published.  When I finished reading the manuscript, I counted the names . . . 36.  The number with "stars" . . . 24.  I've been in the book publishing business for almost 20 years.  I'm an avid reader.  This is one of the most important books I've ever read.
