Reviews

Book Review 1:

"This book is not just for people like me who have an attention disorder. It can help anyone to overcome immobilizing perfectionism, hopeless resignation, and fear that may arise when confronting challenges associated with organizing. Sara Skillen has taken what I once believed was too overwhelming and complex to manage, and made it manageable." -- Terry M. Huff, LCSW, author of Living Well With ADHD

Book Review 2:

"Sara talks to 'real' people and in 'real people language', and Organizing and Big Scary Goals resonates with those of us who experience self-doubt, self-criticism, and at times, lack of confidence. I love that she works on her goal right there alongside the reader, and I am sooo ready to get organized after reading this book!" -- Cindy Chafin, M.Ed., MCHES, editor of New Focus Daily
