 The Get Organized Answer Book: Practical Solutions for 275 Questions on Con (Book) - 12/9/2019 9:43:01 AM
Your books have been, from your five-star reviews, quite successful although appear to be a bit repetitive, always on the same or similar subjects. From early childhood when I learned from my mother's amazing organizational skills, I have been organized. I find keeping records much better than keeping stuff. And kept spreadsheets many years before they were called, spreadsheets. The only self-help book that I ever bought was a book on how to prune. It served me well until I could no longer physically prune or any of the other myriad things I did to keep my household beautiful and uncluttered as well as my working life. About 30 years ago, I had to start hiring people to do things for me with their hands and arms that includes handling all of my stuff. My primary caregiver/partner is a wonderful lady working 24/7 like a superwoman, but sometimes quite an eclectic and disorganized, making my house look like someone haphazardly dropped things all around, piled up things unrelated and generally has been disorganizing what I organized so well myself. Fortunately, I got her an iPad. So now when she wants to learn to do something, from swimming, spelling, gardening to cooking, she just finds a video that shows her how. She's even learning how to prune without my lost book, that way. Fortunately, I've always been into using computers for organizing and going paperless whenever possible, saving countless trees and avoiding having documents lying around no one can find for me. It takes time to name files rather than have Microsoft make stupid filenames and ditch files in limbo, but it pays off when 10 years later I can find a document by a simple search, either through my filing tree or a search engine. I believe that people who buy how-to books probably have their house cluttered with them. Ron
