Quotes

  • “Burton…addresses the problem of rushed and overloaded lives in sympathetic, persuasive language, confessing that she, too, was once part of the busyness epidemic…[this book] is a wake-up call, an effective and inspiring plan for change.” 

    — Publishers Weekly

  • “Rather than offer a quick fix, author and life coach Burton… proposes a self-care lifestyle in which adherents will be less busy and more fruitful, well rounded, and productive.”

    — Library Journal

  • “[Burton’s] enjoyable voice and warm reading style contribute to the program’s pleasant helpful tone.”

    " This book would probably be quite useful for workaholics, but that label does not apply to me at all. Some of the suggestions the author gives (make time for exercise, do something for yourself every week, etc) are the very reasons my life is crazy. "

    " I enjoyed the book, and learned a few great new techniques for making improvements. I still see problems in the fact that it seems like part of her solution is to give up on somethings to make more time. Being an incredibly driven person, sometimes I feel that the sacrifice is worthy of the ends. "
