Cleaned up my act with Checklists
Inside, I'm a small, very neat and tidy person. Outside, I'm a large, messy, and disorganized person who has trouble keeping things clean -- let alone neat! Checklists For Life has helped me with my New Year's Resolution of cleaning up my act. I didn't think I needed help doing laundry, but I actually learned a lot from that list. I also got some help grocery shopping so there is something besides Twinkies and Little Debbies in my kitchen cupboards. And now that I've incorporated the shortcuts for housecleaning in "From Pigsty to Presentable in Six Steps," my friends won't be afraid to eat at my apartment anymore.

Great for List-o-phobes
Although I am a somewhat compulsive list-maker (inherited from a military family), my husband is completely anti-list. He somehow believes that making a list is giving in and admitting that he can't remember everything (which he can't, but why be logical?). I bought this for him as a starter, so he could see that someone besides his wife believes in lists, enough to publish a whole book about them! He is now warming up to the idea of lists, thanks to this book, and I am also thrilled because it had some lists that even I had never thought of.I think this is a great gift for anyone starting out (in life, or just in getting organized) -- I've already given two copies away.

A Good Reference for a Range of Situations
I bought this book years ago and still enjoy referencing it for the occasions that I had yet to encounter. The author's style is simple and concise, yet friendly. No one book, without being incredibly bulky, will cover every possible checklist, but this one proves itself to be extremely helpful. Similar Products
