A Self-Help Book That's Truly Helpful
I get a lot of self-help books in the mail for my behavioral science-based radio show and I have to say, lately, I've been very disappointed. I've got quite a stack of books that have nothing really extraordinary or very helpful to say.

Well, I bought a book on Kindle the other day (and I'm quoting it in a column) and I have to say, it contains truly helpful and practical advice on time management.

The book is Time Management from the Inside Out: The Foolproof System for Taking Control of Your Schedule -- and Your Life, by Julie Morgenstern, and I've been emailing back and forth with her assistant to try to find a date in June to have her on my radio show.

I tend to try to fit too much into an hour and run late, and some of her insights have helped me rejigger my thinking in ways that will help me have an easier time being on time.
