David Allen's book sounds great; thanks for recommending it, Dr. Mercola. I found out that it's in libraries also and can be downloaded from netlibrary in electronic format.

I need all the help I can get. I finished college a coupla years ago - didn't think it was necessary when I was a kid. Haven't been able to find a job to save myself.

I am striving, now, to (re) finish school so that I can do what I love. I -have- a doctorate in comparative religion and developmental theology, and am an ordained minister with over 25 years on my path... but because I chose to leave the US for my studies (so that I could afford to study what I wanted to study), I traded validity for my degree... as far as the US is concerned, I might as well have not gone to school after high-school at all.... so now, I'm working at a job that pays the bills, so I can pay for a doctorate at US school prices, so I can do pastoral counseling like I wanted to do. I have 6 years left for my PhD... this is a nice idea, but not practical for folks who aren't self-employed or are still on the "trying to get there track". (At 45 years old, I thought I'd be "there" by now.)

Honestly, I don't like the idea of being or sounding like a nay-sayer, but the truth always works the best.

At best, Tim Ferriss' video sounds like hyperbole. Other than that, it is mostly nonsensical and gobbledegook. I find his (Ferriss') statements and claims to be illusory and half-baked. The giggling and laughter don't help either.

Hats off to Dr. M though, his highly informative site has always been sort of a 'bible' for true health enthusiasts. Thanks to his hard work, you can always find cutting-edge health recommendations as his site continually evolves. Thank you, Dr. M!

Interesting, I'll check the book out, but there is an old classic book thats excellent for time management, it's Alan Lakein's book "How To Get Control Of Your Time And Life". Very simple and effective!
