Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I am always doing more than one thing at a time and feel I never do any one thing particularly well. I am always behind and always late, with one more thing and one more thing to do before rushing out the door. #2 I have a lot of anxiety about my life getting lost in this frantic flotsam of daily stuff.
I worry that I'll die and realize that my life got lost in this frantic flotsam of daily stuff. #3 I had been part of an internal work group at the Washington Post researching why so few women were reading the newspaper. I had been tasked with getting the time-use data showing how busy and time-starved women are, particularly mothers. #4 The idea that women have more leisure time than men is false.
