Organizing and Big Scary Goals offers readers alternative, customizable, and most importantly, realistic ways to look at and reflect upon what is possible with managing the overwhelming stuff of everyday life. Through a series of relatable anecdotes, thought-provoking questions, and the author’s personal quest to tackle a tough challenge, readers gain insight on tapping into different ways to approach their organizing stuck spots without relying upon one-size-fits-all solutions. Organizing and Big Scary Goals reads like a series of short stories with doses of humor and irony - ideal for anyone who has experienced frustration, shame, and even fear about meeting the organizational standards of others. Book Review 1: "This book is not just for people like me who have an attention disorder. It can help anyone to overcome immobilizing perfectionism, hopeless resignation, and fear that may arise when confronting challenges associated with organizing. Sara Skillen has taken what I once believed was too overwhelming and complex to manage, and made it manageable." -- Terry M. Huff, LCSW, author of Living Well With ADHD Book Review 2: "Sara talks to ‘real’ people and in ‘real people language’, and Organizing and Big Scary Goals resonates with those of us who experience self-doubt, self-criticism, and at times, lack of confidence. I love that she works on her goal right there alongside the reader, and I am sooo ready to get organized after reading this book!" -- Cindy Chafin, M.Ed., MCHES, editor of New Focus Daily
