Reading this right on the heels of Sarah Knight's other book, The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving a Fuck, I have to say I found this book to be much more applicable to the sorts of inspiring wisdom I was searching for. The first book is really about deciding how much you care about things and resolving to not do the things you don't care about. While I do need to work on that, I was hoping for something a little more applicable to solving issues like finding purpose in life and figuring out how to not be overwhelmed on the daily. Get Your Shit Together is much more useful for hammering out the ways one should set goals and work to achieve them. Are there any earth shattering revelations? No. But did it get me to make a budget for next month and seriously start to consider my lacking retirement prospects? Yeah. It's definitely something I will want to refer back to, and I expect I'll come to appreciate it more once my shit really does start getting together. Also, the chipmunk metaphor is brilliant. The audio book is read by the author, which adds a nice extra zeal as well.
