Rightsizing Your Life: Simplifying Your Surroundings While Keeping What Matters Most

It's geared towards the baby boomer set, and talks a lot about post-retired life, but I found a lot of value in the 'quizes' and exercises.

I recommend this book to anyone who as already put some effort into red I'm always looking to reduce my stuff. Jul 21, Darby rated it it was ok Shelves: This was not the book I was wanting.

From the description I read on the back, I thought it was a book on organizing your home. But this book is geared towards baby-boomers or those about to retire -- moving into smaller retirement homes and need to downsize their lives. Of course there are some good tips that are universal - but the focus is more for those retiring and I am not at that point in my life yet.

The book is geared towards those who are ready to retire and figure out how to downsize their lives. Some of the principles are universal but most of it just doesn't apply to my life stage. Jan 13, Eric Bell rated it it was ok.

This book wasn't great. It's targeted for mid-life people getting ready to notably change their location and or situation in life. It looks at what you should do to downsize your home, pursue your hobbies, and move past emotional issues tied to objects in your home. Feb 27, Alayne added it Shelves: This book was not what I thought it was going to be. It's geared toward people over 50 who are retiring or making some sort of late life change.

Someday I'll probably want to read it! Mar 08, Robin rated it it was ok. Don't read unless you are at baby boomer stage of life.
