Janelle (nellebutterfly) Hello,

Can someone add a profile for this book for me, please?

TITLE: Taming the To-Do List

AUTHOR: Glynnis Whitwer

ISBN: 978-0-8007-2672-0

PUBLISHER: Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group

PUBLICATION DATE: August 18, 2015

FORMAT: trade paper

DESCRIPTION:
Ever just wish the world would stop for a day so you could catch up?

No matter how much we accomplish in a day, we nearly always feel a little guilt over what we didn’t do. But do we really have more to do than the women who came before us? Maybe not.

In Taming the To-Do List, Glynnis Whitwer exposes a seismic shift in society: from one in which most of us were proactive to one in which we carry the burden of having to respond—to every email, text, tweet, and message we receive. This creates a cycle where everyone else sets the priorities for our days rather than us directing our own lives. The result? We procrastinate, putting off the important stuff for later while we tend to the “urgent” stuff right now.

It’s time to take back your schedule! Ready to tame that to-do list? This book shows you how.

“Wow! I never knew how much procrastination costs us and how rich the rewards can be when we overcome it. My friend Glynnis nailed it!”—Lysa TerKeurst, New York Times bestselling author of The Best Yes and president of Proverbs 31 Ministries
 
“Glynnis Whitwer will empower you to take that stress-inducing task list from ‘to-do’ to ‘Hey look! It’s done!’”—Karen Ehman, Proverbs 31 national speaker and New York Times bestselling author of Keep It Shut
 
“Refreshingly real and extremely practical. A must-read!”—Ruth Schwenk, author, speaker, and creator of TheBetterMom.com
 
“Live the life that you truly love rather than your life living you. Glynnis Whitwer shows you how in her book Taming the To-Do List!”—Tamara Lowe, New York Times bestselling author and founder of ChristianExperts.com

I deleted the praise quotes from the description, as it is supposed to be neutral.

Janelle (nellebutterfly) Ah! Thank you, I had forgotten about that. I will remember in the future to just stop at the end of the description. I get a little copy happy ...

Thanks!!
