Do you often feel like you just can't get it together?

 

Between work, daily responsibilities, chores, and the need to actually eat a meal, it's easy to feel like your day is bursting at the seams.

For the longest time, I thought this was just the way things had to be--until I discovered that it is possible to take care of my future self 5 minutes at a time.

 

I'm Arcadia Page, and I'm a writer, artist, and chaos attractor. For a while, I hard time figuring out why certain parts of my day were so insane. Every morning before going to work was crazy, and every evening after coming back home was crazy too.

 

However, by learning how to invest little pockets of time into taking care of my trouble spots, I discovered that small steps can turn an entire day around.

 

In this book, I share my best tips for reducing daily disorder five minutes at a time. If you're someone who struggles with "getting it together," I've created this book with you in mind.

 

This book will help you:

    A couple of useful ideas, but extremely repetitive. Could have been done in 10 pages.
