This is an important book. It's an eye-opener for those (including me) who do not listen to the signals of stress and who come eventually (or in my case frequently) in trouble because they either have a huge workload, or have tasks that are too difficult for them, and besides try to fill every free minute with personal activities and deadlines.I have learned from this book (not that I didn't know already :), but now and then you need someone or something to tell you that things are not going into the right direction. That you're way out of you're work-life balance and that you're onlywalking away further from the goal you are trying to accomplish.I did read new things about the consequences of stress, all of which I could relate to in connection with my own experiences. Two chapters that are especially interesting to me are "Time Management" and "Relaxing the mind".The chapter about relaxing the mind doesn't only help to reduce stress but also to focus the mind, which was very useful in getting my priorities straight again.Thanks James, looking forward to your next work.
