3. Time Management from the Inside Out: The Foolproof System for Taking Control of

realities" (new baby, new job); and "psychological obstacles" (perfectionism). Instead
of trying to change people's natural behaviors and preferences, she encourages them
to expand upon whatever is working already, no matter how overwhelmed they may feel.
Morgenstern's simple self help book presents a superb, sound program for creating
a life that nutures you and makes you feel good. 2004, Owl Books; 2nd edition
