First, the author describes several schools of thought on how the brain functions--right brain/left brain, horizontal vs. vertical thinking, and how stress effects your memory. She then discusses values and goals, which leads into time management--calendars, daily planners and a master list. Learn about time management details and problems, then move on to organizing your work environment. You'll discover how to draw on the strengths from those who are a little more organized, and how to focus on what your priorities and goals really are so you can apply them to your daily life. Stay organized and manage your time better, using skills that work with your creative nature, not against it
