I haven't read this book so grain of salt, but why change what is working for you? When I read self-help books or blogs (orgjunkie is a fav) I take what is useful to me and leave the rest.
eta: wow, this book is popular, I'm 47 on the wait list!
eta: up to 20 on the wait list as of 3/31!
eta: finally able to pick up on 4/17. As I entered the library I saw three copies sitting on their "lucky day" (popular books that aren't reservable, check out for 1 week with 1 one-week renewal). figures. haven't started yet.
