I just finished a book that will help every family that I personally know. One of my favorite business/leadership authors, Patrick Lencioni, has written a book for families in which he applies organizational principles to the family. The book is titled "The 3 Big Questions for a Frantic Family: A Leadership Fable about Restoring Sanity to the Most Important Organization in Your Life." Go to amazon.com to read more about it.
The book is written as a story, so it is easy to read (I read it one sitting). The strategies and principles in it will help bring clarity, focus, control and less stress to every family. Mitzi is reading it now, then we will sit down together and implement this plan. I'll let you know later how we're doing.
Seriously, if you feel that your family life is frantic, stressful, and out-of-control, you need to read this book. When you do, I'd love to hear what you think about it. If you're in my Life Group and reading this, what do you think about going through this together as a group?

OK Rusty---that's a strong recommendation. I've ordered it and it's on the way.
The title alone is enough to make me want to read it. I would LOVE to discuss this as a life group if everyone else is on board. Along with Matt I have already ordered my copy!
Ditto. Count us in.
Which of his other books would you recommend? I see that he has several others.
That sounds like a wonderful book. I don't have small children anymore, but my household is in such chaos, you'd think I did. Both my daughter and my brother have moved into my home, along with their possessions. This includes furniture, vehicles, etc. I love having both of them here, but will I even live long enough to be organized again?
