Review by: Libby Gill on Feb. 13, 2012 :
As a business coach, I work with successful people who often have so many ideas they can barely keep on top of them. The key for them - and all of us - is focus. In powerful (yet simple) language, Mind Savvy addresses these challenges and gives great tips and tools for dealing with them. LoCicero provides excellent guidance for clearing the clutter out of our brains so we can be more productive and have more peace of mind! I recommend it highly!!
