"Yvette:
Wow.  In reading this, I was blown away by your quiet truth.  I've been spending much time on self-analysis lately, and your simple truth about how we can view discipline struck a mega chord in me.  I realized, while reading, that I have always thought, "I have to choose between achieving my goals and being happy".  I never realized that I could be happy AND achieve my goals!!
I am consciously incorporating this into my goals for weight loss.  I will get back to you in a few months as the changes occur.
As for the e-book, I am floored with its fabulousness.  I have been on holiday for the past month, so my sister has been reading my copy, and my dad has given your website to a couple people.  I love that you talk so much about internal motivation and reasons for disorganisation....that is very important, in my eyes.  I've learned that before I make a change I must understand WHY I'm doing it or else the change will be temporary at best.  You put things so clearly and so simply, I keep having AHA!! moments as I read it.
So thank you for listening to your calling, going out on a limb, and creating your own business.  I sing your praises to all I meet!  And I look forward to seeing these changes -- however small -- I am making, under your suggestion, manifest in my life.
Best wishes,"

"Hi,
I am still reading the book.  I am seeing myself in a lot of what you say in the beginning.  I was always so stressed out and overwhelmed by everything I thought I had to get done, completely, in one day.  No one pressures me, but me.  I am glad to know I am not crazy, or lazy.  I have to take baby steps to do this, so I am taking my time reading.  The advice and the knowledge in the book is extremely helpful and gives me hope.  I've already found confidence in decision making.  I had no self esteem whatsoever, but I'm working on it.  I haven't quite jumped into cleaning regularly yet, but I am getting there.  I would get so overwhelmed every morning, thinking I had to clean the house top to bottom, perfectly, that I would just go back to bed and set the alarm in time for me to go pick my kids up from school.  And I hated that feeling.  I got depressed over it.  I've made a million lists thinking that would fix everything....ok so now I'm treating you like a therapist.
Thanks for the book and I would highly recommend it to anyone who is struggling like I am/was."

"Hi Yvette,
The effect of your e-Book on me has really been quite profound.  Since most of it spoke directly to me like some sage counsellor who had been sent to inspire me out of the doldrums, this should come as no surprise!  I now clearly see my domestic nightmare as a symptom of the struggling person I have become and I can't wait to get to the point where I have worked through all the stages you suggest and feel myself empowered again.
I am full of hope that all you have said in your e-book will come to fruition in my life.  I can now see why thing have gotten so out of hand and it isn't because I am a despicable sloth, I just didn't have the insights I needed to wage war on bad habits and shabby attitudes, but you have provided those now.  You can't imagine how grateful I am to you.
Best regards,"

"Hi Yvette,
I thoroughly enjoyed your book.  I tackled it by a quick read through it all, then going back to chapter one and working my way through, working out my routines, systems and room by room routine, assigning days for everything.  I have now started on my lists, planning whilst sitting in the garden in the sunshine.  I love the structured format given, to get myself organized for life without obsessing and relaxing with less than 100% perfection.
Thank you"

"Hi Yvette,
I found your website and decided after reading some tips that I had to buy your e-book.  This is a first for me, I have never yet bought an ebook online, so kudos to your site!
Obviously you touched a big chord in me: although my house isn't as bad as something they might show on TV, we (husband, 2 school age kids) live in a dusty old house with badly laid out rooms and few cupboards, and perpetual attempts at renovation.  I feel so overwhelmed by the clutter and chaos that I am either exhausted or panicky so I get nowhere except for re-arranging the dust.  I am now also allergic to house dust and have been coughing for 3 months now after a minor chest cold, exacerbated by the dust.  Did I mention dust?
I pore over your book each evening.  I haven't quite finished it yet, but I am starting t make (more (and more sensible)) lists and plans.  I feel like I can really take control and get this sorted!  There is a noticeable difference already.
Thanks again,"

"Dear Yvette,
Regarding the e-book that I purchased from you, I would like to thank you for taking the time to write it.
I have always seemed to lack the organizational skills required for things to be ticking over the way I would like.  Since reading your book and implementing your suggestions, I have seen a massive difference in my life already.  For the first time (in a long time), I feel that I have a day to get on with.  Since becoming a full time mum and homemaker I have felt out of action, as I love to go out to work.  I didn't have the skills required to make home life work until now, thanks to you.  My home looks better, feels more peaceful, I no longer fear anybody calling around and as for the pile of post that I was collecting in a haphazard manner, well its gone.  I can find things, and I haven't even finished yet.  I look forward to the next job, knowing its another step on the way to an even tidier, cleaner house.  So thank you.
I think one of the most useful parts for me was decision making.  Being a Libran, I seem to particularly struggle with this but I listened to what you said and stopped questioning my decisions and feel that I have moved on.  Also, the fact that everything is laid out step by step means that you don't actually have to make any decisions if you don't want to, they've already been made by you, which was extremely helpful.
Once again, thank you, I have been making lists, rules, plans etc for years now.  Thank goodness you seem to have it all worked out.
Yours gratefully"

"Dear Yvette, 
I wanted to thank you for your ebook, newsletters and daily tips.  I purchased the ebook in April after visiting my cousin, who has a very clean and organized home.  When I got back I felt depressed and frustrated.  My laundry was overflowing out of the closet, the dishes where stacked up in the sink on the counter and on the table.  The house was a mess and I didn't even know where to begin.   
I started scanning the Internet hoping to find a way to "get myself organized".  I found articles, suggestions and "helpful" hints. Soon I was printing things out and writing down notes only to find myself spending more time on the Internet and writing than actually accomplishing the tasks that lye ahead. The problem was everything sounded great,  but I was never motivated and getting organized still seemed unattainable. Then when I was near the point of self implosion I found your website.  When I read your home page, I kept thinking...this is me.  Everything from missing important deadlines, late fees because I hadn't opened the mail in months, never being able to stick to a budget, funky smells coming from the kitchen and bathrooms to purchasing new clothes because all of our clothes were dirty.  
We had $80 dollars in our account, but I knew I had to buy the book. Despite not having very much money I purchased it...never looking back.  
I began reading and suddenly felt a new sense of determination and focus.  For the first time in my adult life I knew I could do it.  I started small.  Taking it one step at a time.  Soon the dirty laundry pile was disappearing, the funky smells had gone away and I was actually on time to several appointments.  I have even started utilizing a calendar and keeping track of our finances.  I now have a savings...it's small, but what an accomplishment. 
One story that I want to share happened about a month after purchasing your ebook.  My husband was training for his EMT certification and we had to travel to the city where he could do his 12 hours at an ER.  When we returned home my husband and sister-in-law went to class and I went to work at cleaning out the car and washing the dirty clothes.  When they returned from class my husband informed me that he had offered a couple of students his scrubs for use at their shift.  Both he and my sister-in-law suggested that we hang up the scrubs and spray them with a fabric spray to "freshen" them up.  I informed them that the scrubs had already been washed and were folded and put away.  Anyone that knows me, knows that cleaning out the car so quickly is a miracle in and of it's self.  Both he and my sister-in-law looked at me incomplete disbelief.  They were completely blown away, which goes to show how my disorganization has effected everyone around me. It also shows how the changes I have made have wowed everyone around me. 
I still have set backs, but I am finally beginning to gain control of my laundry, my bills, my junk and more importantly my life.  Your ebook and monthly newsletters have reminded me of what my desires are and how to obtain them.  My life is slowly changing in so many wonderful ways...each day I wake up excited to see what amazing things will happen.  Even better I now have the time to enjoy them. 
Thank you so much!"

"Hi Yvette,
I was a totally disorganised disfunctional mother until I found your website.  Bought the book and life has been, on the whole, flowing more freely for myself.  Every home should have them, it makes so much sense and very practical.  I now no longer have to stress about anything.
Thanks mate,
A new improved aussie mum, with a whole new purpose in my life.  Keep the emails coming."

"I have enjoyed what I have read so far and am finding it very helpful, especially the sections on Procrastination (so easy to do!), Decision making (My nickname is Mrs Ambivalent I am told by a friend) and Motivation.  It is helping me realise that positive habits are the answer and working in small 'boxes' is also very useful.
However I felt a weight lift off my shoulders when I read what you said about tasks never finishing!  At first sight that seems negative, but it actually takes away the burden of feeling that one has failed if one does not get everything organized and decluttered by the time set!
So, many thanks for that Yvette too, and thank you for being realistic and reassuring - unlink some rather forbidding books on decluttering etc that seem to be written by Superwoman!
All good wishes and kind regards,"

"Hi Yvette,
I am on 'vacation' for the moment and have finally had some time to start reading your e-book and I think it's great.  Many times while reading it, I feel as though you must've been in my kitchen or bedroom seeing me being buried away in my clutter and frustration.  You actually have 'hit it on the head' by saying that we have to start with how we feel and how important it is to feel good about ourself.  The breakdown of your lists are really helpful and it is even helping me to think in a better order as well, if that makes any sense.  Thank you very much for sharing these tips with others.  You are an inspiration.
Sincerely,"
