My thoughts
But does it deliver?
Well, the short answer is oui!
I love Sarah Knight’s style. She knows what she means and she says it! If you are a bit precious and you don’t like swear words, then this book is not for you!

What I liked About It
The Get Your Sh*t Together Journal By Sarah Knight is a cool book for anyone who wants to get some changes in their life. I am not going to spoil it for you here, but c’estĀ pretty simple!
Write down what you want, what stops you from getting it and work at it.
It is all about setting yourself some achievable goals. Step by step, little by little. The key idƩe in here? Being consistent!
Something I am not really good at but Sarah Knight’s book really made me think of what is stopping me every time.
It’s all about beingĀ focused!
And the best? When you do well, you are allowed to have a little treat! Because otherwise, life would be too miserable!
This girl knows what she is talking about!
Get Your Sh*t Together Journal Review – Le verdict
I really enjoyed this book while on holidays. Easy and fun to read, the author’s ideas might be simple, yet they are things we constantly ignore and therefore we feel like failures.
Sarah Knight’s style is quirky and really honest. She tells you the truth you never wanted to acknowledge and explains how to face it to feel successful again.
More importantly, I love the exercises included in this as it gives you time to pause, think and write it down. So that if one day you get off the golden path, you can simply reopen it, reread your notes and get the motivation going!
Because being a hustler has never been so good! C’est bon, c’est girlie! The book you need to read this Summer so that you are ready to be a champion again! And let me tell you, it feels pretty awesome to be in charge of your destiny, right?!

I struggle to get focused so then I procrastinate.
food
My weakness is motivation! I have absolutely none and I wish I did!
my weakness is my impatience
Meal planning – I am in a house full of fussy eaters. Everyone eats something different. Would be nice to sort something out where we can all eat relatively the same thing at the same time without them getting bored or malnourished. Which trust me, will be a challenge but hoping it will save us some money and I’ll have to spend less time in the kitchen x
telling myself a glass of wine will make me more productive when it does the opposite.
Procrastinating is my downfall
I’m a perfectionist and nothing is ever right for me: that’s my weakness
Putting things off to the last minute then berating myself for leaving it !
Absolutely no motivation to get anything done, it drives me insane!
Motivation is my main weakness! I find it hard to focus on what I need to do, Iāll find other unimportant things to do instead?
I am a bit lazy !
procrastinating!
Procrastinating on facebook.
Great tips
Stress and procrastination!
Lack of motivation!
My weakness is my eating disorder – I know what I need to do but it often gets in the way of my progress!
Having enough time to do everything I need to do!
I have no get up and go! Really annoys me but I can’t seem to change!
Procrastinating, not because I don’t feel motivated to do something but because i’m scared that it will go wrong and i’d rather push the failure back than face it and lose my motivation
My organisation skills could be better
My weakness is motivation and believing in myself that I can do things.

I’m OK once I’ve got going, but my get up and go appears to have got up and gone!
I’ve been really annoyed at myself this week actually because I have lots to do and no motivation to start. I need help!

My weakness is being sidetracked
not believing in myself
I’ve been falling asleep sitting up for months once again, so things get put to one side and start piling up…Energy levels are low thanks to M.E. as it is and I’m guilty of procrastination too, however, I do give myself a hearty telling off now and again!
I’m need motivation and I’m not assertive enough, bury my head in the sand
My weakness is being easily distracted. When I’m working on my laptop, my mind easily wanders and I’ll start looking up YouTube videos, replying to emails, flicking through social media. It’s a curse!
Lack of self confidence and self esteem in my own ability.
Putting things off until tomorrow, which of course never comes!

Time and not being able to concentrate and finish one task at a time. I tend to do everything at once and then get stressed when I canāt comp,eye everything at the same time. This book sounds like just what I need. Thanks for the chance.
Procrastination! It’s my worst enemy. I really need to learn to fix it. My sleeping pattern is bad too and has been since my teens. That doesn’t help.
It works for a few days then Iām back in my same habit of NOT having my shit together in every way possible
I need this in my life š
No motivation sometimes.
Procrastination
I suffer from an anxiety disorder so it’s hard to get going and keep motivated to do thing s I really have to talk to myself and just get on and do the best I can but it can be vicious circle.
Procrastination and lack of motivation
Mine has to be saying no when I really should. I really need to learn to say no more often when I don’t want to do something as I end up stressing out something chronic trying to do too much to the point of making myslef ill.
Laziness and procrastination
Overplanning… I plan and plan and plan…but never have enough time to carry out the plan
For years I have wanted to be a writer but I procrastinate too much. I get so excited about writing that the excitement about writing overtakes the ability to write so I end up not having the time to write
Procrastination is definitely my weakness and if I can get my sh*t together – who knows what I can achieve!!
A lack of self confidence and self esteem
I constantly put things off rather than getting stuff done
It has to be my kids, they distract me and we end up playing!
