The Three Big Questions For A Frantic Family: A Leadership Fable About Restoring Sanity To The Most Important Organization In Your Life (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
Surprisingly, I enjoyed the fable part the most. Then, I remembered that I tend to absorb lessons via story more so than a list of instructions (like a business book). I can see why Lencioni uses fables. (I mean, if Jesus taught in parables, it makes sense, right?)Like all self-help books, though the information is useful, without my actual implementation, it is dead and useless. I do think this will be more useful to me as my kids get older and do more things. It would definitely be a benefit to me now, however, I may be too lazy. LOL.However, it does bring up important issues - especially this day and age when we have the means and ability to sign up our children for a multitude of activities. I look forward to forcing my husband to read some of it. :D This is the second book I have read by this author. He gives practical advice through a fable. That makes his points much easier to understand and more enjoyable to learn. This book is not just for frantic families, but for any family that wants to take hold of their lives and not just float through life taking what comes. It all sounds great in the book, and I really feel like his methods will work. I guess the question is am I willing to put forth the effort into the most important part of my life? It is never too late!

Loving it on CD, but I was too "frantic" and I had to return to the library before finishing.
