Here is what people are saying about the Margin: Restoring Emotional, Physical, Financial, and Time Reserves to Overloaded Lives
4 Star Rating  "Extremely helpful diagnosis (though somewhat overwhelming solution)..."2009-11-09
- Reviewed By chadoberholtzer
I first encountered this book almost about eight years ago and was amazed to read Dr. Swenson's diagnosis of a problem that so many of us experience every day. Our collective and often subconscious obsession with busier and bigger and faster and more is leading us down an overloaded and tragic path towards personal and cultural crisis, and we see the fall-out of this pattern all the time. Though many of us are aware that something is horribly wrong, Swenson articulates the problem very well, and his suggestion that we need to create and fanatically maintain margin in our emotional, physical, and financial worlds is extremely compelling.

My critique of the book is two-fold. First, I felt like some of his points were rather repetitive. Second, and more frustrating, I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of suggested solutions to Swenson's accurately diagnosed problems. As he offered suggestions for carving out margin in various areas of our lives, he offered as many as 17 solutions to a particular problem. Though the specific solutions were fine, there were simply too many of them. Anyone trying to implement his prescriptions for the cure of overload would probably have less margin in their lives!!

Despite my disappointment with his rather overwhelming conclusions, I am most grateful for Swenson's critique of the lifestyle that has become normative in 21st-century America. He has put words to things that I have been feeling for years and provided a more specific context to understand why my life at least occasionally feels overwhelming and unmanageable. Though I only have the margin to pursue a handful of his solutions, he has much to offer. For anyone who thinks they might be too busy, exhausted, financially stretched, and generally overloaded, "Margin" is a great place to start to understand the problem and begin to take some steps to fix it.
 
3 Star Rating  "An excellent concept that deserves better execution"2009-09-07
- Reviewed By 939410
I dont want to play contrarian to vote against the majority of 5 star reviews here. However, as a christian self help book lover, I am obliged to comment that the author had spent too many words (1/3 of the book) to describe the importance of having a margin and too few passages on the solutions for various issues. Furthermore, the author could have related more to God/Bible as the final resort. With limited time and money, I would suggest "Joyce Meyer's 21 ways to finding peace and happiness" and "God's answers to life's difficult questions by Rick Warren" as better alternatives.

An excellent discussion of our humanity and whether or not we're being realistic about our own capabilities. Just how much can you really do in one day?
 
1 Star Rating  "Recycled platitudes disappoint"2009-05-21
- Reviewed By User: A23Q2HIPFZJERI
I was drawn into purchasing this book through the hyperbolic five star reviews of others. I can only wonder if they are the author's friends, or better yet, "where's the beef?" The existing reviews talk about how life changing the book is but are slim on content.

I'll comment here about Section 2, regarded as the most useful part of the book - the part where we're told how to get margin back in our life. The areas where we need margin are categorized as emotional, physical, financial, time and so on. To restore emotional margin, the author suggests getting a pet, having hope, building relationships, and growing in faith, hope and love, among other things. Nothing earth shattering here; the same can be found on any self-help website. To restore financial margin, one must live below their means. A revelation! To restore physical margin, eat well, exercise often, and try to get sound sleep.

Are you getting the idea yet? This book is full of recycled platitudes - homespun wisdom which has evidently fallen into disuse, because it takes works like this to remind us "of what really matters in life." I have more confidence in people than the author: I happen to believe that the vast majority of people realize that if they don't have enough time in the day to do things, they are quite capable of turning off the television and getting the things done which need done. They certainly doesn't need to drop the coinage on this book to realize that is the cure.

Sorry 5 star reviewers, I guess I didn't need the Kool-Aid. I was raised with enough common sense to know all this stuff already. I'm pretty disappointed with the total lack of anything novel in this book. I haven't found anything my grandmother probably hasn't told me somewhere along in life.

 
5 Star Rating  "Very practical"2009-03-17
- Reviewed By dmoore12
Our family doctor recommended this book when my husband was facing tremendous stress. It's full of very practical things to do that actually help. My husband put his watch away immediately, among other things. He was glad he read it. Just about saved his sanity. He knew he was stressed, but he didn't realize what it was doing to him till he read Margin. I'm so thankful he got it.
 
3 Star Rating  "Margin - good but not what I was looking for"2008-12-20
- Reviewed By User: A12WP35NV52CVI
Well thought out analysis and discussion, easy to read. I was looking for something with more Biblical material in it so the book didn't suit my needs.
