I'm a SAHM who does less than 10 hours of paid work per week. But I am horrible about time management and really want to do better, especially since I want to move back to full-time work in the future.

I love the idea of creating a time map for the 168 hours in a week (she calls it a "mosaic" with activities logged in half-hour intervals). Once we analyze how we actually spend our time, we can start making decisions & changes. It sounds like most time-mappers are surprised to see that their mosaics include less work, more sleep, and more leisure time than they assumed. I haven't read her other book (168 hours), but I assume this idea is in there too.

One talking point I found intriguing was that the average FT working mom works 35 hours a week. The average woman in her study (earning $100K+ a year) worked 44 hours per week. So they work 9 more hours but make 3x more money. She reports some women being scared away from professions that supposedly require 60-80 hour work weeks. But not only do the people in those professions not actually work those hours (people who say they work 75 hours a week actually work 50), but their jobs may be a lot more flexible when it comes to scheduling around family stuff.
