What others are saying about Ruth

What others are saying about Marketing & Productivity Consultant, Lifestyle Coach, Public Speaker, Spokesperson and Author

Coaching:
Dear Ruth,

This is a long overdue thank you for the insightful, practical and effective tools you've given me to enhance my loan business and my life. The time blocking and time-utilization ideas have been incredible. In my twenty-plus years of business, I have always felt guilty for not being a morning person. Not any more! You have a gift for identifying and working with strengths and weaknesses that is so positive. I've felt understood and encouraged working with you and it's done wonders for my self-esteem and confidence--not to mention my business! Now I use my best time for my most productive tasks, and it has opened up more time and more business than I could have imagined. I apologize for the delay in telling you how much I appreciate your help, but I've been buried in business as a result of the many ideas you helped me put into place. A happy problem to be sure!

Warmest regards,

Dottie Jakobsen
Home Mortgage Consultant

Dear Ruth,

I can say without equivocation that the knowledge I've gained working with you has increased my productivity, while freeing up time, I never realized I had, for planning new projects.  I think what impresses me most about your coaching program is its innate simplicity, allowing a busy professional to garner new organizational skills while actually gaining time and productivity, not losing it.  I'm hooked!  And I can assure you that I will be using your simple tools from now on.  I only wish I'd found you ten years ago.

Regards,
Jerry Lee

This letter is to thank you for the time you spent in making me realize the importance of making the time to take care of myself so that I can be a better person, wife and mother. I feel empowered with this new perspective and once again want to thank you, on behalf of myself and my family, for opening my eyes and helping me realize that it is not additional time that we all need, but rather the ability to prioritize, organize and make efficient use of the time we already have.” Thank you!!!

“Ruth Klein has been a speaker at several of our business conferences over the past five years. Her topics on time management and motivation have always been a hit with our attendees – mostly business owners. I would describe her presentations as “energetic, entertaining and enlightening.” I recommend her to anyone but believe her insights are “a must for small business owners.”

"Whew! Help is Here for the Overstressed, Overworked! At last, a practical, how-to book for the overstressed, overworked office worker, middle manager, telecommuterand the increasing numbers of self-employed among us. Fifty hour work weeks with no time for vacations may become the status quo, but Ruth Klein's book (Time Management Secrets for Working Women) shows us how to organize, prioritize and take back control of our careers and home life by eliminatng stress and finding more hours for us in our stressful work week. I was surprised when reading this book to discover how I had been sabotaging myself with certain behaviors that were making me take longer to get the job done. Bravo, Ruth, Bravo!

Sharon Ramsey, Telecommuter, San Diego, California

"Insightful wisdom to the art of time management. With love in her heart and a passion for living, author and coach Ruth Klein brings insightful wisdoom to the art of time management and productivity throughout her book, Time Management Secrets for Working Women: Getting Organized to Get the Most Out of Each Day. I found Ruth's book to be a text, a tool, a  manual and a guide. It's all well and good for men and women to perceive that they each have their specific objectivesin a twenty-four hour day. However, both can find a unifying thread in Klein's book. I especially liked how she shows how to make the best of each day and then feel a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment at its end. Using her experience in both marketing and time management, a contagious positive energy and a keen sense of humor, Kleiin shares basic techniques, numerous anecdotes and exercises to help you achieve your goals. Her insights are as keen as lightning ona beautiful dawn."

Jethro Singer, Commercial Photographer

"Brisk advice (Time Management Secrets for Working Women) for saving time and restoring balance. Many working women awake to the figurative sound of a starter pistol and race against the clock until they lie down to sleep at night. Author Ruth Klein understands the unique challenges that time management presents to working women. The demands of homek, family and work always compete for their attention. She divides women into three "Personal Motivational Lifestyle" categories and explains that a woman will feel unbalanced and unfulfilled if her time investment is out of sync with her lifestyle. She encourages women to nurture a clear understanding of their own personalities so their time use aligns with their values and beliefs. Klein offers many useful, practical time-saving tips, strategies and techniques for the home and workplace ... We believe Klein can help you organize your time. Just give her a minute."

Rolf Dobelli, Luzern, Switzerland
