Organizing Tip #10 - Handle It Only Once!!

Odette Pollar wrote "Commit yourself to making decisions now about what to do with each piece of paper. Handle paper only once. Ask yourself, "Do I really need it?" If so, file the document at once in the broadcast category to which it refers."

Wow!! Wouldn't this save me a ton of time? As I have mentioned earlier, paperwork is a huge problem for me. I have decided to make more of a commit to only handle my paperwork once!! This will definitely be a huge challenge for me!! BUT....I have made up my mind to get organized once and for all.....

Organizing Tip #9 - Delete, Delete, Delete....

Today's organizing tip isn't so much for your house as your inbox!! Take a few minutes today and clean out your inbox. For some of us this would take more than a few minutes, but don't worry.... even if you are like me and have tons of e-mails just start by taking 5 minutes today and delete e-mails you don't need or want....
Today I received an important e-mail and usually I find that I don't even see these type of e-mails until it is too late for the offer or issue the e-mail is about....Trust me..when we declutter we can be more productive!!

Organizing Tip #8 - Pack it up!!

Paperwork is an issue I constantly have trouble with...It seems to multiply overnight... My husband loves for things to be organized; however, I can't stand the pile of papers on his dresser. They just look so messy! (Trust me I am the messy one in our family..not him!!) Today I am putting them in a decorative photo I got at Michael's last week. You could use a shoe box or anything you have that is a container. This way when he gets time  to look through them & his dresser will still be neat and tidy until then!!

Since it is a decorative box it also adds something to our room decor!!
