Ready to be sorted
Take advantage of those rainy days and pick one project you would like to start and finish. It’s important that when you finish, you reward yourself for getting it done.*
Remember the Outside In Organizer and Makeovers approach:
1. Sort – put all discards into recycle, shred immediately.
2. Keep – is it something that requires action? If so, put it into your tickler system so that it is scheduled. If it is something that you need to save, Can it be scanned? **
3. Reference – is it informational, only? If you discard it can you find it on the internet? If so, discard it.
*TIP #1: Time who long it takes you to complete the task. This will give you an idea of how to schedule future projects.
**TIP #2: Remember that your task is to sort, not to set up a new file system. Make that a separate project so you get this one completed. You will be more productive.
