              Organizing Tips Keep a bag or bin with handles in your car. It makes it easier to transport items back and forth between you home and car. Take ten minutes at the end of each day to pick up
clutter in
your home and office. You'll feel less frustrated the
next morning. |
Monthly Organizing Motivators 1. Your Home. The holiday rush is over. Consider rearranging the furniture in your home to afford greater organizing options where you need them. Move an armoire to the family room or a bookcase to the playroom. Think "concealed storage." 2. Your Family. Help your family get organized this month. Buy a large wipe-off calendar and color-code per person. Read "Your Complete Guide to Organized Parenting" for over 100 pages of tips, ideas and instructions. 3. Your Health. Call your doctor today and make an appointment for a complete physical. Make sure you celebrate many more new years. 4. Your Stuff. The beginning of a new year is the perfect time to declutter and organized your life. Start with one small area, complete it before moving on, and give yourself a reward upon organizing each area.

5. Your Money. A budget doesn't have to be scary.
Simply make two columns: incoming and outgoing. Do what
needs to be done until incoming exceeds outgoing. See a credit
counselor and financial planner for help.
6. Your Job. What is your dream job? Set a goal to have that job in one year, five years, 15 years -- the time frame isn't important. What is important, is that you have a goal, write down the steps needed to accomplish that goal, and constantly work toward the goal.
7. The Holidays. Buy plastic containers on sale this month for all your holidays decorations. Store holiday dishes and cookbooks with the decorations. Label well.
