For the next week I will be offering ways to create more life balance by addressing the seven areas as mentioned in the previous post.Spiritual and Physical areas of your life:For the spiritual aspect of your life, begin by thinking about what "spiritual" means to you and then follow that line of thinking. Some examples may include:Read the Bible for 15 minutes per dayRead a daily devotion or

That's the tagline of this blog. What does it mean for you? Life is a busy place and it seems that as technology speeds up, so do we. On our "hamster wheels", that is-- running and running yet staying in the same place. We are trying to keep pace with everything that we are responsible for, interested in, and planning for in the future. How do you keep up with everything? There are as many

Do you have mountains of receipts? If you’re anything like me you have receipts in your purse and car and your husband has receipts in his wallet and pockets! Most receipts that we have do not need to be kept. Some can be tossed immediately while others can be cross checked against a bank or credit card statement. Nonetheless, we need to get rid of them sooner than later!When you need to get your

I spoke to a business associate of mine today and she made an interesting remark. She said that she hates to file. When I asked her why she started to say she didn't have time, was afraid she'd never find it again, and that it wasn't a priority. But she finally admitted. She didn't like filing because she didn't know how to do it. What a revelation! What an easy thing to fix!If you can

Christmas is the day after tomorrow. I have taken the rest of the week off, after working 12 hours yesterday. I am, however, very relaxed. Everything is done, the grocery shopping, the gift shopping, the gift wrapping, the winter concerts, the parties - it's all done. As I look back on the last 30 days, I realize that I did a few things to simplify this year which have all helped me to feel so

We use recipes to cook food, GPS tools to map the routes to businesses, yet we don't have a plan for our week! The most overused excuse is "If I had more time, I would...."

As a solo-prenuer there is so much to be done, so little time..yada yada yada. If you are a business owner, you certainly know what I mean. While customer follow up is paramount, so is delegation.

You know the saying, "Can't see the forest for the trees". This is a challenge because we can get so hyper focused. We want to get organized or be more productive but we are stuck in our regular "mode" and can't see a solution. So we trudge along, just putting out fires, only dealing with the urgent. We need to look at the bigger picture and then break our tasks (or projects) into the small,

I meet many moms who ask, " How do I get my teenager to clean up their room and keep it organized?" If you could hear them, their voice is strained and there is usually a heavy sigh at the end of the question. Just like us, teenagers motivations vary and, just like us, they have a reason for where they put things. So, although I am an organizing consultant, I can only tell you what has worked in

As a small business entrepreneur, I was blogging back in 2005. Then after a somewhat diligent attempt, I dropped the project all together. NOW, however, blogging is more of a lifestyle than an obligation so I am happy to revive the old blog in an effort to change the world... Lofty goal, I know, I just want the world to purge, recycle, and get organized! In the era of materialism and consumerism,

Many of my friends dread their children's homework more than the child does! I often hear things like "I practically have to stand over him", "She does the work but doesn't turn it in", "He just can't stay still and do the homework". Granted, some of these issues may be due to things like ADD or ADHD but setting up a proper homework environment certainly can't help but get the homework off to a

In most cases, the bathroom is the smallest room in the house yet it has almost as much activity as the family room and the kitchen. Usually, storage space is needed to stock supplies and a variety of necessities for each family member. Here are four tips to help maximize and organize your bathroom.1. Think vertically - many showers have the shower caddy that hangs on the wall or fromthe shower

When it comes to organizing your child’s room, I can not stress the importance of having the child on board. If you are going to organize their room, they need to know about it and they need to be there! Many times I have had parents tell me that the child’s room was such a disaster that they just went in, cleaned it up, and totally organized it. Then within a week the room looks like it was

I have worked with many clients who actually know about storage, organizing by task, grouping by type, and even those who recognize the importance of labels and filing. These same people still seek me out with organizing questions and projects. Why? Because they have an overabundance of things!!! It used to be that the children of the depression era, as grown adults, would keep large amounts

It seems that every six months or so I have to do a "kitchen checkup". As there is more than one person helping in the kitchen, preparing meals, and unloading the dishwasher, things can become unorganized over time. Because things don't always end up back where they belong I use the "SOUP" method to reorganize my kitchen.S - set up a work space. Use the dining table or set up a card table to

Keeping your financial paperwork organized will help with your budget and your peace of mind! First, it is important to have a central location for your monthly financial papers. This doesn't always have to be at a desk, it can be created in the kitchen, it can be portable. The key is that it is accessible and convenient.I like to recommend that my customers create a bill paying center. This can

You've come home from a long day at work and now you have to think about dinner... You don't know what is in the freezer or the kitchen cabinets. Or you just went shopping yesterday and now you have to put a meal together and you forgot a particular ingredient. If this sounds familiar, then maybe try menu planning. Planning in advance what to have for dinner can actually alleviate some of your

Well, I haven't posted in a few days (make that over a week now). I have just had carpul tunnel release surgery on my left hand. Thank goodness I'm right handed, right? Wrong! I need this left hand to type on the computer and do all the organizing that I do! If you could see how many mistakes I'm making just typing this, you... well you wouldn't be able to read it!

Now those of you who prefer spontaneity, just keep reading. You get up in the morning and go to work or school and at some point during the day you even eat a meal or two. These are routines that everyone does as a part of
