Getting Organized


Yikes, the end of the calendar year is near. Now is the time to make those calls, finish that project and prepare for the coming year. As 2016 closes in it is a time to reflect where you have been but more importantly where you want to go! I find the time between Christmas and New Year ’s Day is usually unscheduled time as folks are either returning un-wanted items, travelling or just plain taking some time for themselves. Start with the clutter not only on your work spaces, but your phones and tablets as well. If you have not touched that hand out you got at a seminar in April, you do not need it. It is liberating to free yourself from clutter that accumulates over the year. You might consider the acronym of TRAF when something comes across your domain. TRAF stands for TOSS, REFER, ACT, and FILE. This works and avoids the buildup of clutter. Get out your 2016 calendar and look over the months and fill in events in your life that are already scheduled, birthdays, travel and other life events. Planning is important and by using a calendar you get the big picture and that can assist in your organization. Avoid procrastination, you know you have a major project coming, why not start working on it now? Get cracking on your plan as time does not wait. Make 2016 your best year ever! To YOUR Success!
