It's all about organizing

The road to organization is sometimes a long one, especially if you want to start organizing an area that has been growing and spreading for a while!



If you can start at the beginning, by that I mean, before things get out of hand, get organized from the get go. The sooner you start, the less time you spend later looking for things or organizing a bigger mess.



For example: If you start a new business and want an organized and efficient office, start with :

- getting help from a friend/family member

- read ebooks/books on organizing

- visit websites

- call a professional organizer


If you're way past the beginning, find a friend or family member that already has an organized office or call a professional organizer. Buy containers, files, label maker, drawer dividers and designate an area to store office supplies.


Clearing the clutter and irrelevant items is a good start. This creates space and you might even find something you've been looking for and for one of my clients, that was a large bag full of forgotten money!
