Is everyone pumped up for a new year? We have a new president in place now and hope for a better year to come for everyone. Are you ready to make the changes in your home or office to make it a better, more productive and organized year?
Don’t be overwhelmed by the big picture of what needs to be accomplished. Try a technique that professional organizer and author of Conquering Chronic Disorganization, Judith Kolberg, sometimes uses with her clients when they are feeling like the task is too daunting to attempt. She suggests that you look through a paper towel tube like a telescope so the field of vision is narrowed and you only see a small area. Look around the entire room like this and then pick the area in which you want to begin. If you continue to view the room in smaller zones you can feel more successful as you complete each area.
Every little bit you tackle is an improvement and you can consider it progress!
