Tips to Stay Organized
- If it takes less than five minutes, AND it’s important to you, then do it right away.
- Put systems in place to stay organized so you can free your mind for other things.
- Find a place for everything and always put it there -- so you always know where to find everything.
- Don’t trust your memory. Use calendars and lists so you can trust in them to keep you organized.
- Streamline and sync calendars and schedules so everyone involved can see them.
- Ensure that you have clear spaces, physically and in your time, so you have space to be calm and think creatively.
- Know your priorities and let that lead your schedules. Start with the thing that is most important - what would disappoint you if it didn’t happen?
- Helicopter up to make sure your actual life aligns with your priorities. Do this quarterly, at least.
- Pay someone else to do things that you CAN do, but should spend time doing other things instead.
- Simplify things in your life. Let things go -- physical items and even items that consume your time.
Takeaways
Maria - Use the tools in front of you, technology and otherwise, to support your organization goals.
Kelly - Don’t trust your memory. Use the scheduling and organization tools at your disposal to improve your chance for success.
