Spring Into Summer with These Organizing Tips
Organizing Your Home:
Doesn’t the phrase “Spring Cleaning” really represent an opportunity many of us take to not only clean, but to organize?
A lot of people spend time moving boxes or piles of items from one place to another within their homes. As long as you need to find a home for it or pick it up so you can clean under it, why not take a closer look through that pile or box? You may actually be able to whittle it down to a smaller pile that occupies much less space. Yes, this may require a little extra time, however, the long term benefits of obtaining a more organized living space is well worth it.
Organizing Your Office:
What does your office, and how well it’s organized, have to do with your pending vacation? Well, ask yourself this… “how often am I able to take a vacation without being interrupted by a phone call from my boss, assistant, or coworker?” If it has happened even once, you may be able to avoid future phone calls by taking a few additional steps to organize your office before you leave.
It’s a wonderful feeling to have a filing system that works for you… everything in it’s place, where you need it, when you need it. Keep in mind that whomever is going to be your back-up while your on vacation may not think like you (shocking, isn’t it?). Take a few minutes to show that person around your office and explain your filing system. You may even want to go one step further and leave behind some written instructions or a map to help them find their way.
