This Weeks Focus – Jan 21 – 27, 2008



backtobasics 1 This Weeks Focus   Jan 21   27, 2008

OK before this week’s mission, here’s a quick re-cap.

First, we need to establish routines – the key to managing everything. Then we need to de-clutter – you can’t organize clutter

Once those first two steps are done (or in progress – remember, this is a work-in-progress) it’s time to organize!

Organizing is a project, so you need to break it down into manageable steps. First you need to list the areas of your home that you need to organize. Yes, write these down so you know where to focus your energy. Next, figure time into your routine to dedicate to organizing an area of your home. Choose one area per week and make the time to do it. In a few weeks, you’ll find your home organized.

This week’s mission is to make your list of areas to organize and to make time in your routines to do it. Tomorrow I’ll give you the basic steps to organizing, but you can’t get started until you make the time.
