#TuesdayTip – Getting Organized

One of the things I’ve been busy doing besides writing is getting organized for my upcoming move. During that process I’ve discovered that my being disorganized created a lot of extra stuff. I mean how much white cardstock, laser gloss paper, and/or Sharpies does a girl need? Seriously. With that in mind, I’ve established set places for each thing and I’ve also eliminated clutter by downsizing anything that I haven’t used in the last six months. That’s really helped cut down on so much stuff that was taking up space in my life and which was no longer useful. So here are my tips based on my recent experiences:

    1. A place for everything and everything in its place.
    2. If you haven’t used it in the last six months, toss it.
    3. If you can’t imagine living without it, toss it.
    4. There is such a thing as too much of a good thing.
    5. It is better to give to others than to keep. Donate anything that someone else can use.

Hope those tips help you!
