1. Message of the Day
RELIEF
SCRATCH WHERE IT ITCHES.
Is there some place that is a constant annoyance to you? It may be the black hole of the basement, the trunk of the car, or a table or counter that is full of junk. Stop a minute and reflect. Where is your biggest itch (place of annoyance)? Now decide to spend fifteen minutes each day on that spot until it doesn't itch any more. Plan so your time will be used effectively. Set a timer for fifteen minutes. Go to it!
You may want to post your goals on Friends-of-the-Organizer-Lady.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Friends-of-The-Organizer-Lady/
Or find an M.A. Clutter Buddy on that forum who will cheer you through the project. However you do it, do not let that itch continue. You will feel so good when you scratch the right place and it stops. (Find more information on how to find and be a Clutter Buddy in the files of this group.)

3. Habit of the Day
Commit for just this one day.
EMPTY THE DISHWASHER as soon as possible after it is
finished washing. A dishwasher full of clean dishes causes
the sink to back up with dirty dishes. Yuck! Bad habit!
---------------------------
4. Family Reminder of the Day
Pick one of these reminders or make one of your own to share with your family each day.
In our family, we don't boss others. We focus on our own responsibilities.
In our family, we talk kindly to each other.
In our family, we try to think ahead to solve problems before they happen.
----------------------------
5. Quote of the Day
No problem can stand the assault of sustained thinking.
Voltaire
Got a problem? Spend time thinking how you can solve it.
Be creative. Do something different. It will be solved.
----------------------------
6. Question of the Day
How do you use the family reminders?
Do you remind your family verbally daily?
Do you put up signs around the house?
Do you use the reminders for yourself and change your behavior because of them?
Tell us by posting on Friends-of-The-Organizer-Lady.

7. From the Trenches
NEW HABIT (Thanks to Teresa)
My new habit is to not walk through the house empty-handed. Since my house is full of stuff that needs to be "somewhere else" (another room, laundry, trash, etc.,) I decided that whenever I needed to go from one area to another, I would
first look around and take something that belongs there, or goes someplace that is on the way. It is definitely a baby step, but I know that it has saved me some trips, and contributed to the slow but steady clean-up!
Teresa
Teresa's NEW HABIT is another way to apply....STOW AS YOU GO!

MESSIES ANONYMOUS SLOGAN
Please memorize this slogan and post it on your wall.
The secret to success is making very small, yet very consistent, changes.
Or to make it short; Baby steps, baby steps in the right direction.
Never underestimate the inevitability of gradualness.
