1. Message of the Day
KEEP ON COURSE
Don't stop just because you drift away from your organizational path or falter
badly. Airliners and space crafts are off course more than they are on. The secret
is to do what pilots and astronauts do; make an adjustment when you realize you are
off course. Don't use energy worrying about it. Just get back on course and keep
heading for your destination.

2. Did You Know?
We have two resources available to encourage you in this life journey:

3. Habit of the Day
Commit for just this one day.

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 pay attention to maintaining beauty.

5. Quote of the Day
Alone we can do so little.
Together we can do so much.
Helen Keller
-----------------------------
6. Question of the Day
Break out of the envelope of thinking. Do not try to do it so much on your own.
Are you overlooking sources of outside help? The question of the day is, Who
MIGHT you consider to get to help who you have not asked before? It may be
family, friends, or someone you hire. Let us know.

7. From the Trenches
SMALL STEPS
Sandra Felton (The Organizer Lady® & host of our site) says that we Messies
are not a lazy bunch. We give it a lot of effort. What tends to be the
problem is that we are not focused the right way. There are baby steps that
each of us can take to get us going in the right direction. Friends-of-
the-Organizer-Lady online group has some good suggestions as well and Sandra
Felton's books Organizing Your Day, Messie No More (now titled Organizing for
Life) or any one of the others she has written can help.
It has been by baby steps that I have gotten where I am today. It is far from
what I want, but far from what it was as well! Accomplishment by those small
steps that changed habits.
(Thanks to Barbara)

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.

Never underestimate the inevitability of gradualness.
