1. Message of the Day
SOW THE ACTION! REAP THE RESULT!
You choose the action and the result happens automatically.
Look around. What you see is the result of actions you have chosen to
do some time in the past. Every piece of paper, every pile of clutter,
every item of clothing out of place, and every other disorganized area
of the house (and office) is the result of choices made one moment after
another in the past. Every clean surface, everything that is in its place,
every beautiful spot follows the same pattern.
This is both bad news and good news. It is amazing the difference small,
incremental habits make---FOR BOTH CLUTTER AND NEATNESS.
The message is clear and simple.
Act your way out of disorder.
Clutter will fall away like magic.

3. Habit of the Day
LOOK BACK, REALLY LOOK BACK!
When you finish an area or room, go to the door, turn around, and focus on seeing
what you have done.
Make yourself tune in visually.
Hint: Once the room is ready, take and post a snapshot in the room to show how it
should be maintained. Maybe even post it at the door. Good for reminding kids what
you want.

6. Question of the Day
Is there anything, habit, or idea that you are totally unwilling to give up at this
time? You want to change badly. But not at the expense of this one thing. If there
were such a thing in your life, what would it be? Identifying it clearly is
important for improvement.

HANDLING PAPER
Why not use filing cabinets? They're not very expensive. Wal-Mart, and lots of other
places, sell them. For me, they're a good investment in saved time and energy, and
peace of mind. I have a big problem with papers. The main one is that I don't like
to file. :) So, I try to make it as easy as possible. Here are a few ideas that are
working for me.
I have a 2 drawer next to the computer, and 2 more in a spare bedroom closet.
The first file in the top drawer is for receipts. I can just drop them straight into
the file folder, and since it's so accessible, I actually do it. So if I need to return
something, the receipt is easy to find. (Which beats my previous system of turning the
house upside down, searching for receipts.
The second file is local restaurant menus. When I go into town, I can just pull out a
menu, call ahead, and save time by picking up food that's ready to go. The file cabinet
is right next to the phone, so it's easy to just drop the menu right back into the file.
Financial information--The budget/bills, current living expenses, bank statements,
credit card information, savings and debt, insurance, etc., is next, in the top drawer,
so that it's easy to get to. Automobile is behind that, then things are alphabetized
from there.
At the end of the fiscal year, I take out the financial folders and rotate them to
top drawer of the bedroom filing cabinet, and set up new file folders for the new year.
On balancing the checkbook, I usually try to do that the day they come in, so it only
takes a few minutes, and I don't have to sweat checks bouncing, and those nasty fees.
I try to write as few checks as possible, too, which also makes the checking account
easier to balance.
I hope this helps someone.
Thanks to Carolyne
