With everything you touch, decide at that moment is this something I need to DO, FILE or TOSS? If it is ‘to do’, put it where it goes to do it. If it is to file, file it. If it is to toss, definitely toss it. Sort your mail by the garbage can. Why pick something up twice. It does not seem like it takes that much time, but it does! Do this to de-clutter, to organize, to “unbury” yourself and to maintain order in your office, home, car and everywhere (purse, wallet, etc.). It is the art of making a decision and moving on. Indecision is the quickest way to accumulate clutter; you get overwhelmed and inundated with so many things you soon cannot focus. Do yourself a favor and JUST DO IT! 🙂
