Organizing My Own Paperwork

Yes, professional organizers have to juggle paperwork too!  Lately I’ve been going to a lot of meetings.  Well, the good news is they all seem to have involved good food, the bad news is my desk was starting to clutter with papers since I wasn’t at home working on them.  When I have a cluttered desk, I can’t think straight.   So to get myself started, I just did a quick sort.  Anything related to personal papers went on one pile and anything related to business paperwork, went on a second pile.  Right away I had clear space on my desk, already feeling better!

Next, I grabbed two pieces of scratch paper.  At the top of one I wrote “Business” and at the top of the other paper I wrote “Personal.”  I made a quick list of the things I would like to accomplish on each sheet. 

The sorting and the lists were just enough to clear my head, clear space on my desk and give me focus & direction.  Now I can tackle the tasks throughout the weekend.  Organizing my own paperwork really wasn’t so bad!
