I'm trying to get organized and remain organized.
My home office is in the middle of a remodel. I'm basically a 1 man business, with marketing, paper work, my trade, finding occasional sub contractors, and financials. I keep appointments on an email calendar as well as my binder calendar(for travel). I keep totes with folders for each client(paper trails), contact note pages(digital) for each client and project, keep a paper "to do" and "lead followup" list. Its a task to remain organized, but once in a while, I make myself put stuff where it should be. hopefully it will get easier. I can't afford to forget something or miss an appointment. My business is all reputation. |

A for throwing things out, try moving. I had a ton of stuff from school... threw most of the undergrad stuff away when I moved to Omaha, and most of the graduate stuff away when I got rid of my apartment there. One or two more moves should do it. :) |
I have way too much crap to be organized.

I take my daily dose of adderrall, that really helped me out. Still, I am rather unorganized.

I'm not wired to be organized, and somewhat overwhelmed with things to do all the time. So I've adapted.
I made sure to get a phone that allows me to have a constantly sync'ed calendar and email at all times. That's been my latest and greatest new tool. It's Outlook/Exhcange/MSMobile based phone, but it allows me to edit a single source of information whether I'm sitting at my computer or on the run. I also have an app I installed on my comptuer that keeps that calendar sync'd with my wife's google calendar. So that's helped. I'm still trying to figure out how to keep a running to-do list that works for me. I've tried note books, but that changes too quickly and gets messy quickly. Using Word keeps it clean, but isn't as easily accessible. I end up ending myself emails and using my email account as a notes system, but that's not ideal at all. I've heard that OneNote from Microsoft is cool and addictive, but I've not tried it myself. http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/on...686341033.aspx |
I've been using google docs more lately and sharing things with others. It's pretty cool.

I'm anal about it. Right now we are having a bunch of work done at the house, so it is kind of a mess. It drives me crazy having things where they aren't supposed to be. Arrrgghh. |
I just wander around aimlessly
