Kids: Cutting Back on Toys
 How many types of building blocks does a child need?
While Legos, K'nex, and Playmobile all have great products, having one style of building blocks is sufficient.
You can pare down your toy room by selecting just one of each type of toy. What do you do with the rest? Either give them to friends with young children or donate them to a thrift shop or nursery school.
When your children have more select toys, they are more likely to play with them. An overflowing play room can be overwhelming!

Time: Effectiveness
 An excerpt from "The Daily Motivator" by Ralph Marston
What is it that makes some people more effective than others?
Is it skill, or luck, or secret knowledge?
More than anything else, it is a clear and consistent sense
of purpose. When the objective is compelling enough, you
will find a workable, effective way to make it happen.
To be effective, you must be effective toward some
particular end. Clearly define, visualize and feel the
reality of the goal, mentally weaving it into every part of
your life.
When it truly means something to you, you'll do it very
well. What's even better is that in the achievement that
surely comes, you'll find great fulfillment.

Home & Office: Magazines
 Having trouble staying current with your magazines?Give your reading a "one-way" trip. When you travel by train or plane take some catch up reading. Once you've finished, remove the name and address label and toss.
If you are never able to get to your magazines, you may want to consider canceling your subscription and buying it from the newsstand when you have the time to read.
