Tips and Tricks to Make Life Easier
It's easier to be lazy when you're organized. |
| Here are 4 quick monthly tips from me, Molly Boren
of Simplicity Works Home + Office Organizing Services.
I hope they make your life a little easier.
Remember: if it takes 2 minutes or less, do it now.
That is, read this now and then file or delete it.
How ironic if it were to become e-clutter! |

DO |

Do Keep Your Essentials Nearby
I love my "essentials" bag. Oh the hassles it solves! Stuff it with whatever on-the-go tools you deem essential: Band Aids, dental floss, nail clippers, aspirin, a safety pin, lip gloss, etc. It can be any small, easily-identifiable, zippered bag you have lying around, to be tossed into whichever larger bag you schlep that day. One less thing to think about.

DON'T
|
| |
Don't Remember Everything It's impossible! Plus, your beautiful brain should be reserved for higher-level work. Any calendar, notebook, and address book are perfectly capable of keeping track of appointments, tasks, ideas, and contacts. Just BE CONSISTENT. Using 1 collection point for each type of info means you'll always know where to find it. |

GET
|
| |
Get Virus-Free Computing Karen Sanders of Sanders IT Consulting is a great resource for home and office computer repair/tutoring/tune-ups/etc. She showed me this great anti-virus software, Malware Bytes. The free version downloads quickly and goes a long way toward saving your computer from dangerous -- and embarrassing -- hijacking. |
|
GIVE |
| |
Give to Great Radio (Get Free Stuff) If you're like me, you might be a little bit addicted to public radio. You can support it for free when you join and get a MemberCard (which Chicago's WBEZ and many others offer) since you save on 2-for-1 meals, etc. at millions of good places. You can even find nearby restaurants any time by texting your address. |
