You can’t solve your home organization problems challenges tomorrow when you are on autopilot; repeating what you did yesterday.

Talking about your dwelling space (your personal HQ if you will) right now, as CEO of You, Inc.

But.

Autopilot.

Gets.

In.

The.

Way.

The paperwork of life.

The degree to which you are decently organized is the degree to which end of the survive-thrive continuum you live in.

The paperwork of life and the proverbial inbox

The paperwork of life and the proverbial inbox.

It never ends.

Get good great at keeping your calendar (and everything) organized.

Being organized frees you in a way that being disorganized can’t fathom.

i know because i used to be disorganized…going with the flow…entertained, medicated, and distracted.

As low as $21

Personal checkbook starting the week we arrived in Florida. We deposited (top line) all the money we (combined) had from the Washington State University credit union (Cheryl was an employee at WSU)…$1398.33. 10 days later we had $410.13 to our name (bottom right).

One year later (August 30, 1985) we had $639.23 to our name.

Three years after arriving to Orlando our (bottom right) balance is $21.23.

 

personal checkbook
Our five-year Orlando-arrival anniversary has us at $71.08.

 

Our checkbook balance was as low as $21 during our first five years at Disney.

And even at the five-year mark, we are at $71.

It was helpful for Chapin to see (last night) where we started because he’s never seen us struggle financially.

Truth is, we struggled the first 25 years of our (currently) 35-year marriage.

The more you travel, the less you should be taking

boarding pass
T-minus 35 minutes to home departure.

 

 

Traveling light is simple.

Pack only what you need.

Need only a few things.

Take nothing more.

Simple doesn’t equate to easy.

Repetition is the mother of all learning.

The more you travel, the less you should be taking.

Get it?

Organize to maximize your giving

The latest tools for staying organized. They arrived while i was in Glacier National Park last week.

 

Organize to maximize your giving.

In giving you receive.

Start a blog and write about your expertise.

Blogging is simple because you can do it on your own terms and on your own schedule.

If you can’t blog, this may be the uncovering of your opportunity, which is one of these two:

  1. You can’t write because you aren’t an expert (yet).
  2. You can’t write because you aren’t organized enough to dedicate the time and effort required to write like you mean it.

Which is it?
