We spend so much time trying to get the business up and running that we may end up becoming burned out and lose our motivation. There is so much to learn and
If you were to line up 14 people and ask each of them what success meant to them, chances are you'd get 14 different answers. No this doesn't mean that they are all disorganized, but one common thread of successful people is that they are both punctual and organized. Start by looking around your computer room at home. How many items do you have taped to your wall that you won't be using again? Why not take some time to remove this extra clutter? And when was the last time you cleaned out your office desk? Be careful where you put your hands or you might just find a Black Widow. No I'm kidding, but seriously, you should go through everything you have in your office once a year.Start shredding outdated paperwork and go through every single thing in your office. How many old outdated manuals do you have sitting around that have no value to you anymore and won't help you get ahead. Consider donating them to the public library or your local salvation army. I donate stuff all the time to the DAV, which stands for Disabled American Veterans. They turn around and sell these and use the extra profits to help disabled vets, and since I'm a disabled veteran I feel this is a noble cause. Also the next time you go to your room go through each shirt and pair of pants and honestly ask yourself if you'll be wearing all this stuff in the near future. If not add it to the list of things to donate.I'm by no means considered a hoarder. I'm sure many of you watched that TV show hoarders and they are so bad they save everything including tin cans, old plastic bottles and most things we consider trash. However I've been known to fall behind on my spring cleaning. I guess I'm proud of myself because I've finally developed a system to getting organized that doesn't take but an hour or two per week, and generally keeps my place pretty clean. The work I do pays more than I'd make having garage sales so I prefer to donate my extra stuff I don't need, so I take an hour or two per week going through stuff and evaluating its importance. I usually use the 2 year rule, meaning if I don't plan on using it within the next 2 years it's gone. Almost all the food in my moms freezer was dated back to 2001. It took me 3 weeks to clean it all out but each week I filled one trash can full of this stale food. This way I didn't have to spend any extra money renting a dumpster, but it's embarassing having an extra dumpster sitting in front of your house anyway, even if it's just a few days. So if you're cleaning out your garage for example and figure it will take 15 trash cans to get everything out, get started as soon as possible. But why stress out and try to do it within a week? That's not necessary, just spend a couple hours per week on it and full up 2 trash cans per week, so 2 months down the road with just a small amount of effort per week you'll have a nice clean garage you can be proud of without killing yourself as you clean it.
