Organization

This is a new start not only for me but this blog as well.

I was reading a book today while I was at Kinkos about organizing. I have a problem with getting started on a organizing project and I will go to find something I need for organizing and I will see that the dishes need done. Then after the dishes are done I put a quick load of laundry done. The book was talking about when you start a project you should FOCUS on completeing it. Then do the dishes. Easier said than done because I am a multitasker. My organizing tip for the day is:

*Pick one task and complete it before you do anything else.
