D Day Reminder

Today is once again D Day - Declutter!

Today, I am working on a project that I started a few days ago, you can see a picture of the original mess and also some good ideas on tackling your office supply cabinet (or closet in my case) by clicking the link below.

ORGANIZE YOUR OFFICE SUPPLY CABINET

Already a lot of things have gone packing, either to the garbage or the library or to donate.

I have a few thoughts on technique that I will be sharing when I am finished.

If you are tackling a big job, the number one rule I would tell you is not to take more out than you can deal with at one time unless you don’t mind living with the mess on your floor instead of in your closet. (I already broke that rule, that’s how I know!)

Also, don’t rush it. If you are doing a large job, you will be tempted to cut corners as you get tired of it, or to rush it through.

I did well getting rid of garbage and sorting for give aways, but for the next step - organizing and setting up centers so that I can find anything, I am consulting the Declutter Fast ebook that has really taken the art of decluttering and organizing to a new level for me.

You can get more details at this link if you would like to join me in the D Day Challenge.
