Organizational Break: I to needed to take a break.

                It has been about 4 years since I posted a blog. In all that time I never stopped working on organization. If anything I found more things to write about and give others ideas. A lot has changed; I have started a new job. My youngest got married and is expecting her first child. My husband and I have remodeled and sold our prior home to buy a new one and move closer to work to cut down on our commute time. We have been remolding our new smaller home to make it what we want and we have much more yet to do. Funny how a few years goes by and things change so much. My newer job keeps me on my toes. I work as a receptionist for a company that is growing and expanding quickly. Where I support and work for several departments. Trust me when I say I am not just a receptionist. I juggle so very many things all at the same time if I was not a multi-tasker or as organized many major errors would occur. I ask you to stop here for just a moment and think of the many tasks that you juggle every single day…

 You too have the ability to be a multi-tasker and be organized. For example when you drive a vehicle you are organizing and multi-tasking. You are steering, controlling the speed, watching other drivers, reacting to them, as well as paying attention to where you have come from and where you are going. There are many other things some do while driving, but ultimately you are multi-tasking in an organized fashion, by what dancers know as muscle memory. When you do things over and over you get more efficient at them and they become almost second nature and you do them without having to think of what you are doing or how you need to do it. This is to show you that with a little practice you can become organized. Starting anything new is hard, and there is a lot of work to be done. As you go along things will become easier and second nature. A new way of doing things will take getting use to, but it will be well worth it. So when change comes your way and you know it will, you will be much better equipped to take it on. My hope in telling you these things are to inspire you to take a step in the direction of organizing yourself and ultimately your life.

P.S. Don’t get caught up in the "I must change everything at one time.” attitude / thought process. Take it step by step even one little change can make a difference. Don’t overwhelm yourself. Like they say “Rome wasn't built in a day”.
