I just recently moved my office from one building to another building. In the process I have accidently mixed up my 2010 files with my 2011 files. Now at first thought I could only imagine curling up in a ball and crying for a week but, the new me; forward, challenging and free spirit, saw this as a start to something beneficial. This is my opportunity to be more organized, more stream lined and clutter free. I AM GIVING UP CLUTTER!!!! I throw nonsensical paper away immediately. I pay the bills then file them. My filing system is set up the way we do taxes so, there is no guessing to where it is or how it relates. How many pens do you need anyway!? It has now spun out to other parts of my life...I don't buy magazines, no need, I just read on line and the old ones I've donated. Collections are great but, I'm limiting mine to only 2, books and pictures. I also have limited the amount of books 20 and pictures I'm only keeping if I know who they are or where it is, otherwise what is the point? I'm looking into multi purpose items and just paring down! Once my desk was cleared I could think wider, more thoughts were flowing through my head. De-cluttering just feels great!
