How To Get Organized In Your Business
/
Are you living in a constant state of chaos within your business? If so don’t feel bad or ashamed about it. This isn’t something that is seen as a real priority until you become frustrated when you can’t find something. I am speaking from experience. It is usually when you are working on a deep-thinking project and you click on a folder that should have what you need in it but it doesn’t. The next step is to pound your fist on the table and make promises to yourself to get better organized and the cycle continues.

Recently, I discovered a book by David Allen called Getting Things Done The Art of Stress-Free Productivity that changed my perspective on how to get better organized in my business and in my life. It boils down to these 3 things:
Get stuff off your mind and put it in a place that you will check back later.
Make a decision on what actions you will take on your stuff by thinking about the desired outcome and working backwards.
Keep regular reminders around that will help you to follow up on your action items
This list is simple but powerful. He provides more detailed information about each of these in his book. My goal today is to share a brief overview with you to get your mind prepared to move in this direction.
Keep IT Sunny!
