Daily Tips for Get Organized Month!

Continuing our feature for the month--here are the remainder of the daily tips for January, Get Organized Month!

Day 22 Tip of the Day
Do you lose track of paying bills? Use a tickler file to hold important papers and reminders. Check it daily to keep on top of everything.

Day 23 Tip of the Day
When filing papers, take out any old ones as you put in new ones. It will make year-end sorting much easier for tax purposes.

Day 24 Tip of the Day
If you purchase anything that comes with a warranty, record the purchase date, purchase price, model number and serial number on the warranty. Claims will be much easier.

Day 25 Tip of the Day
Recycle everything you can through your local waste collection. If there are things they don’t take, like electronics, check with your county for special drop-off stations.

Day 26 Tip of the Day
Look through the contacts in your address book and electronic mail. Delete what you can and make any necessary changes to phone numbers, etc.

Day 27 Tip of the Day
You should have one place to go for all important information. Create a Home Organizer Notebook to hold school, medical, work, family info, etc.

Day 28 Tip of the Day
Make it a habit to look ahead a week or two on your calendar. Are there upcoming events that need an RSVP or gift? Are there bills to pay or reservations to make? Don’t wait until the last minute.

Day 29 Tip of the Day
Make life simple—learn to say “no”. The more you volunteer, the more you are asked. Set limits for yourself, and volunteer for those tasks that mean the most to you.

Day 30 Tip of the Day
Keep a box near your back door for donations. When you are driving in that direction, take the box, no matter how full. Start a new one when you get home.

Day 31 Tip of the Day
You’ve done a great job this month! Reward yourself! In fact, reward yourself for any accomplishment, no matter how small. You deserve it!
