My Top 5 list of Favorite Organizing Tools

#1 Favorite Organizing Tool
My post office box. I visit it once a week, usually Wednesday and I stand at the counter in the post office and sort my mail. I use the P.O.’s trash bin. I only take what I need to have.


#2 Favorite Organizing Tool
Microsoft Outlook. You can manage your Contacts, E-mail, Tasks and Appointments in one place. I especially like 3 components in Outlook: Drag & Drop, Rules Wizard and the "Find" Feature.
Does Outlook really have to check your email every 5 minutes? You’ll probably get more done checking it only a few times a day. There are so many really great tools out there. Find the one that fits you and your needs, use what works, and make it work for you!


#3 Favorite Organizing Tool
My To Do List. I Make a “to do” list everyday, prioritize it and follow it.
One of the biggest efficiency concerns for most people is the ability to manage their time. Learning to prioritize may be the No. 1 way to handle more in less time. I keep a running To Do List in Microsoft Outlook Tasks, and prioritize the tasks (A-C) then I number them daily in order of their urgency. I do this first with the A's then move on to the B’s and use the same process.


#4 Favorite Organizing Tool
The Priority Folder System for all incoming mail: (The solution to your inbox nightmare™) I recommend that you review your at least once a week, go thru and clear the items on your desk. Make a decision NOW for every item you touch. (You may order this system on line right now at www.AtoZOrganizingPros.com/shopping.htm


#5 Favorite Organizing Tool
Delegate. I have learned to trust people with critical tasks in all areas of my life. When you learn to effectively delegate tasks you actually find that it is easier to keep the stuff you cannot delegate better organized.
