January is a good time to get organized! Here are a few tips to help you:

If you have good intentions to get organized this year, you’re not alone. Many of us make resolutions to get organized and stay that way starting in January. Here are three ideas to help you get organized both personally and professionally.

1. Organize your business by having checklists.

We all get busy with taking messages, writing down things to do, getting with associates to discuss ways to make a profit,etc. I have created a system for my business that enables me and my staff to stay on top of “the details”. Anyone can do it but it takes discipline. My website has further information at http://www.robinbondinteriors.com/design_firm_template_documents.php

2. Organize your home by tackling your closet first!

Do you sometimes have trouble finding what you want to wear each day? The best system I know of came from Marilu Henner (from the TV show Taxi and author of several self help books). She suggested organizing your clothes by color. Group all your black clothes together, red, purple, pink,etc. Also, you discover what your favorite colors are this way and I’ve heard that you should use these colors when decorating!

3. Organize your spiritual life.

Whether you vow to attend church a little bit more, be more vigilant in your prayers or have more alone time, it can do your soul wonders to just be still and just be in the moment.
