Maintaining the Study


Don’t put papers on your desktop to just collect. When a bill comes in, put it in the bill-organizer on your desktop or pay it immediately and put it in the mail.

The same with other mail and paperwork.

I open the mail right over the trash can—that way, whatever is garbage doesn’t collect on my desk, but hits the circular file immediately and it’s out of my hair.

Consider having a cross-cut shredder in your study for shredding pre-approved credit-card offers.

Most identity theft takes place when information is gathered from credit card applications that were stolen from the trash.

A shredder is a worthwhile investment.

Dust your bookshelves once a week.

Run your duster over the area between the ends of the books and the edge of the shelf.

Wipe down your monitor weekly with window cleaner and a rag.

Finally, the last stages of maintaining your organization… and you thought this section would never come!

"You are a life Saver!!

I recently discovered this site and I can tell you that my life has not been the same. I now come here EVERYDAY and spend at least 1 hour.

I used to spend that time browsing online fashion and beauty magazine which just means that I spend more. Now I have replaced that habit with coming here.

In future I will think about contributing articles as well. Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you!!! and God bless"
