Paperwork can become overwhelming even in todays ‘paperless society’. If something is not supplied as a hard copy then your computer in box will be filling up with electronic copies of reports, bills, statements, receipts, school communications, membership reminders etc, etc, etc.
Clutter freedom can help you to make sense out of chaos, identify which documents need to retained and which can be recycled or shredded. A filing system of categories that you identify with will be created in a way that works for you whether it be a filing cabinet, envelope folders or ring binders displayed on a shelf.
Electronic filing on your computer can mirror your physical filing in your home office area. Key dates such as renewals, payment dates and appointments can all be diarised in a desk diary or on a phone.
By clearing the backlog, creating an uncluttered area in which to work and an organised system that you understand you will be able to maintain a tidy and efficient home office.
