Summary
I'm so excited. It's my birthday! I am 50 years old today!!!
The women in my family have lived to be old—into their 90s and 100s. I have always been in awe of all they have done in their lives. Organize 365® just turned 10 years old. I think I am going to live to 100, so I am just getting started.
I have an innate understanding of time and money that I call "Lisa math." It doesn't follow the traditional rules about these things, but I am able to use it to show how I understand the world.
We all have constraints in life. We are naturally limited by our time, money, and energy. Getting organized helps you to develop more capacity by investing your current time for a future return of more time.
Improving your capacity allows you to do more things in life, handle unexpected events, and live out your unique purpose.
The mission of Organize 365® is to help busy people get their home and paper organized so that they can do what they are uniquely created to do.
Over the last 20 years, my Sunday Basket® has given me an extra 5,200 hours. I have poured that extra time into creating Organize 365®. I have been able to help many of you save more time by using your Sunday Baskets®. And, boy, have those hours added up!
By end of 2020, the Organize 365® customers saved over 1 million hours!!! At the end of 2021, we have saved over 2.5 million hours.
Your time and capacity have been unlocked. So many of you have been gracious enough to share how you are living your unique purpose using the hashtag #myextra5. That is the best birthday gift ever.

| 0:11.9 | expert, and motivational speaker, Lisa Woodruff. This podcast will help you embrace progress |
| 0:18.8 | over perfection and create lasting, functional organizing in your home. I have so much to share |
| 0:25.3 | with you. So let's get started. I'm so excited. First of all, it's my birthday. I'm 50. I am |
| 0:35.3 | 50 years old today. Oh my goodness. You guys, I have thought ever since I was a young child, |
| 0:41.5 | the women in my family on both sides lived to be old, old, old 90s, hundreds. And I remember |
| 0:50.5 | just sitting at the feet of my grandmother's and listening to their stories about their |
| 0:54.7 | childhoods and their marriages and the businesses that they were a part of and the children |
| 1:00.2 | that they helped raise and the families that they took care of and just in awe of them and all |
| 1:06.2 | the things that they did in their life. And I have known in my guts since I was a young child |
| 1:12.0 | that I would live to be 100. I might not, but I mean, I think I'm going to. So for me, 50, |
| 1:19.7 | like I'm just getting started. I totally feel like I'm just getting started. I remember being |
| 1:25.5 | at the mastermind in Nashville that I attended in February and I stood up in front of the group and |

| 1:37.3 | I am 10 years into a 40 year career. Like I am just getting started. I'm just getting started with |
| 1:43.2 | organized 365. I'm just getting started with my life, which is kind of crazy to say when you're |
| 1:49.9 | turning 50. I think the older you get chronologically, almost the younger you feel mentally. I don't |
| 1:56.8 | know how to explain it. But I do want to talk today. This is a bonus podcast episode. It could |
| 2:02.7 | be long. It came to me a week ago at 2 a.m. and I recorded this podcast in my head to you until 7 a.m. |
| 2:12.2 | So many, many iterations, stories I wanted to tell, things I wanted to deep dive into. I have |
| 2:17.4 | so many notes in front of me, but I'm just going to let this story come out as it comes out, |
| 2:22.5 | as a gift to myself for being 50. As a gift to organize 365 for being 10. As a gift to having done |
