Summary

On the Wednesday podcast, I get to talk with members of the Organize 365­® community as they share their challenges, progress, missteps and triumphs along their organizing journey. You can see and hear transformation in action. I look forward to helping YOU learn the skill of organization, too!

Kristen K. had a demanding full time job and a demanding two year old.  When she "broke", she found herself searching for productivity podcasts. Lucky me, Organize 365® came up and Kristen was listening so she could gain control over her boxes of mail. Kristen was taking vacation days just to address these boxes of mail; and she knew there had to be a more productive way. Paper can easily get the better of anyone. After listening to multiple episodes, she knew the next step was the Sunday Basket. You guys, she still has her original Sunday Basket and uses it faithfully! She's even gone further to become a certified organizer so she can help others. She knows the struggle and doesn't want others to go through the same struggle.

Kristen made an interesting side comment during this episode. She said, "I mean I had to do it, I knew my husband wasn't going to help." Too often we think our family is going to join us in this organization endeavor. No, they may not - and that's ok. You have to go into it knowing this is a "you" thing.

We also discussed productivity vs. priority! Being productive is NOT prioritizing your tasks. Pick your priority, and that priority is ONE. You can prioritize ONE section of your life or ONE room in your house. We go over all the ins and outs of this topic in the episode.

Yeah, Shelby was probably around two years old. Oh, two. Two is when I broke as well. I mean,
