You can get
organized, even if you're pressed for time.
Here are 10 organizing projects
you can complete in 10
minutes or less.
1. Weed out 10 file folders.
Dedicate 1 minute per folder
and recycle any papers you no longer
need.
2. Pick through a junk drawer. Set a timer for 10 minutes,
grab
a garbage bag, open the junk drawer, pick through
anything no longer needed
and toss it in the garbage.
3. Make a donation bag. Go through your
clothes closet
and choose 5 articles of clothing you never wear. Put
them
in a donation bag, to be given to your favorite
charity.
4. Corral
toys. Walk around your home for 10 minutes with a
hamper (or have your kids
do this) and put any stray toys
into the hamper. Tomorrow, make your
10-minute organizing
project to put all the toys back in their proper
homes.

5.
Write out your greeting cards. Write out all of your
birthday, anniversary
and other greeting cards for one
month. Address them, stamp them and send
them out.
6. Pay a few bills. If you dread spending an entire
hour
each time you have to pay your bills, just take 10 minutes
each day
to do this task instead. Leave your bill paying
supplies out and available,
so you could pay the bills
as you get them without having to take all of your
supplies
out each time.
7. Make an appointment. Whether you've been
meaning to
make an appointment with a doctor, your accountant, a
repairman
or a friend, take 10 minutes now to do so.
8. Delete some email. Spend 10
minutes deleting any
email you no longer need from your inbox.
9.
Clear off a surface. Whether the surface is a table, a
dresser, a desk or an
ottoman, remove any clutter so you
can actually see the surface again. File
any papers needing
filing, return any stray items to their rightful homes
and
toss any junk.
10. Clean out your medicine cabinet. Toss old
makeup you
never use, expired prescriptions and anything else you
don't
need. Save your valued space for the things you
actually use.
