Two Reasons I Use Evernote for my Organizing Business

Before I begin any project, I like to take pictures and write down notes and thoughts. When I got my Samsung Galaxy Phone and Tab, I noticed a program called Evernote and decided to give it try. I love it! There are many uses for Evernote in my life but here are TWO reasons I use it:

1) It is great on a consultation with a client. I can take notes, draw, and take pictures within the notes. Its very organized for me. And its easy for me to go back and find what I'm looking for within that job. I don't have to switch programs to take pics on one thing and notes on another. Its all right there in one! 

2) I'm connected!! I downloaded Evernote on my computer and my phone and tab. Everything is in sync and updated at all times. So if I only have my phone and have an idea that i want to write down, I can go on there and write it and save it. Then later when I'm on my computer and I open Evernote, the new additions are there! I can also send my notes via email too. I'm really happy with the program!

One Way To Organize A Kitchen!

There are many ways to organize a kitchen, but here is one way:

If you have another room you can put stuff in ( a dining room table is good, or put down a sheet to place items on), then take everything out of the cabinets and place in the other room. Put like minded things together. All food in one place, all cups in one place, all glasses in another, etc.. As you are doing it, look at the food items expiration dates. If the food item is expired, then throw out immediately (have large, heavy trash bags handy). If a glass is broke or cracked, throw it out. If you don't have a full set of dishes, set aside to give away.

Once you got everything out, you can see WHAT you have and how it will fit back in to your space. AND it will be easier for you to look at your kitchen space and decide how you want the cabinets to be filled. My recommendation, all food and spices in one area and easy to get to. And all glasses and plates in one area and easy to get to. And all pots and pans in one spot. I would do food higher and pots and pans lower. Glasses and plates eye level.

We Can Talk Ourselves Out of Anything

We can talk ourselves out of anything. It doesn't need a lot of words to accomplish. We can talk ourselves out of anything with a few words (thoughts). A million excuses or just one reason can change the course of action. I can relate this to organizing. One minute you are excited to have a nicely organized kitchen. You imagine how easy it will be to find things. You smile at the thought of having the pots and pans in a better and more accessible spot when you are in the middle of cooking. THEN the realization of your CURRENT kitchen situation makes you cringe and the thought of having to DO the work makes you stop in your tracks. Suddenly you forget the warm and exciting feelings you had a few minutes ago. And with a few simple words like: "I cant do it right now" or " I'll get to it someday", you have talked yourself out of organizing. 

I invite you to recognize when THAT starts to happen. Acknowledge it. Try not to embrace it. Do your best to stay the course that you are trying to set. The shift in thought doesn't happen overnight but keep trying till you get it! You can do it! 

Talk yourself into something!!!!

My 100th Post!

Today is my 100th Post on this blog! On my other blog thesuperorganizeruniverse I hit that mark about in early April. I started THIS blog about a month after I started the other. My idea was to have a spin-off blog to that main one. This was to be a space where I would share quick tips. It wouldn't be a lot of storytelling or commentary on life..just the tips (hence the title of this blog). I wasn't sure how it was going to play out. WIth the other blog, I had a structure and feel that I wanted. This one I did not.

It has been a pleasure writing this blog. I feel BOTH blogs have given me enough space to share what know and learned. I want to thank everyone who reads my posts and those who comment. Once I write something and publish it, I never know how its going to be received. Its been nice hearing from you on Twitter, Facebook, and Pinterest. I also want to thank the folks who follow my mini challenges and I hope your life is improved. And thank you for passing on articles for me to read! I like to keep abreast of all things organizing and life coaching!

I can't believe that time has passed where I've written 100 posts on this blog! And I look forward to writing another 100! Thank You so very much!

My Secret Garden

Above is a pic of my indoor herb and vegetable garden. I love it! I used the herb for seasoning my food I cook. One of my plants is Peppermint. Another is Purple Basil. Both make that part of the room smell great!! I suggest to everyone that if you cook or make salads, grow your own little garden. Find a place that gets some sunlight in her home and do it!

You can do seeds (they are not expensive) but what i did was get little plants at my local farmers market (they were 4 for $5). One they came from a local farm ( I like to support local farms.) and they were already started. I talked to the farmer to find which ones were easy to take care of (I know not everyone has a naturally green thumb) I found a great spot and there you go. It beautifies your room. It can smell good. Its fresh and good for you.
