People can easily get overwhelmed when starting to organize anything. Start small friends. #tlcorganizing #laorganizer #resultdriven #lovemyjob #iamorganized

Andrea's recipe for disaster. . Or how I learned to saddle chickens. . And other random facts from a mother of six. . In which I tell you how I am addicted to pavlov, occham and secret stuff to keep on top of it all. . Let's begin with occham. . Occham's Razor is LAW. "All things being equal, the simplest solution tends to be the best one." . Me? . I'm *creative* so I resisted this for YEARS. For DECADES. . Because there is always a small tweak to make it BETTER, eh? . I am the queen of making things complicated. . That is, until I had 6 kids. . You learn fast with 6 kids. . Or you learn painful. :) . Either way, you learn to keep it simple. . True story: Up to 3 years ago? I did not have a calendar or diary. . Now? . That's changed. . It wasn't easy. I tried a lot of different kinds. I found a boat load that do NOT work for me. . Which brings me to Pavlov. . See, I needed something which fit my life, my goals, my needs. . It had to be a SYSTEM. Like when Pavlov's bells rang, the dogs salivate. . Something that works as it should, when it should, how it should. . Something that keeps me on track. . And that's how I got to the SECRET STUFF. . Through trial and error. And error. And more error. . I came up with a system that works for me. . It contains diary elements, accountability elements, calendar elements. . Checks and balances exactly like I need them. . But it also has encouragement elements, vision elements, success elements. . The good Lord knows I need those, too! . And now? . Without having to be a slave to my calendar or my whims, I can work my schedule like a queen and get a boat load of stuff done. . Call it my guilty secret. Because people really stand in awe of everything I do. . But it's not a case of me being wonder woman. . It's a case of finally being co-ordinated, organized and on vision. . Thanks to my trusty homemade day-planner. . How do you keep on top of things? . . . #momof6 #iamorganized #ontopofit #mommanager
