SCHEDULE IT.<br />
When it comes down to it, organization<br />
is built on routines, not storage<br />
systems.<br />
Busy families can benefit from<br />
scheduling a daily “pick-up time.” If<br />
paperwork and mail is an ever-present<br />
problem, assign one place for<br />
sorting, purging and filing every day.<br />
PRACTICE PREVENTION.<br />
To achieve lasting organization,<br />
establish ground rules for what stays,<br />
what goes and when. A few examples:<br />
“I will not keep magazines older than<br />
two months” or “If it’s worn, torn,<br />
stained or broken, I will throw it<br />
away.”<br />

ADJUST AS NEEDED.<br />
Expect to make some adjustments<br />
as your system is put to the test of<br />
everyday life.<br />
