Section 1: This is Your Brain

There are many excellent reasons to get organized, but the best one I know is that human brains have not had any major structural change for about 50,000 years. Meanwhile, in the 1900's the amount of information that we process has multiplied by a factor of thousands (N. Y. Times). We simply are not designed to deal with it all. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health says a full eighty percent of all medical conditions are directly stress related. What better reason to learn how to use your own brain with less stress for better results?

Includes Tips Articles "Ergonomic Dynamos," "Pump Up Your Personal Best Power Hour," and "Human Circadian Timeline."

Section 2: Overcoming Information Overload

One daily edition of the New York Times has more information than a person living 100 years ago was exposed to in their lifetime! In our information-saturated world it's increasingly stressful to decide how to take appropriate advantage of the countless demands for our attention and time. Since seventy percent of American workers main job is finding even more information it makes managing everything even more difficult. The fear that keeps us going under the onslaught of incoming information is "I might need this someday." Sound familiar? Unfortunately, that inevitably turns into "I know I had it here … somewhere." It's no wonder we can't find what we're looking for!

Includes Tips Articles "Hot Questions to Melt Information Overload," "Working Your Info Zones," and "RAFT over the Info River Rapids."

The New York Times reports that the average U.S. executive wastes six weeks each year just shuffling through paper piles and computer files. Got better things to do with your time? Me, too! Take a minute, and just imagine what you could accomplish at your business and in your life with six weeks more in each year. All that time can be yours, just for upgrading your paper organizing skills.In every cross-industry management survey over the last twenty years paper appears in the Top Ten Time Wasters. Yet, from the day it arrives — eighty percent of all filed material is NEVER referred to again!

Section 4: Organizing Your Computer

Since most of us have one hand in the paper world and the other in the electronic world, setting yourself up for optimum efficiency and minimal stress means blending your computer desktop with your paper filing. The more your paper and electronic systems mimic each other, the easier it will be to remember where to put either kind of file as well as where to look for them. I promise that you need not be a techie to improve your computing with my tips.

Section 5: Personal Organizing at Home

Let's face it, if you have a family and a home you are in the business of having a life. Perhaps you are one of those folks whose workplace is organized but your personal office is overflowing with paper. Don't worry— there is still hope. You can eliminate a lot of paper—before it arrives! Junk mail is one of the invisible time thieves: part of our daily life that steals our time a little bit at a time, with no real payoff. The articles in this section will assist you in setting up workable systems for your home and personal life. I’ll also suggest software to make it easier for you to computerize your finances. The important thing is to keep it so simple you’ll actually use the new systems!

Section 6: Optimizing Your Office

According to the Steelcase Workplace Index Survey of 2000, American office workers spend an average of 20 minutes per day organizing their work spaces. To me that suggests that they don't yet have a system that works for them. Remember, by defining and labeling your space, you're more likely to put things in the right place the first time! In this section of the book, we're going to put it all together to create a better office for you. You'll see Info Zones and paper management in action, and examples of ways to apply my tips whether your office is in a corporate high-rise or at home.

Includes "Design Your Ideal Office" and "Office Shopping List" Exercises.

Section 7: Managing Your Activities and TIme

This section is about Activity management, not time management. Can you actually edit or alter time? Can you push one day from this week in which you have few appointments into next week when you are overbooked? Can you make a day with more than 24 hours in it? The point is that you cannot manage time. "What can you really manage?" The answers boil down to the four secrets of real time management: 1) Environment, 2) Resources and 3) Information. Finally, our Activities: when, how and where we choose to do what for whom.

Includes Tips Articles "Calendars & Scheduling," "Shorter Meetings=Better Results," and "Terminate Telephone Tag"
