Every year I look forward to the NAPO (National Association of Professional Organizers) national conference. This year it was in Reno, NV the second week in April and because I've just been elected to the board I was there for 6 days. I really enjoyed the board meetings and I am excited to be a part of the leadership for this great association. Then it was 3 awesome days hanging out with my organizing buddies and making wonderful new friends.

I also had the privilege of presenting Growing Your Business through Speaking, Newsletters, and Article at the conference. What a great audience!

Hanging out with over 700 organizers for a week really made realize what a fantastic profession I'm in and how great my colleagues are. If you feel overwhelmed by your stuff; don't wait any longer to get help. I know organizing experts all over the world and would be happy to refer you to the perfect person to help you.

If you're interested is working with me in my Private Platinum Program just send me a quick e-mail and I'll send you a Fearless Organizing scorecard to fill out and then we'll visit by phone to see if my program is a right fit for you!

Happy spring!

In my mid-month April newsletter the feature article was about doing the spring closet fling. When I work with clients in their clothes closet and speak to audiences about organizing their closet the word 'someday' comes up over and over again!

This word also comes up as I work with clients in their offices and as they go through their paper.

I might need this someday.

I'll fit into this someday.

You just never know, this may come in handy someday.

Someday I'll get organized.

Do you fall into the 'someday' trap when trying to get organized?

The 'someday trap' is a real self-esteem and productivity killer. If you allow yourself to let 'someday' be part of your thinking you're going to find it really hard to let go of items you don't need, clothes you'll never wear again, and paper that is not necessary.

How about a new way of thinking? How about having 'someday' be today? If you can't wear something right now, if you don't need something right now, and if you can't come up with a great reason to keep that item - and if that elusive word 'someday' pops up as you're going through the decision making process of what to keep - let the item go. Yes, let it go.

If you do I guarantee you're going to feel a lot better about yourself. Imagine, having only clothes that fit you in your closet. Imagine, your office only has the documents you need. Imagine, your junk drawer doesn't have any 'junk' in it!

Stop beating yourself up every time you dig through a file drawer, a desk drawer, the top of your desk, and your closet. Make an appointment in your calendar to organize that area and don't let the 'someday trap' mess it up!

My guideline for quality living is: Only have in your life what you know to be useful, think to be beautiful and you love. There is no room for 'someday'!

On January 18, March 7, and April 25 of this year I presented the first-of-its-kind Fearless Organizing Virtual Day. During the three Virtual Days over 90 people have spent the day with me 'virtually' in their office getting their space and time organized. We all had a blast! I had guests from all over the US and Canada, Switzerland, Bermuda, Australia, and the United Kingdom. We covered 6 areas in the office and I gave them the systems and methodology to become more productive in their office.

Imagine spending the day in your office with an expert 'virtually' by your side for an entire day getting your office organized so that you can be more productive! This will be a great day!

You'll get me 'virtually' for an entire day helping you to organize your office, your time, and your brain.

PLUS...membership in the Virtual Day Community Group, follow-up teleclass, and ALL the recordings of the classes throughout the day.

AND...the option to get the exclusive 'Get Organized Kit', the Organized Goals Webinar, and the 'Organize with Confidence' 3-CD audio set.

SO...NOW is the time act! The early-bird registration ends Friday, June 20, 2008.

Go here to find out more and claim your spot at the Fearless Organizing Virtual Day.

You can get more done, have more time, and make more money in your business.

Spend just one day on Friday, June 27, 2008 to not only learn the tools and systems to achieve a productive environment but to actually take ACTION in your office for an entire day! You won't believe how much you'll get accomplished!
