The most important part of any system is prioritizing. No matter how organized you are, if you try to do too much,

you won't be able to keep up. That's my biggest problem, because I am so curious about everything. I need to find a way

to stop trying to keep up with all that interests me.

A wise friend of mine often reminded me, "Don't confuse activity with accomplishment."

Only problem with this is if you have CFS - I personally found systems very demoralizing, as could make the best plans in the world but without vital energy to carry them out, they're pointless.

My husband makes the money and I have to keep this huge house we got in order and cook etc. Just the 2 of us and we got the biggest house we looked at. ROTFL. The idea was re-sale value, it was a mess and we had to clean it up, no one would buy it like it was, instead they bought little houses that had small rooms, but were clean. (they must have that was all that was on the market besides this one) I have a system I guess I get by and have time to read. But I still have too much house and yard. Oh well.

These are all GREAT ideas! Here is one more great one. It's called EAT THAT FROG.

What that means is you do the most difficult thing on your "to do" list first thing in the morning. No matter how hard it is, difficult or distasteful, you just DO IT right away and get it out of the way. The idea is that if you had to eat a live frog in the morning, that would easily be the worst thing to happen to you for the rest of the day. So it helps tremendously to get the frog out of the way first, then everything else becomes easier.

EAT THAT FROG!!! ( Idea thanks to Brian Tracy)
