As I sat down to write a blog post this morning, I had to
laugh when I realized the irony that I write a blog about organization. This is what my desk surface looked
like!!
I might
be the only organizational blogger that has these moments, but I seriously
doubt it!
This has been yet another busy, crazy week. I had a big writing deadline for one of my
consulting clients, so I’ve been sneaking extra work time in here and there,
which results in me running away from the work repeatedly to tend to a needy
child. After the kids go to bed, I
should straighten up so things are neat and welcoming the next morning, but I
just haven’t thought about doing it this week.
I’m proud of myself for taking a few minutes to laugh at the
ridiculousness of the idea that I try to share insights on organization. Then, after the photo to record the moment, I
straightened things up. The messy "pile" isn’t usually
quite this large, and it only took me 15 minutes to clean up my work
surface (including dusting), put things away where they go, and get ready to work.
Take a few minutes today to give yourself a break. Be proud of all that you accomplish. Try to find humor in your imperfections.
