“Your future success will be determined more by your being organized than by any other single action you take.”

Roadmap of Your L.I.F.E.: Location, Information, Focus, Experience^TM

When you are not organized –

• Is it costing you time?
• Is it costing you money?
• Is it costing you stress?

The Wall Street Journal reported that people lose as much as six weeks a year just searching for information.

Six weeks?

If you’re an individual…
A person making $60,000 wastes $6,293 a year just searching for information. That means someone making just $30,000 wastes $3,145 a year looking for documents.

If you’re a company…
Multiply the number of people in your organization x 6 weeks.
How much time are you losing?

Now multiply the number of people in your company by $3,000 ($3,145). How much money is that six weeks costing your organization?
Ex: 100 people x $3,000 = $300,000 a year just to search for information.

If you’re a student… It costs you time if you lose a research paper and have to write it over, or you don’t pass a class and have to take it over again. It may cost you more money to finish in five years instead of four. It also costs you in free time to be with your friends and do the things you love to do.

Why don’t people like to get organized?
Most people don’t like organizing because they think it’s a lot of work. Actually it’s easier to be organized, because you know where everything is. You can find what you want quickly and easily. When you’re disorganized, it takes much longer to locate anything, and it builds your stress level to a state that doesn’t have to exist.

For Individuals:
Whether it’s a file system or a time management system, when you learn the steps to the system, it will become a habit, and eventually a simple routine. You will be surprised at how much more efficient you will be. And when you are more efficient, you will be more productive. There are also some very nice side benefits to organizing: You will be more confident, less stressed, and therefore, happier.

For Companies:
When employees are more organized, they are less stressed and more confident. Employees who enjoy their work are happier, and consequently more productive. The workplace atmosphere as a whole is more enjoyable to work in which will mean higher retention of your employees. Less stress also means less sick time and less health insurance costs. For the company, this means projects done on time or early, and more profits.

For Students:
Whether it’s organizing your space, your papers, or your time, when you learn the steps to the system, it will become a habit, and you will establish routines to be more efficient in getting to class and studying. Then you will have more time to be with your friends and enjoy the journey.

“Of all the self-improvement seminars we have been offered as employees, this has proven to be the best and most applicable I have ever attended. I am much better organized at work.”
