Good Question!
August 19, 2010 by Kristin Lowe
A journalist recently asked us some great questions about organising. Here they are – along with our responses.

Quick and Dirty De-Cluttering

This month we continue our ‘Quick and Dirty’ organising series by looking at how to de-clutter an area of your home that is bugging you.
I call these processes ‘Quick and Dirty’ because these are basic survival strategies for people who feel overwhelmed and need something simple to help them get moving. So far we’ve looked at Email, Paper, and To-Do lists.

Helping Kids Get Rid of Toys
October 31, 2009 by admin
Holiday time is on the way again, and for those of us with children this means another round of presents to add to our already overloaded space at home.
Now is a great time for you and the kids to make room for those new items coming your way this season.

They’ll also learn basic organising strategies that will help them throughout the rest of their lives.

Great Family CEOs spend their time and energy shaping a great future for all of us – through the people their children are becoming.
