Organizing Your Life in a 3-ring Binder
February 15, 2010 Written By: Ken If you are like most of us, you have boxes of papers, photos and other 'stuff' hidden away for when you get to it. At one point you thought these things were too precious to get rid of, or you simply ran out of time, energy or urge to go through more of your stuff. Or you simply haven't moved in the last 10+ years. Here is a thought. Some papers you need to be able to find, others you might like to find while still others you have no reason why you kept them in the first place. Take a box ( or two) and separate it into like piles: tax documents, car documents, kids pictures, letters from X, articles I keep meaning to read, recipes I keep meaning to make.... You get the idea. No getting rid of them yet. Just sort them out. Now take a pile. Start with things that may be easier for you to sort through. Say, tax documents. Go through the pile, eliminate things you don't actually need. Take the resulting pile of organized material, clip it into a 3-ring binder. Repeat, until done. Going through smaller piles of material allows you do finish a task in a reasonable period of time and is a LOT less daunting. The 3-ring binders allow you to a) find things again at a later date and b) avoid starting new piles of paper because it is so easy to add to the binder. But who wants a wall of ugly, toxic black vinyl binders in their house? Not me. But this is the 21st century and you have options. Check out Naked Binder's 3-Ring Project Binders. 100% recycled and recyclable, stronger that an ox, and they come in 9 colors, 4 ring sizes and 2 spine shapes. All of a sudden your organizing becomes an art project.

"I am currently a doctorate student, and I LOVE your binders. I carry them to school and they have already lasted almost a year. I am constantly questioned about them, and actually made a class announcement when you had your earth day special."
