Live Light Using These 5 Simple Steps to Organizing Clutter

Long before people came to the Americas and took over the land the Indians lived in beautiful harmony with the land. They “lived light on the land”. Many tribes traveled from place to place depending on the food sources, weather and other conditions. They traveled with their homes and all of their earthly belongings. They respected the earth and had only what they could use.

I can safely say as a professional organizer that the majority of us “live heavy on the land”. We have homes we chuck full of things. Often these are things that have no meaning for us or things we once loved but no longer care about. Or we have collected too many things for the space we have and the clutter becomes overwhelming often causing anxiety and depression. Then we are concerned about organizing clutter that we have created and allowed to live with us. This can hold us back from doing things we really want to be doing. We start feeling stuck and burdened with things that once brought us joy because we have too much stuff—and it is just stuff.

If you would like to start “living light” here are five tried and true steps to organizing clutter:

1. Go room by room and decide what is working for you and what isn’t working for you. Evaluate if you use the item, if you like it, if someone else would enjoy it more, if it is just a dust collector. If it doesn’t light you up and you don’t enjoy it, it is time to let go.

How to make a killer business presentations

Business presentations can be one of your best tools to land a new client.  You do not want to have to deal with a client who does not know enough about your business or is not able to relate to you.  Using a business presentation can give your clients images, graphs, and text that will be able to tell them why they should pick your company.

The first thing that you need to do in order to have a killer business presentation is to be neat.  Having an organized presentation can be one of the best tools that you use.  People like clean, easy to read slides that will help them get the information that they need out of the presentation.  Even though the economy has gone down the tubes, you do not have to compromise on the quality of your business presentation.  The second step that you need to make sure you do in your presentation is to include an easy to read title slide.  Your title slide will allow your clients to learn your name, business name and have a good first impression of your business.  A title slide should not include any flashy graphics other than your business logo.

The next step in your business presentation is to prepare your client for your pitch.  In this step, give them a few succinct slides that provide your client with the basic information about your business.  Give them a picture, and a few short bullets to provide this information.  As in any other presentation, do not print sentences on your slides!  Sentences belong on handouts, not on the screen.  After you have convinced your client that your business is legitimate and is a good choice for them, it is time to move on.
