my motivation (where is it?)

I really want to tidy up my room before I leave town on Friday for Boston (going back east for another wedding and this time I’ll actually get to see Boston instead of just drive by it in frustration). Here it is, practically Thursday and it’s still a mess. I don’t know why it’s so hard to keep my desk organized. I watch those HGTV shows where they help people tidy up and become organized and wonder if I can do it, too. And I do, for about a week, until I fall back into my old habits of just stacking everything on my desk. Maybe I will be magically motivated tomorrow to do everything I want to do before I go away. Maybe if I had more of those letter stack things I could be more organized. Maybe, maybe. Hmm.

    You should try the RAFT System! You do the first cleanup with four paper piles: Read, Act, File, Trash. Then once you get it all clean, that’s how you sort stuff until you get to it. I watch too much TV.
