Collecting your thoughts helps you stay focused on your goals. Let’s set up a Simplification Binder to collect your thoughts. The current series of articles in this newsletter includes information that may trigger ideas and solutions for your situation. Organizing these discoveries and thoughts in a simplification binder creates a toolbox to support you on your simplification journey

1. Start with a three-ring binder. Separate sections with dividers. (Try Post-its on a blank page. This simple method makes it easy to make new sections on the fly.)
2. You may want sections for:
-blank paper to explore thoughts in a journal writing style
-articles, tools and/or tips that particularly speak to you
-worksheets
3. Label the spine of your binder with a descriptive title such as “Simplify!”

Make sure you keep your binder nearby, so it’s handy when you need it to be. (Like when reading The Simplifier.)
