The little things that make a difference…

If you were going to cut a good friend’s hair, would you use a pair of dull-ended kid’s scissors? Not likely!

If you had to move a pile of compost from one side of your property to the other, would you use a hand trowel? Of course not!

If you needed to get to a city 200 miles away quickly, would you hop on a moped? I hope not!

And now the biggie:
If you wanted an easily flowing office and all the systems to support you in your work, would you use a 3-hole punch that can barely make it through 4 pages at a time (you know the variety: the low-end, entry level, now-you-can-say-you-have-one, who-in-their-right-mind-would-pay-more-than-$10-for-a-hole-punch)? Apparently!

Could it be a coincidence that the last two organizing clients I’ve had didn’t like putting things in binders because they didn’t like having to punch the paper and it “just so happened” that their 3-hole punches were practically falling apart and on the verge of achieving the designation of “paperweight”? I think not.

Make it easy on yourself!

Maybe it’s not the reminder you need. Maybe you just weren’t thinking simple enough. We talk “systems” and we think, “must be complex, complicated stuff”. Your tools to do the job are part of your systems. Right tools for the job. That’s what sets the Simplifiers apart from the wanna-bes.
