    Do You Have Too Much Paper Clutter in Your Home Office?

    96902594_mqbx5s One of the problems that I have in my home office is that the paper clutter tends to stack up. I mean really stack up. You get a file, or a paper, or a report and add it to the pile. Sometimes you just shuffle things from one pile to another, or from one area of your home office to another.

    Over at MyOrganizedBiz, Jennifer Hoffman offers a suggestion: Make sure you keep an expiration date on your files. The idea is to keep your paper flowing through your home office, rather than stopping there and gathering dust.

    I'm thinking that setting a certain time each day to look at your files and Get Things Done. Or, at least go through your piles once a week. The idea is to keep paper clutter to a minimum, and make sure that you address what's in the files.

    It seems that paper just appears out of nowhere. That's a good idea with the expiration date. Just like rotating your pantry closet.
