If there’s one organizing principle that applies neatly across both the figurative and literal realms, it is this: everything with a place, and everything in its place.
Literally, in your office, in your home. Where you go to get this or that, and where you go to do this or that. The more clear these things are to you, the less time and mental energy you have to waste doing, literally, anything.
Also digitally, where you keep your files and documents matters.
The more consistently and logically you separate things like accounting, clients, projects, marketing assets, education, and so on, the easier and quicker it will be to find something when you need it (without taking shots in the dark using search).
And figuratively, like how you organize your days, weeks, months, and years.
Do you always do deep work in the morning? Do you always answer emails just after lunch? Do you do a month-end review? Do you do quarterly or yearly planning sessions?
If these things have a place in your life, they’re much more likely to happen.
What does this bring up for you? Does it ring true? How do you organize your space, mind, and time? I’d love to hear it, if you want to reply (I could figuratively talk about this stuff all day).
But if you’d rather just think about it, that’s cool too. Obviously.
This is the place and time where I write my name,
James
