...continued from yesterday's issue

Yesterday, I shared the first 5 touchdown organizing tips that can be used in your daily life to help you get more organized. Here are the final five.

6. Pass the ball. A quarterback knows that he can't get the touchdowns by himself. He must pass the ball to other players. In other words, he delegates the task. What are you doing on your own, that can be delegated to someone else in your home, or your office? Can you delegate to an outside source? Is it possible to delegate a manual task you're doing to a computer, or to another piece of equipment?

7. Take some time-outs. Time-outs are periods during the football game that stop the game clock and allow players to rest and/or go over plays with the coach. Sometimes, it's necessary for you to take some 'time outs' in your day. These are best taken when you're feeling overwhelmed, or when something is distracting you or when you simply need a break. A 5 to 15 minute time-out can help you to clear your mind and rejuvenate your energy. Take a quick walk. Take a short nap. Call a friend and release some of your stress. Enjoy a healthy snack. Do whatever is necessary for you to return to your task feeling refreshed.

8. Get yourself a cup of motivation. It can be depressing to work on something that you don't feel motivated about. Football players rely on fans to keep them motivated and enthusiastic. Get your own cheering section. Tell a friend you're trying to get organized, and ask her to encourage you. Tell a family member what you're trying to accomplish. Ask him to coach you and cheer you on along the way. Seek some help and motivation with other like-minded people, such as one of my organizing Facebook groups. When other people are involved in your goals and accomplishments, it gives you a good reason to excel.

9. Have a vision. Football players have a very clear vision at the beginning of the year, of what they want to achieve. A common shared vision is making it to the Super Bowl and winning the game. What is your vision? Do you want an organized office? Perhaps you might find a magazine photo of an organized office that you tear out and post on your bulletin board. Now you have something to strive towards every day. Maybe you might know someone who manages her time very well. You might post a photo, or something that reminds you of that person, where you can see it every day. This will give you a vision, and a daily reminder to achieve that vision.

10. Celebrate your wins. Every time a touchdown occurs in football, the players celebrate that accomplishment. When a team wins the Super Bowl, there's a major celebration. Celebrate the wins in your life. Designate some rewards for accomplishing your mini-goals. They don't have to be expensive rewards. They can be as simple as watching your favorite movie tonight, or going window- shopping in the mall, or having a cup of hot cocoa by the fireplace. And when you accomplish some major goals, have a big celebration. You deserve to have some fun after all your hard work!
