The better question is…do I have any areas of clutter in my life. The answer is Yes. I have 3 areas of clutter - my email spam folder, my phone that gets random calls all day long and lastly catalogs that come daily in the mail. Well I finally decided to practice what I preach and tackle these areas.
Email…if you are like me and you have purchased items on line well then you get lots of emails. The problem with that is those emails land in my spam folder along with emails from potential customers. In a nut shell, every day I have to weed through the junk mail for the possibility of finding a potential work email…aka I could be missing out on money in the bank! Thankfully there is any easy solution to this. For the past week I have sifted through each email to either unsubscribe (found at the bottom of each email) or to block any spam email. In just 5 days time, spending about 10 minutes each session, I have reduced the incoming mail by 90 percent! Now when I open this folder and I see a new notice, chances are that email means a new client!
Phone calls..this, like the email can also be tricky as not answering an unidentified number means I may not be getting a call from a potential client. I have now taken on answering those calls to say "take me off your list" or if it is a robot call to block the number. Thank you Blood Centers of the Pacific for being so diligent to reach out every week but seriously I don't have that much blood to donate…take me off your list, please!
Catalogs…the last of my challenge. I have not yet tackled it but starting today when those catalogs begin to arrive in the mail I can start taking my name off those lists as well. Besides reducing the amount of mail I can also say I am doing something for the environment!
Until next time, happy organizing.
