The truth hurts

Some professionals have the following challenges in their home office…

The desk seems too small and the working space has expanded to the floor for the paper flow.

The filing cabinets are never used for filing, they might be empty, or stuffed with obsolete paper, or other paraphernalia.

The desk is so cluttered with pictures, dishes, clothes and paper that you have branched out to other areas of the home to do work.

Boxes and more boxes are filled with old papers that you are afraid to throw out because you think you may need them someday.

Panicking, not being prepared for business calls because you can't find what you need.

Perpetual lateness for your meetings, interviews and appointments because of dis-organization.

Can't find slips of paper on which they wrote important phone numbers.

They know they received information they sent for, but it's buried in a pile of paper.

Though I used to work exclusively from home, since I've been re-introduced to the non-home-office setting, working at home has becoming increasingly difficult. It's difficult for me to get motivated at home, especially when I only have a short time off, and in that short time off I have to do laundry and clean the house - when did I become my mother? - as well as other freelance projects.

I'm looking forward to the organizational overhaul that I will one day do to my house.
