this post reminds me about some points i leared in lean management about organizing your business. It makes it easier to find things, makes your business more efficient and makes everything run better overall.
I love these points because organization is something people often forget the importance of.
I needed this… thank you! Organization is the first thing you must do before you hope to accomplish anything. Then again, you may be able to accomplish your designated task in a messy environment… but chances are you will be much more efficient and effective in a organized environment.
As a naturally unorganized person who college has forced to be organized I definitely agree with this. It is so important, things fall through the cracks so easily without organization.
