Getting Organized Feels Good

Nov 16, 2008 2 Comments

Over the past couple months it’s been a bit crazy the amount of things that have been on my schedule. I don’t recall being this popular… ever. It seems that 4 or 5 nights a week we have plans to go out for one reason or another. Between the 3 meetup groups I’m part of, concerts or just an evening out with friends, it was really getting to be a bit much. That’s partially because I would never write anything down and we’d always end up scrambling to make it somewhere, or worse, we’d be double-booked for the same evening.

Until: iPhone to the rescue!

OK, at the risk of sounding like a fanboy, I have to say that the iPhone has really been the start of me getting some fecal cohesion. Any time ANY sort of appointment comes up, I quickly add it to my calendar. My iPhone calendar has become “the boss of me.” I don’t agree to anything until I check and see if I already have something planned at that time.

I feel like I’m late to the party. Like everybody else around me has been doing this for years and it’s just dawning on me to get organized. But seriously, I never really realized how unorganized I was until just recently. They say ignorance is bliss, so I must have been on cloud 9.

Now, if I could just organize my desk at home and keep it that way, I’ll really be on to something!
