i like this – very simple and to the point. I know I need to clean up my filing system, but my to-do lists are organized separately.
FILE
Find
It
Later
Easily.
Thats why we do what we do.
Works for me.
Filing has become one of my worst nightmares!!!
I really need a method and system to keep up with all the info coming into my “inbox”.
I dont know if I suffer from not wanting anything pass by, but find it overwhelming to put information somewhere I can retreive it fast!
Does anyone have any suggestion on Filing Specifically? I´ve tried evernote with C+ results would say. Gamil has worked beter, not only because I have it more at ahnad, but also because the search engine by Google is great.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
