Feeling Overwhelmed and Unorganized? ? Using Index Cards to set ...

Are you still searching for the perfect organizing tool?
Can be your Filofax too bulky and heavy to fit in your purse and carry along with you?
Tried a Palm or other Handheld and found it awkward to work with when you?re on the run?

Ta Da!! ? Try simple 3?5 silvine record cards, you know the litle ones you employ for kitchen recipes.

Why? These are affordable, easy to find and they fit in your pocket or purse. These come in pretty colors so you can code your projects by color.
e.g. one to a family event, Work, Personal Goals, Home Projects, Hobbies/Crafts etc. Note: If you cannot find coloured ones, make use of a coloured marker to stipulate around the outer edge of the card . This is enough that will help you quickly sort them into groups if you need to.

Here are some examples of how they are utilized. (I use one per project but you can combine up to you want onto one card)

Daily List

Grocery Lists

Personal Goals ? one for weekly, daily, monthly yearly, life goals
Your daily life Mission Statement

Favourite Prayers

Listing of Books on your Wish List to buy (or those that you would like to read/look for at the library etc.)

To write down your Hot Ideas if you are on the run.

Record notes from books and meetings.

Phone Calls ? work, business, personal etc ? jot the phone number down too and that means you don?t need to look it up before you call.

Keep some blank ones in the bank, purse, car, from your bed to record dreams, ideas that wake you up during the night.
Keep a stack through the computer to keep tabs on your passwords, favourite sites and keyboard shortcuts.

Examples:

We?ve one with my Credit Card Balance and I record any new purchases onto it as I make them so i could check off the transaction when my payment arrives at month end.

Right this moment I am in the process of starting a new Bank Account i have made a list of each of the utility bills that we pay by automatic payment from the old account and that we now need to notify individuals new account data. We?ve this all on one card which enable it to check off every one as I complete it. Which has a separate card with this project, I feel organized and will see immediately, how long along I am in this process. When I complete the project, out goes the credit card.

Oh, and by the way, don?t forget to use them to record your favourite cooking recipes

I?ve a little plastic folding protection for my cards with two flaps inside that hold them from to fall out. I picked up at my stationary store and it protects my cards from getting bent and away from order in my purse. This is not necessary
as you can just pop them in a bag but it is handy for me. My daily List is always on the top so I can just flip the cover open and see my list.

I?d personally love to hear from people who already use index cards to be organized. If you try them the first time after reading this article,I?d love to hear where did they work for you.
