According to a USA Today report, Americans waste 9 million hours every day looking for misplaced items. Every time you can't find your keys, you waste energy. Each time you have to shuffle through a stack of papers to find an important document you waste energy. Each time you feel like you'd be embarrassed to have a friend drop by, you are depleting your energy account.
The solution is simple. Get organized. Although it may seem a daunting task, what you'll gain in energy and satisfaction is well worth the initial investment. Julie Morgenstern, the organizational goddess, recommends handling it in small chunks. Start with one room at a time. You've got to start somewhere. It's well worth the effort for the feeling of peace and tranquility that an organized space offers.

Basic Instructions for This Project
We are currently working with The Oculatum
, a brief history of which may be found here.
, a brief history of which may be found here. It is said to offer clarity, strength, and awareness for the attentive reader in his or her daily life. The idea is to pick one phrase each day, say that phrase six times and repeat this action three times during the day. The next day pick a different phrase, again repeating it a total of 18 times. On the seventh day we rest.
At the end of 30 days, we will look to see if it has "worked" and decide we have found new clarity in our lives, new insights, or not. If you'd like to join us, feel free to jump right in.
