The Organized Writer's Six Rules

Here are the six rules of every organized writer....

1.  Work with Yourself, Not Against Yourself
Understand your personality and what works for you.  Do what feels right and what appeals to you—not what seems to “be organized.”

2. Focus and Pay Attention 
When possible, do one thing at a time. Do not let your mind wander. Picture the goal in your mind, and focus on it.

3. Invest Your Time 
Pay attention to how you spend your time. Saving just 20 minutes each day gives you an extra 120 hours each year. Strive to improve the time it takes to complete a project. Be willing to invest a block of time if it will save you hours of frustration later.

4. Create Habits
You can create a new habit (or lose a bad habit!) in 21 days. For only three weeks of effort, you can create a lifetime of  good habits.

5.  Use the Right Tools
Make sure you have the right tools handy when you need them.

6.  Work Forward
Organize for your work ahead.  Don't organize what's already finished. You want to save time by going forward not just reorganize what you already have.

"The information in The Organized Writer will help you maximize your space and time – and preserve your sanity....Although it is difficult to form new habits and even the idea of 'getting organized' can seem painful, this book makes it sound almost, well…fun. Give it a try!"
