#30 Spring Cleaing: Take a Load off Our Drives
I did not have very much on any of the drives to clean up. I deleted duplicate files and made sure all the web reporter lists I have were current. I looked around to see what was on all the drives and found things I did not know were there. My z drive is pretty clean and organized. I do not have many things that need to be saved for extended periods. I have used the S drive before. It is very easy to access and save a file on the s drive. I have always tried to keep files on the computer organized. I found this very helpful when I was in school with many different classes all going on at the same time.
#29 Spring Cleaing: E-mail
I have cleaned up my e-mail account. I have created folders and filed everything that needed to be kept. I have deleted everything that I no longer needed and purged the trash bin. I am usually very good about keeping up with my e-mails. If I receive something, I usually handle it within a few minutes or at the very least, some time later that day. I will now have a place to put things to keep my inbox clear for new items only.
#28 Spring Cleaning
I do not really have an organizational system at this time. I like the GTD method because you can start with little things and work your way up towards total organization. I like the idea of figuring out what needs to be done in what order and doing it quickly. I am a horrible procrastinator. I like the idea of using a "bucket" and emptying it weekly. This would ensure that everything that needs to be done will get done promptly. All the ideas GTD present are good ones and I hope I will be able to start implementing some of them in both my professional and personal life.
I tried the Google Calendar application. I think this could be useful because I can look at it no matter where I am (as long as there is Internet) and see what my future schedule will bring.
