My favorite hint on keeping organized is "Just say no". From Zen Habits the list of 27 ways to keep your life organized. Very helpful.
I knew a person who used 3x5 cards - one task per card. Kept the cards in their pocket- could pull them out to make notes on a card as something was done, shuffle the cards to see what could be done quickly, never needed batteries. Could file the cards in a file box to keep track of individual tasks and their history of accomplishment!
A Quick Search in GALILEO for "personal organization" (used quotes to keep it a phrase) pulled up a few articles. Scrolling through the list the one on Closet Makeovers in Research Library struck a nerve. There's a place to make life easier, organize the closet!
And then the article on using empty cereal boxes to organize paperwork......
Getting organized does make life much less stressful.
