Around this time of year
in North America,
‘experts’ are advising
to clean your house.
Declutter it.
Organize it.
This allows us
to live more effectively,
more easily,
more comfortably.
For business builders,
spring cleaning
our email systems,
our bookmarks,
our to-do lists
can allow us
to work more effectively.
Look at your bookmarks,
for example.
Bookmarks exist
to allow us
to find information
more easily.
That won’t happen
if our bookmarks
are thousands of links
long.
Are all of your bookmarks still needed?
Can you create files
to better organize them?
Are you missing bookmarks?
I do the same thing
every so often
with my emails.
Spring clean
your systems.
Ensure they still work
for you.
