Newcomers are welcome!
12 Minutes to GO (Get Organized) is a way to get a little more organized by
spending 12 minutes each day on a specific task. Anyone can join -- just jump
right in! We’re busy stay-at-home moms, businessmen and women, grandparents,
students, small business owners. Everyone can use a little direction when it
comes to getting, and staying, organized!
Our philosophy is "I may not be where I want to be, but at least I’m better off
than I was 12 minutes ago!" We try to do a little each day, as best we can, and
then move on with our busy lives. Little by little, day by day, our houses
become a little cleaner, our lives become less cluttered and we become
more organized! Though many of us are perfectionists by nature, we try to steer
clear of those tendencies here. The key is to do something each day, and in 12
minutes it’s probably not going to be perfect, but that’s the whole point.
We’re not striving to be perfect, we’re just trying to get a little bit ahead
of the game, and that can bring a great deal of peace to our lives.
So, join in! You can sign up for the daily email with a detailed task for the
day by clicking here, or you can just visit us from time to time when you need
a little direction. We offer a printable weekly task list, and in the near
future will be featuring great tips for cleaning, organizing, cooking and
baking, and (everyone’s favorite) pampering yourself.
Our weeks are organized by having a simple 12-minute task each day. Twice a
week we also have a 30-minute General Cleaning Day; this is time used to sweep,
dust and clean the main living areas of your home. Occasionally we’ll throw in
a “52-pickup” as a daily task – we pick up and put away 52 things that are out
of place in our homes -- and every once in a while we give ourselves the day
off, allowing time for a bubble bath or a pedicure.
We hope you decide to join us! If you have any questions, feedback or
suggestions please email me at Shannon@12minutestoGO.com. |
