Day 25: File everything

Filing your papers properly is a pain sometimes. They tend to accumulate on the desk and it gets pushed aside when you need space. How can be combat this war?

1. Assign a Bookshelf or a filing cabinet for all important papers.



2. Maintain a file for each cause such as: Electricity, Gas, Heating, Car, Bills from shopping, Insurance, Bank, Kids daycare, important certificates(birth, residence,school papers, degrees.. . the list can go one. But its up to you and the type of papers that come in that requires the filing.
3. For me this shelf is in the attic. So when I get the mail containing these documents or important papers it progresses on its movement to the first floor in my file tray designed for "home", "work", "bill paid/action done" tray. After a while when the pile builds up I take it to the attic one day and file them in the appropriate files.

Sort out your papers before they become impossible!
