2-Minute Tip: The Tickler File

Written on May 4, 2010 by in 2-10-Minute Tips

It’s Tuesday! Time for a 2-Minute Tip.

Which isn’t actually two minutes, but it sounds better that way, don’t you think?

Which is, of course, why 2-Minute Tips are also posted on Tuesdays. (Though not necessarily every Tuesday. Just sayin’.)

–

Hey, you Creative, you! (Anal-retentive types, you can skip this one; it’s for the rest of us.)

Are you drowning in piles of paper? Do you frequently tear your hair out, because you put a bill or other important document in a pile to be dealt with later, and now you can’t find it?

Here’s a quick tip that might change your life, from David Allen’s book Getting Things Done.

Enjoy!

(And a gold star to anyone who finds the mistake in this video. Hint: space/time continuum.)

Hey, I'm Melissa!

Sandi WedemeierWhen Melissa offered coaching, I jumped at the chance. I gained such HUGE insights! Each time I came up with a reason that I couldn't, she came up with a way that I could. In the end, she gave me an assignment, a realistic and doable one.I'm happy to say that not only was my creativity jumpstarted, but that the love and the joy of creativity is back.

Delisa Carnegie, from the Creativity RebellionIn my time with Melissa, I was re-energized, admitted to the things I need to stop doing, found the things I want to be doing and was given easy actionable steps to get me back in the creative swing of things. Simply amazing! She is full of energy and wonderful ideas.
