Help for getting organized right now

I just sent out a PRWeb news release on getting organized. The news release can be found here
http://www.prweb.com/releases/2009/08/prweb2721114.htm. Yes, I am an organizing enthusiast! There is no better time to start than right now! Today is better than tomorrow. Let's start with who am I to talk about organization? I have been an organizer since before college. I love anything related to organizing. I organize all kinds of things from business to personal. I am committed to organizing because I realized more than 30 years ago that being organized brings with it huge benefits. When I graduated from Penn State the girls on my dorm floor roasted me and one of the big things that they teased me about was how organized I was. "Lisa has lists of her lists of her lists" said one floor mate as she dropped down a cascade of fan fold paper. Younger people probably won't even know what fan fold paper is - yes, it was that many years ago. I have what is known as MASTERY in the area of being organized, organizing and helping people get organized. It is part of who I am as a person after more than 3 decades.

As with any new venture, becoming organized or getting organized starts with a firm commitment. It is not likely that you will go from being disorganized to organized without a solid commitment. Why bother some people say. The why bother is because being organized carries with it significant benefits that will be financially rewarding to you. The major benefits include saving you TIME and MONEY. Who isn't interested in having more free time and more money? Being organized also increases your productivity and efficiency, which results in savings of more time and money. There is also the intangible result of freedom and power. Doubt what I'm saying? Then go clean out your messy car or clear off your desk and see how you feel the next time you get in your car or sit at your desk. It is amazing.

It takes discipline once an area is cleaned up and organized to maintain the new level of neatness. How organized are you? Are you willing to start? What can I do to entice you to start organizing one small area of your home, office, car or life? I'd love to know. You can leave a question or comment here on my blog. Now, get busy and start. I have a tip sheet loaded on my cookbook website, www.TheSuperAllergyCookbook.com under the "Resources" tab filed under "White Papers, tips sheets & Videos", which you can download for free. That should help you get started. You can also watch the short youtube video. I have to learn how to embed it into this blog, so for now you can watch it on my website or youtube. Yes, I am learning technology one day at a time.
Love,
Lisa

Welcome to The Rooster Crows™ - Waking People Up to their Full Potential

Welcome to my new blog: The Rooster Crows™, which also happens to be the name of my business.  This blog is all about waking individuals and businesses up to their full potential on a wide range of business topics from time management and organization to motivation and inspiration.  I'll also be blogging about public relations and publicity and technology and many other related topics.  What is exciting to me is that this new blog represents a leap in my technological skills.  I have been blogging for two years. What I have never done up until now is create my own blog from scratch.  My other blog is about food, health, food allergies, celiac disease and other cooking and baking topics.  You can find my first blog, which I am still actively updating at:  www.TheSuperAllergyCookbook.com

I'm working on bringing up a new website under the same name.  How are your technical skills?  Are you blogging, on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter?  Are you swimming in a swirl of technical terms and feeling like you need some air?  I am learning and growing in this area although it seems like slow growth to me.  If you are interested in the social networking, blogging and podcasting technical arena, I highly recommend a book by David Meerman Scott called "The New Rules of Marketing & PR" (subtitled: How to use news releases, blogs,podcasting, viral marketing & online media to reach buyers directly).  It is an excellent book that provides a good solid foundation for people who are relatively new to the whole mecca of technology when it comes to business.

With practice anything new will become old hat.  Wax on, wax off.  Practice, practice, practice.  What jobs, tasks, or projects are you avoiding because you lack a skill, a tool or some assistance?  How can I help you?  What do you have to say on this subject?  I'd love to hear what you have to say, and that we create a community to inspire and motivate eachother! 

Love,
Lisa A. Lundy

I'm adding a picture because I think that it helps with the blog.  I'll explain that in more detail later.  Here is a favorite picture of me with my children.  One of a precious few.
