And I’m really good at it. But it takes too much energy, which tells me it’s not natural and I had to teach myself how to do it. And if it’s MY desk or table or room and nobody’s paying me… let the chaos reign.

I love your declaration to sit with a partial revelation. You’re following your usual organizing strategy, yes? Breaking something into pieces and taking on one piece at a time? Like, say, 365 pieces, and one piece per day?

Merci beaucoup !!!
And a secret shared… deserves one in return… 🙂

“A Secret Kept” by Tatiana de Rosnay
… author of “Sarah’s Key” & ‘”The House I Loved”
…available in French… s’il vous plait!?

Yes… I’ve read all three. Paris inspired me so!
Might you have read any of Tatiana’s ‘books’?

I laughed when I first read YOU”RE HIRED : ) And I’ll share one of my secrets: break whatever it is into small steps, into some little piece you can accomplish each day. So instead of thinking of it as a 100 books to go through, think of it as 10 books a day for 10 days. At the end of each day, you have something to check off your list and then one day, voila, you’re finished!

Yes… One journey. OUR journey.

‘from saudi with love’… was born of that well worn expression:
“From (fill in the blank) with Love”…
and has become my trademark signature… ~;)

Furthermore:
YOU’RE HIRED! appears to be in keeping with your…
highly regarded trademark… “Making order out of disorder…”

P.S.
I am duly encouraged to face the overwhelm… using your tactic:
“…I just take a deep breath. I know there is order to be had.” !!!

You might be on to something… more than one thing perhaps : )
