Where's My Keys?

Start Here 2

Just think about this possible situation:

What if you misplace your car keys 3 times in a year and you spend 30 minutes each time looking for them?

That’s 90 minutes a year.


Where's the TV Remote?

Start Here 3

What if you can’t find the TV remote once a week and spend 5 minutes each time looking for it? 5 X 52 = 260 minutes a year!

In a year, that's 90 minutes a year looking for your car keys, and 260 minutes a year looking for the TV remote! That adds up to 350 minutes each year, or almost 6 hours!

That’s 6 hours of your precious life that you can’t get back.

That’s 6 hours you could have spent playing a round of golf or a set of tennis. You could have had dinner enjoying time with your family or friends or pursuing your favorite hobby!

Need more proof? Take those 6 hours and multiply that by your hourly wage.  See how much money you could have saved by being more organized!

Did you know that the words organizing and organic come from the same root word (bet you didn't think about that)!
