2018 Goals

I'm using a combination of 3 methods to work on some personal goals this year.


  1. I'm using the Totally Tiffany Get Organized Challenge to make my studio a bliss station
  2. I'm using David Allens Get Things Done and Alan Henry has an awesome lifehacker post simplifying Davids method. Ive wanted to start the 43 folder organizing system for quite some time.Maybe its time
  3. Marie Kondos Konmari method will hopefully help me organize my life better
So my commitments in my regular composition notebook I use as a journal look like this;

  1. Financial Health
  2. Getting Closer to God
  3. Cleaning and Organizing my Studio
  4. Develop Healthy Habits 
  5. Improving My Professional Skill Set

Totally Tiffany 2018 Organization Challenge

I started the Totally Tiffany 2018 Organization Challenge several weeks ago. I had a false start after not really embracing all of her ideas and after I completely fell off the wagon for 2 weeks, I've decided to get back on board by starting from the beginning.

One of the concepts is to post your progress and since I cant figure out where to post it on her site, Im doing it here so I can check it off my list.

Here's what I've done previously;


    1. Watched TT Week One Get Organized Video
    2. Learn the 4 section system
    3. Prepare to Purge
    4. Bought 12x12 vertical paper storage
    5. Sorted all my cardstock and organized it into the above boxes in ROYGBIV
    6. Sorted 75% of my designer paper and put it into (what I can fit, there is still a lot left) into the above boxes by ROYGBIV
    7. Donated some stuff to the Champlin - Buy Nothing Facebook page (CTMH ink pads, ink pad holders, Stampin Up catalogs, paper crafting magazines)

    Here's what I've done in the last week;

    1. Watched TT Week One Get Organized Video
    2. Created my Get Organized Notebook with all the things I learn
    3. Created my What Did You Do Today notebook
    4. Create my Rewards chart
    5. Create my Themes and Sentiments list
    6. Prepare to Purge (again)
    7. Find a permanent purge box
    8. Find my locations to donate
    Here is what I still need to do to get my reward;
    1. Gather all my stuff from three rooms into my studio
    2. Create an organized only space
    3. Take some more before pictures after I get everything in the room

    My reward for this week will be to buy 2 new outfits
