 A Quick Thought On Being Organized In Today's Society
My husband walked into the house last night with a sheepish grin on his face. I knew he was up to something. He stated that he got a new toy and asked if I wanted to see it. As he reached into his briefcase I thought to myself "Please, don't let it be!" and sure enough, he pulled out a brand spanking new….BLACKBERRY!
After a small discussion that started with "I can't believe you succumbed to THIS!" I realized that his argument was understandable. After being on several trips with him, either for business or for pleasure, the mere possibility of him not being able to access his email on a daily basis was an aggravation on its own. There would be the constant words "I can't believe this stupid thing isn't working!" It would be hard for him to communicate while he was traveling. With a trip coming up in the near future, Brad thought he would give this a shot.
This whole thing reminded me of a "discussion" I had at one point or another with my friend Beth. We live in such an "immediate" society. Faxes are too slow now, and using the post office seems out of the question! What will happen in the future? Will fax machines be obsolete? And what about the post office? Will we see them all close down one by one? And what's next on the horizon?
To me, this is just another confirmation that in today's society it's important to keep yourself organized. Whether you're a busy professional or a stay-at-home mom. With life's immediate responses needed, it's hard to keep up the pace if you're not organized.
Well, something to think about until I see you next week! In the meantime, don't forget to check out my website at www.clutterdoctor.com.
