Liz Davenport knows chaos. She lived the life of a disorganized office worker for years until the stress of lost papers and missed deadlines became too much. As a completely disorganized person, she knew the elaborate advice given in organization books would never bear the test of her workday and patience. So she sat down and developed a simple, pragmatic plan for order, a plan that changed her life. She now tours the country teaching other lost, disorganized souls her revolutionary plan for success.This book is different than all the other organizing books out there because of one thing: It's easy! In six straightforward steps Liz guts our desk, teaches us what's trash and why it's trash, how to organize the rest of it (and keep it that way), and tells us what a calendar is really meant to be. (By the way, to-do lists, in boxes, flurries of post-it notes, a palm pilot, day planner and desktop scribblings do not count as calendars.)Rather than offering complicated instructions for filing systems and time management "Order from Chaos" speaks simply and directly to the problem -- your mess -- and what exactly you can do about it.Davenport, Liz is the author of 'Order from Chaos A Six-Step Plan for Organizing Yourself, Your Office, and Your Life', published 2001 under ISBN 9780609807774 and ISBN 0609807773.
