What have you made simpler lately?

For the next Productivity & Organizing Blog Carnival, I’m looking for ways to simplify the things that take up our time, energy, and attention.

You might write about a change you’ve made in your own life or business, a strategy you recommend to clients, a simple approach to an organizing challenge, or practical ideas for making something less complicated.

For example, you could write about:

• Eliminating unnecessary steps from a process
• Simplifying a home or office organizing project
• Making digital files, email, or other technology easier to manage
• Rethinking routines, systems, or habits
• Helping clients simplify their spaces, schedules, or businesses
• A tool or technique that makes an everyday task easier
• Knowing what to stop doing, delegate, or let go of

The change can be big or small. The important thing is to share something that might help someone else to simplify everything.
