Tips for Paper Clutter

• Feed the wastebasket
  
• Get rid of what you don't need
  
• Skim material as soon as it arrives
  
• Don't even skim junk mail; just toss it

• Pass on to the appropriate person any papers someone else can handle
  
• Find a place for everything worth keeping and put the papers where they belong
  
• Realize the world won't end if you get rid of it
  
• Recycle it
  
• Ask yourself: Do you really want to be caretaker of this paper? Do you really want to devote precious space to this?
  
• Handle each piece of paper only once
  
• Get rid of it
