Get Your Systems in Place

I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts you have some systems in place that work so well you don't even know you have them. Maybe it's the way you have your Tupperware arranged in the kitchen so you don't spend precious minutes looking for the lid that matches the container. Perhaps it's the way your makeup is organized in the bathroom, so your hand automatically reaches for what's next. It may be the way you handle your morning review at the office.

Whatever, everybody has some systems that work. What I've been trying to do is think about all the actions that are required of me every day. How can I improve my systems so the have-to-do items flow automatically? I'm convinced it just takes some concentrated thinking to figure this out.

What are your systems?
