How does Helen track her to-dos, time, and goals, while helping others do the same? She created the Born Organized® To-Do ManualTM, and since it's her vehicle to an orderly, productive, fulfilled life, she now teaches its concept to clients.

The Born Organized To-Do ManualTM helps you know what "to do" with your day -- and your life! Helen personally teaches you how to incorporate to-dos, priorities, who you need to contact, who you're waiting to hear from, delegation, deadlines, appointments, checklists, projects, and goals all in one book.

When you hire Helen for your first three-hour "To-Do ManualTM Session" the materials are free of charge. You receive a 7 x 9 loose-leaf binder, categorized tab dividers, blank set of tab dividers, package of refill paper, labels, weekly calendar, marker, pen, and instructions. (A twenty-five dollar value)

Since the To-Do ManualTM is a challenging learning process to strategize your life, additional session time is recommended to optimize and tweak how you use your manual.

Tip: No matter how many to-dos you have on your list, before you tackle a new one, always ask youself: Do I need to do this now? If the answer is "no," move on to what you need to do.
Analyzing your time
Poof! Where did your day go? If you're not aware of how you spend your time, it's easily squandered.

Helen shows you how to track everything from interruptions to the amount of time you spend on every activity throughout your day. It pinpoints who and what are the time-eaters in your life, so Helen can develop a plan to help you make positive time choices.

Tip: The next task you begin, don't allow anything to sidetrack you until you are finished. Keep repeating to yourself: Complete the task; complete the task.
Working productively
Did you know that the average person spends 150 hours a year hunting down misplaced information? That's almost six weeks! And do you juggle unfinished work, take on more than you can handle, and become totally confused about what to do next?

Helen not only helps you organize your information so that you'll have access to it when you need it, she'll help you cope with competing priorities, identify where you're spreading yourself too thin and help you work smarter not harder.

Tip: By grouping activities, you can get more done in less time.
