Chapter 1 – Why Get Organized?
If you are like most people today, you feel that you have too little time and too much to do. As a result, you often end up not getting the things done that are needed to be done. And even little things grow into a mountain of work that you feel you can never climb. I used to be very unorganized. On all of my report cards that I received as a kid, the teacher always made that cute little comment “needs to get Organized.” I had a desk that was a mess at school and a room that was a mess at Home. One day, the teacher dumped out everything in my desk on the floor in front of the class and told me to pick it up. I can still feel the sting of that humiliation.
My mother was not as cruel. She would clean my room so that the Board of Health didn’t come in and condemn our house. Both of these people tried to help me get Organized, but neither one of them really helped me at all. My teacher used drastic and humiliating tactics that didn’t work but just made me upset, and my mother did the work for me instead of making me do it myself. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized how to get Organized, why it was so important and how to teach my own children how they could stay Organized as well.
The purpose of this book is not just to tell you how to clean your Home or desk so that everything is where you can find it, but also how to organize your Life so that it is easy to manage and you do not feel overwhelmed. Although I eventually realized that it was much easier to have my important papers at a place that I could find them and the value of having a Home that didn’t look like a pigsty, my mind was unorganized throughout much of my Life. My kids were forever joining activities and I was forever driving them around to different events after school while trying to maintain a job as well as my Home. I often felt like a hamster on a wheel. It wasn t until much later when I learned not only how to organize my Home and work place, but also my mind. This book will teach you how to organize every aspect of your Life from your Home, your work and even your Life. It will also teach you {some|Product Description

Product Description
Arlie Russell Hochschild, author of three New York Times Notable Books, has been one of the freshest and most popular voices in feminist sociology over the last decades. Her influential, unusually perceptive work has opened up new ways of seeing family life, love, gender, the workplace, market transactions–indeed, American life itself. This book gathers some of Hochschild’s most important and most widely read articles in one place, includes new work, and brings several essays to American audiences for the first time. Each chapter reflects on the complex negotiations we make day to day to juggle the conflicting demands of love and work. Taken together, they are a compelling, often startling, look at how our everyday lives are shaped by modern capitalism.
These essays, rich with the details of everyday life, explore larger social issues by looking at a series of intimate moments in people’s lives. Among them, “Love and Gold” investigates the globalization of love by focusing on care workers who leave their own children and elderly to care for children and the elderly in wealthy countries. In “The Commodity Frontier,” Hochschild considers an Internet ad for a “beautiful, smart, hostess, good masseuse–$400/week,” and explores our responses to personal services for hire. In “From the Frying Pan into the Fire” she asks if capitalism is a religion. In addition to these recent essays, several of Hochschild’s important early essays, such as “Inside the Clockwork of Male Careers,” have been revised and updated for this collection.

Since 1957, the massive numbers of women entering the workforce has radically changed the workplace and the ethos of middle-class America. In “Everyday Revolutionaries”, Sally Helgesen explores in detail the lives of professional women in postfeminist America and shows how their choices irrevocably have changed neighborhoods and society as well National author tour. National print ads & publicity.Amazon.com Review
Over the last three decades, the widespread movement of women into the workplace has altered society in extraordinary fashion. Everyday Revolutionaries: Working Women and the Transformation of American Life, by author and lecturer Sally Helgesen, is a detailed examination of this change and how it’s shaping the future. By meticulously analyzing an Illinois “edge city” in the 1990s, and contrasting it to life for William Whyte’s seminal 1950s Organization Man, Helgesen presents an intriguing picture of where things are today–and where they might be headed.

Product Description
“Of all the resources available to people, time is perhaps the most discussed and the least understood. Of the 24 hours in each day, only a limited number is available for the pursuit of business. Thus, time is not the problem, but, rather, what we do with the limited supply we have. We never think of time as a resource and waste it without once thinking that this is one resource which once wasted will never come back.”

Be clear in your goals

How many times it happens that you sit down to work and end up doing practically nothing? This happens because you have no clear goal in your mind about what you have to achieve from your work. This is the problem faced by many women who work from their home. To tackle this problem, we suggest that you sit down to work with a clear goal. Be clear what you want to achieve when you sit down to work. Before you sit down to work, ask yourself: Are you doing what you really want to do with your time? You need to plan a lot and organize your time efficiently while working at home. When you are clear about your goal, you’ll not aimlessly surf the web or re-read the forwarded mails. Also, you must avoid checking your personal mails while you are at work. This will do nothing more then distracting you from your job at hand. You must also evaluate your activities. Are you getting enough returns as compared to the number of hours put in by you? Keep this in mind when you next sit down to plan your next day. Once you know how you are using your time, the subsequent task is to set priorities for what must be done. This result in establishing a daily work plan which helps you utilizes your time effectively.

Make going to the office optional!

Haven’t you ever wished that you didn’t have to waste hours in rush-hour traffic on your commute to the office? Had more time with your kids? Or simply had the luxury to go to work in your pajamas?

Co-produced with USA TODAY, The Work From Home Handbook is an excellent resource for anyone who dreams of a work-from-home career. You can find the option that best suits your personal, financial and professional goals through the book’s systematic, step-by-step advice.

This book shows you how to:

Demonstrate productivity in your home office

If your current employer is inflexible, this book also covers finding a new “beyond the office” job, or becoming an independent contractor.

Filled with solid tips, real-life examples, practical advice and – best of all – inspiration, The Work From Home Handbook can help you transform and achieve a healthy balance in your life and career.

Seventy-nine of Fortune Magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” last year allowed – even encouraged – employees to work from home at least 20 percent of the time. More than two thirds of all American companies offered some telework options in 2005. And the country’s largest employer – the U.S. government – encourages employees to work from home “to the maximum extent possible.” Don’t be left behind. Find out how you can chose this career option for yourself. (20090101)
