10/06/2005 - Paper pilers, packrats and messy artists, unite! Two recent additions to the overflow of clutter-busting books say that creative right-brained people -- long scorned by their more linear, neat, left-brained peers -- can be organized, too.

12/07/2002 - As a Professional Organizer, I encounter a variety of challenges in my job. Whether it's some strategic planning in figuring out what the next logical organizing step is, or even a nod in agreement when my clients decide to purge an item or two, decisiveness is a key element in becoming organized. Without it, you can't even begin!

Profile: Lanna Nakone Actress Turned Organizeer

She took him up on the offer, and although she had been accepted in a PhD program at Montreal's McGill University, she had so much fun from the commercial that she decided on an acting career instead, not realizing it was just another step on the way to her real career.
