EARLIER THIS YEAR, MISSY STARTED SCHOOL, AND I STARTED DOING FULL DAYS AT THE OFFICE.
Now I'd been warned. My sister had said 'You'll be busier than ever. You think you'll have all this time, but you just won't.' She warned me, and I thought 'Pfft!'.
By week 4 I was an absolute wreck. All I could think of was 'Omg - I have to do this for the next 12 years... and some people have, like two kids... some have four... omg!' (Serious respect to those girls who work full time with kids xx)....

TO DO LISTS CAN BE SO OVERWHELMING. THERE'S JUST SO MUCH TO DO, AND SOMETIMES IT'S HARD TO KNOW WHERE TO START.
I used to struggle with this. There was always too much to do, all of it mattered, and I'd be floundering - running from task to task, trying to figure out what was more important, where to spend my time and what to do first. And really, I got very little...

SOMETIMES IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS WE DO THAT MAKE THE MOST IMPACT - AND YET THEY'RE OFTEN THE THINGS WE PUT OFF OVER AND OVER AGAIN BECAUSE WE'RE TOO BUSY.

TAX TIME IN AUSTRALIA IS OFFICIALLY HERE, AND IT'S TIME TO CLEAN OUT THE PAPERWORK AND GET READY FOR THE NEW FINANCIAL YEAR!
So many people absolutely hate doing paperwork, and it's often because the system they're using is way too complicated.
You don't need 40 different folders. You don't need fancy apps to photograph everything. And you SO don't need fussy little color coding systems....
