Saying No - Professional Organizers Blog Carnival

Whether people are “too busy” or have “too much stuff,” professional organizers and productivity consultants understand that many of life’s aggravations could be lessened by saying No.

Saying Yes too often – to themselves while shopping, to those who offer them things they really don’t need, or to others when they overcommit their time – can lead to clutter, overspending, stress, and many other challenges.

For this edition of the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival,  I invited my readers to share what they’ve written on the subject of Saying No.

A former professional organizer, I now eliminate stress for my clients by hosting, monitoring, and maintaining their WordPress sites so they don’t have to worry about security, downtime or performance issues. When I’m away from my desk, I enjoy reading, photography, watching movies, and cooking.
