I've got a two year old and I'm hoping that coding is in her future. I like the idea of the brain dump... I always start out projects like the one similar to your office, but I lose incentive about halfway through and it ends up being a mess! Let me know how this goes with you! -Karen Wow, you are so lucky to have such talented and intelligent children! I’ve got a two year old and I’m hoping that coding is in her future.

I get the same therapeutic feelings when I decorate, a nice feeling of renewal. Worth anyone doing similar in my opinion. :D Now to deal with the rest of the midlife crisis...(at least I have an excuse if need be ;)) Rob sheesh more synchronicity for me Lynn. ;)

De-cluttering the office/desk and even the pc files (do I REALLY need 37 Firefox tabs open?) can have a huge effect on me when I'm trying to get stuff done. Hope all is well.

I spent the weekend going through every notebook, scrap piece of paper, and idea that was jotted down sometime over the last 6 months. Here's where I started: http://www.twitpic.com/4x4co -EEK! That's where the million dollar ideas are though ;) I sorted, and then used those notes as the starting point for my master task list. No doubt I need a new "system" ha - but we have to start somewhere, right? I know what you mean, Darren.

Spring is always a great time to do that "spring cleaning" though - and break the routine from the drab winter months. Good luck with your project this morning. Hope that baby has a long peaceful nap for you ;) I’d been feeling the same way Dawnaurora.

I struggle with #5 myself. I love freedom and flexibility, tend to fly by the seat of my pants, but I find I'm more productive with a routine or schedule. I compromise and have a routine for the first 2-3 hours of the day. The rest of the day is MINE for creative freedom :D It makes a huge difference to me – somehow a clear space equals a clear mind.

I think I am going through some burnout and I think it is because of this overload and cluster that surrounds me. I think it is time for a nice old fashion braindump. Baby is sleeping so I had better get a move on. Happy belated Mother's Day Many Blessings, Dawnaurora Great Post!

Once they begin offering internet access on flights - which will be soon - we won't get anything done!

But saw some great content here. Thanks for the valuable info. For me, step #2 is the biggie - organization. After "fighting battle" with the workload for the entire week, the work space can be a mess! But some little things lying around may still be useful. So the key is to get organized and use all those seemingly useless pieces of info lying around - scraps of paper with notes scribbled on it, etc, etc. Darren chow Hi Lynn, I’m new to your blog.
