In today's fast paced environment we are faced with both electronic and paper files. At one time, we thought we would enter the era of the paperless office. Instead, we have been inundated with more paper than ever before!

There are methods to handle the overwhelming burden of incoming paper and record keeping documents. But first, let's examine what most of us have at home - the file cabinet. Each 4 drawer file cabinet holds 18,000 sheets of paper. Only 20% of that gets used leaving about 14,000 sheets never to be looked at again. Yet, we do have to go through those files in order to get to what we want!

The first thing we need to do is open all our incoming mail over the trash can. Immediately rip and toss anything that is blatant advertising or junk. After that's done, you will be left with bills,letters/cards to read,financial statements,catalogs,coupons and event notices.

The first thing you will want to do is to have a designated place for "bills to be paid". Create a safe place for them and after you pay them develop a method of storing the receipts. Create a master file for "Bills" and then create sub-categories for each one. Doing this will make filing easy. You will not be searching through the 4 drawers of the filing cabinet for the alphabetical listing of each bill. By alphabetizing all your bills under the major category "Bills" they will all be in the same file drawer and within easy reach. Place most recent receipts in the front of the file in order to make them easier to find.
