Start on Your Organizing Project

Saturday, July 31st, 2010

Yes it is that time of year, Spring is here.  It is a great time to lighten your load, reduce stress and shed items you don’t need or want.  Start with the most troubling area in your home.  It might be your living room, dining table or even your bedroom closet.  First set up several boxes or bins to receive your items as you begin to evaluate each item.  Label the boxes or bins as follows 1) Donate, 2) Discard, 3) Give Back to Owner (borrowed stuff), 4) SELL (my favorite), & 5) Keep- you probably need to subdivide Keep into specific categories, ie clothing, paper, books, magazines, CD’S and any other group that you have a lot of items that you will keep.

Control of Project Cash Flows

The development of information for the control of project costs with respect to the various functional activities appearing in the project budget.

The rest of POME describes the management issues for each of these assets.
