Below is an extract of the eBook Time Stretching Tips by Madeline Frazier

Paper
Have you realized what the piles of paper on your desk and elsewhere are costing
you? Do you waste time trying to find something you had yesterday?

The biggest shock might come from this little exercise. Sort the papers in a pile
according to how much time is required to deal with them. You probably will find
some you can permanently discard as you go through.

Handle It Once.
This one rule will save you time and money every day for the rest of your active life.
Every piece of paper which you have to go back to will cost you extra time for
reviewing the content as well as the time required to deal with it.

Ask these questions of each piece of paper which you handle in your next work
session:

1. Is it necessary?
Some people will eliminate 20% of all the paper sent to them immediately. Notify
whoever sent it they don’t need to send it to you in future.

2. Do I need to do anything with it?
If not, direct it to the proper person and ensure that the sender sends it direct to
them from now on. Cross yourself off any distribution lists on material which you don’
t have any interest in or cannot provide useful input to. If you do, try to deal with it
now. Can you just write an answer to the comments in it and send the original sheet
back to the sender, saving paper and time?

3. Do I need to see it again?
If you don’t, don’t make copies or file it unless it’s an accounting or legal
requirement. If you need to, then do it today, if not right away.

4. Do I need to follow up with it?
Make a note now in your diary/on your whiteboard, as appropriate, who to follow up
with and when.

Your Desktop
If you haven’t got space to do your current work, cut yourself an urgent 30 minutes
to an hour and reclaim your desk-top.

Is your desk clean, cluttered or “organized but crowded” as a friend described his
home office to me the other day? If you’re among those with a clean desk that can
find the right piece of paper or computer file in short order, well done.

For those readers with their very own Mt Everest on their desks, even before they
open today’s mail, here are some pointers to that happy state.
Remove every piece of paper from your desk which is not connected with your most
current projects. If you can, deal with them as soon as possible after you’ve sorted
the ‘mountain’ in the way I outlined earlier:

  • Respond to it as soon as possible after you’ve sorted the ‘mountain’.
  • Act on it.
  • Delegate it.
  • Discard it – just drop it in your bin.

That will not be easy. Allow yourself a reasonable time to get through the
accumulation and give yourself a drink of water when you finish it.

The 4 step process can eliminate almost all that mountain in one concentrated
session each day.

There should be no food or drink on your desk ever. Coffee and tea are unhealthy
choices but all liquids and crumbs can kill computers as well as looking very
unprofessional. Keep water on a solid side-table and nuts or fruit in a small bowl if
you have the room, or go to the water cooler. The exercise and time away from your
keyboard is good for you too.
