Have you recently searched for a digital document ..... for too long? Do you have folders and ways to separate your digital files? Do you have duplicates of digital documents or files?
In this ever increasing digital age, we are just as likely to have a "stack of papers" hiding in digital format. You've seen it, the unending list of files that you have to scan over and over to find the one you're looking for. The bonus is that you can sort them by alphabetical or date, but it can still get to be a long list. Taking control of your digital files is just as important as managing your paper files. Joyfully,

Day Way # 21 Spend 20 - 30 minutes cleaning up your digital files/documents.
*Make sure you have folders with consistent names
*Put files into appropriate folders
*Check for duplicate files
*Delete unnecessary files
GOOD NEWS! Studies show that it is 10-15% easier to retrieve a digital file than a paper file. Keeping your digital world organized can maintain or even increase that percentage! Easier is good!
The last comment about digital files is that you MUST back up your digital information! Set a schedule or pattern to back up your information if you don't have an automatic backup system in place.
