Getting Organized for the Greater Good: This New Year, Spread the JOYS of Organization

After an ah-ha moment about the far-reaching impact of her disarray, Catherine Anderson created the JOYS organizational system, a color-coded household notebook and filing system that just might encourage people to finally get their lives in order this new year-if not for themselves, then for the ones they love...maybe.

Germantown, MD, November 13, 2006-With its no-nonsense name and color-coded organizational system so thorough that failure is not an option, Just Organize Your Stuff : JOYS may very well be the system to convert procrastinators and pile-pushers into now-or-never neatniks. After all, existing in a state of chaos is a little tougher when you realize the implications reach beyond your home, which was exactly what inspired JOYS founder, Catherine Anderson.

Because her house was in chaos, Anderson realized she was making nearly all of her life’s decisions because they were convenient rather than informed-from what to eat for dinner to which investment plan to choose to which candidates to elect. Emotionally, physically and financially drained, and unable to clear through the clutter, Anderson searched for an organizational product that could help her bring balance to her life. When she could find none comprehensive enough, the former graphic designer decided to research and create her own system.

Intuitive, visual and flexible, the JOYS household notebook and filing system includes a multitude of subjects organized around five broad categories: "everyday" (symbolized by the color aqua and the gingko leaf for memory, because everyday is about making memories), "wealth" (green; piggy bank), "wellness" (orange; heart), "home" (purple; house), and "interests" (yellow; smiley face) as well as a catch-all "important" (red; asterisk) category. With cross-categorizing options, a seamless file to notebook "interface," downloadable worksheets and supplements available, the JOYS system succeeds in organizing lives because it takes into consideration every aspect of living. The family supplement even takes into consideration kids’ personal characteristic, daily routines, finances, medical history, as well as school and camp attendance and obligations, making the JOYS notebook the ultimate family reference book.

Since creating her organizational system, Anderson no longer feels that she is spreading the contagion of her chaos; instead she is spreading the JOYS of organization. "Not only can I find what I need, I finally feel like I’m able to enjoy every day, instead of just trying to get through it."

JOYS organizational system, which includes a household notebook ($79), home filing system ($30) and family supplemental system ($25), is exclusively available at www.justorganizeyourstuff.com. JOYS believes that getting organized should be simple, inspirational, and colorful.
