Got stacks, piles, pyramids or mounds?

Got stacks, piles, pyramids or mounds?

Earlier this week I heard a recent industry report claiming that 80% of what we keep we do not use. I witness this every time I help someone organize their office or desk — less than 20% of the documents and paperwork within arm’s reach of their chair ever see the light of day again! …

A Joyful Heart is Good Medicine

Just recently, my Bible reading brought me to a verse I’ve read many times throughout the years. Don’t ask me why, but as I read it, a funny thought popped into my mind, so I got up and went to my calculator to validate my thinking. Yes, you heard me right — my calculator! service essay …
