    For The Discerning Palette With Little Time

    Most organizing experts agree that the best place to start, when
    wanting to get organized, is to start with a small project first.  The sense of completion achieved from actually finishing a small organizational
    project will lead the way to more intensive projects that need this
    emotional fuel of accomplishment.

    Franki, at The Winning Pitch made a nice mention about one of my favorite blogs, OrganizingLA.  She definitely suggests spending some time checking out John Trosko’s tips on creating a perfect world with cool and innovative, organizational ideas.

    "He offers a wide variety of tips that anyone can put to use. The site
    is fresh and fun, and even serves up the occasional nugget on the
    organizing habits of celebs (it is LA, you know). You might even have
    fun while learning. (Dare I say it.)"

    What sets John and his blog apart from the rest? His experience, of course; listening to clients and learning from each one is important for anyone in business. But what really struck me was his commitment to confidentiality and his non-judgmental approach to clients and the services they receive. Not everyone can keep their mouths shut when it comes to other people’s messes.

    Scott Roewer, professional organizer, agrees,"John’s Blog is great!" Scott likes to check in on celebs every once in a while and also enjoys the great products that OrganizingLA has found. And speaking of great products, Franki mentions that while other organizing companies offer cool organizational products, "John keeps introducing us to an even wider variety of vendors". She goes on to say,

    "It’s nice to know that objects that help us achieve order can – in fact
    - be gorgeous. (We wouldn’t want to compromise on style, now would we?)"
