Zen N Organized

One of the most rewarding parts of what I do is getting to help people start their journey to a more organized life. I got a message from a client that I wanted to share. It’s responses like this that motivate me! Hello Pam, I have spent the last 2 hours shredding M’s files and not finished yet but thought of how lucky I was that Ann introduced you to me as we could not have managed at that time without you and you did such a wonderful and thorough job and for all that I say... Thank you. #organization #professionalorganizer #decluttering #tuesdaymotivation #oakville #burlington #hamilton #Gta #halton

If you run a buissness than you are Going to need to keep more than the average person Ofcourse with contracts and invoices the government n...eeds you to keep.

Pro tip! Set an example by showing your kids how to stay organized. The most important place for a child to learn important life skills is at the home. Parents are the most important teachers because we are the ones our kids look to for guidance, even if it doesn’t seem like it all the time. If you set the rules and keep up with them yourselves you can set your kids up with routines that will stick with them for the rest of their lives! Make sure to follow me here and on Ins...tagram to get tips that can help you get you and your family more organized! https://www.instagram.com/pam_the_organizer/?hl=en #ProTip #organization #professionalorganizer #parenthood #headstart #newyearnewme #oakville #burlington #hamilton #GTA #halton

With today being Data Security Day I wanted to start some discussion today. Data security is an important part of all of our lives but that goes even farther for small buissness owners. Most of the time you are handling not just yours but the data of your clients as well! I wrote a blog last year talking about preparing to work from home where I talk about what you have to think about when dealing with sensitive data. Confidential data about your company as well as your clie...nts’ information must be protected. Is your internet and security at home operating at the optimal level? Do you have access to your work’s IT department to help you safeguard and secure such sensitive material? If you are working alone then looking at what smaller companies are doing can be a good start. If you are working for someone else then talk to someone higher up about what they have to help you keep your data safe. If you want to read the full blog with more tips for working at home follow this link. https://zennorganized.com/are-you-ready-to-work-from-home/ #DataPrivacyDay #dataprivacy #smallbusiness #homeoffice #selfhelpblog #burlington #oakville #hamilton #GTA #halton

Even though the gatherings may be smaller doesn’t mean many of us aren’t still making big dinners for our families! Cooking can be so much fun but it will be even better in a kitchen designed to work for you. Kristan McGowen is a YouTube vlogger who focuses on organization and life hacks.

All of us have paperwork, some of us more than others. Whether it’s government documents or health records or wormer ship deeds and that’s not even considering if you own a buissness or are running someone’s financials!

Every year my family and I make donations to different charities for those in need. Besides monetary donations, we also donate a bunch of toys to Toy Mountain. This year is especially important as many families are struggling to put food on the table, let alone buying gifts for their kids. Here’s our small contribution to the toy drive! #toymountain #donation #giving #holidayseason #oakvillesmallbusiness #zennorganized #oakvilleon

Many of us are used to the term spring cleaning, but personally, I think the end of the year is an even better time. Look around your home, donate the excess, and eliminate the clutter. Get your home ready for the new year and new energy. #saturdaymotivation #declutter #organization #professionalorganizer #selfhelp #motivation #holidayprep #Oakville #burlington #hamilton #halton #gta
