    Hi! What an awesome giveaway!

    What I’d love to see is more information for simplifying work in non-traditional environments. I work outside 40 hours a week, but I still manage to accumulate paperwork – and messy boots. I’d love advice on keeping it all together.

  2. Janet says:

    Hi! Love your blog! I’d like to have some ideas on how a new mom can attempt to create a schedule/get things done. It’s quite a lifestyle change, and I’m having trouble staying as organized as my pre-baby self was!

    Thanks!!!

  3. Sue says:

    Great blog!! Keep the ideas coming!
    I have a seven year old daughter, can you suggest ways and means to keep her occupied during the summer holidays. I don’t want her to get hooked on to the TV or the hi-tech games .

    Thanks once again.

  4. Ziggie says:

    I would love ideas on how to keep my 5 year old son active and productive while teaching him life lessons (yes, this is similar to Sue’s suggestion, but I got here late).

    He’s adept on the computer, but I don’t want him to waste all his time on the computer.

    Thanks! Love your blog — very useful.

  5. Tim says:

    I enjoy your insights on organization and productivity.

    Similar to what others have said, I could always use more insight on how to balance productivity at home with time with kids and ‘productive’ activities for kids.

    Also, motivation or anti-procrastination tips you may have stumbled on. Many nights after wresting children to bed, I just don’t feel like doing anyting but that is the only time I have available.

    Thanks

    I need a lot of help. So if you could come up with ways to help the type of person who needs to organize his/her life all together. From getting up in the morning to going to bed at night.

  8. Hi, thanks for running the contest! You may have already covered some of these, but I’d love to read about:

    - Setting goals for different time ranges and how the timeframe affects your process
    - Do-it-yourself organizing systems that are as simple as possible
    - Setting your mind into simplicity mode when there’s 1,000,000 things to do
    - How to analyze and get rid of commitments that are sucking up your time

      I just wanted to thank everyone that participated in the contest. Your ideas have given me something to shoot for, and you can expect to see all of them tackled!
