Do You Utilize Colors in Your Organizational Techniques?
Do you have favorite colors you use in your orginazional techniques? Are these colors that you like? Are they traditional colors for specific topics? Do you designate categories with colors, groups of people with colors, different topics with colors, specific years with colors, etc.? Or do you use the same color for everything? Do certain people in your office/business have their own color?
Here are items that often come into play with color coding in organizing:
- Paper clips
- File folders
- Hanging folders
- Sticky notes
- Notepaper
- Memo sheets
- 3 x 5 and other file cards
- Photocopy paper
- In/out files
- Filing cabinets
I like to organize with different colors. Now just to get everything unified under this method.
