Looking for a way to keep your recipes organized? Check out the guest post I wrote this week for Praxis, the official blog of Brooke Stone Lifestyle Management. Be sure to follow Brooke’s blog for incredible organization tips. (You can also follow Praxis on Twitter: @BSLMNYC.)

Even if you don’t have kids (tip #8) or a linen closet (#10), this PR Daily article is super helpful. What’s your trick when it comes to getting (and staying) organized?

From highlighters to file folders, I’m kind of obsessed with color-coding. My Google Calendar is no exception. (I’m actually too embarrassed to admit how many colors I use… I’ll save that info for a future post.) Unfortunately, color-coding didn’t make Mashable’s recent list of 10 Simple Google Calendar Tips and Tricks to Boost Your Productivity, but these other suggestions are just as helpful. (If you haven’t tried Google Calendar yet, go directly to www.google.com/calendar immediately, if not sooner.)

Organizing is what you do before you do something, so that when you do it, it’s not all mixed up.
