Life today is accelerating at a rapid pace. We often ask how do we manage to get all the things done we need to do in a day? Where do we find the time?

Today more than ever there are more opportunities and choices. In the chaos of the fast pace and unlimited possibilities the organized individual and business will survive where the cluttered, overwhelmed will begin to diminish.

There is so much that goes hand in hand with your physical space and your emotional well-being. Creating calm out of chaos and finding the time to create it can be extremely challenging.

Here is a list of 5 things to help you get started.

1.    Follow blogs and read articles that offer great Organizing advice and tips.
2.    Make a list - Start by defining headings such as 1. Environment (living room, bedroom) 2. Feelings (cluttered, chaotic, clear, peaceful) 3. Likes and dislikes. Fill in each room or environment followed by the feeling and like and dislikes associated with that space.
3.    Pay attention to your own space. Make a list of what works and what does not work for you.
4.    Watch and learn from your friends. What do you love about their space? How does it feel?
5.    Be Present - Stop and Pay attention to the feelings you get in different environments. You need to be present to be able to feel what you like. Add these things to your list.
6.    One of the best things to do is to ask for help.  Ask a friend who is great at creating  soul loving spaces. They will often have tips and tricks to share with you over a great cup of coffee. Maybe you did not even know it, but your best friend hires a concierge or shopping service to help them stay ahead of the busy life demands. This allows them to enhance their lifestyle to find the time to meet with you.

With today’s busy lifestyles you can no longer afford to be disorganized. Sometimes a lifestyle helper that can get you on track. Professional Organizing and Concierge services are a survival tool to help you obtain peace of mind and a soul loving space.

Calgary Choice Awards ..And the winners Are..

The Calgary Choice Awards for 2012/13 were an awesome success. Saturday was a fantastic evening at the BMO Center. I was there for a good portion of the day setting up for the Silent Auction.  Our planning committee had a very busy week prior to the event! It was last minute pick ups and changes. The evening was now here and the nominees began to arrive. It was glitz and glamor and tons of fun. 

I think people loved the red carpet. It makes you feel like a modern day celebrity.. a star for the evening.​

I had the wonderful opportunity to connect and meet with some of Calgary's finest!​ I had the pleasure to meet with Calgary's own Bernard Callebaut  and his wife, Francesca of  Papa Chocolat.  Each guest was given a Chocolate Papa Chocolate  Business Card at our dinner tables. It was melt in your mouth heaven.  http://papachocolat.ca/

One lucky gentleman won the Papa Chocolate Door prize of a gift basket of Papa Chocolat. Delicious!

Perry Thompson of Perry Thompson Photography was a true professional with top notch photography! I was delighted to have met Perry. His work is amazing. I urge you to check out the Red Carpet photos of the 4th Annual Calgary Choice awards.. Fabulous fun! https://perphoto.com/vend-proofing/?/set/fc58/calgarychoiceawards2013/

There were some great steals of deals at the live auction. Massage for a year, DK Envy Spa and Beauty Baskets, Flip Factory Fun,Comedy Monday Nights Bag of Laughs, Chocolate making with Bernard himself and too many great things to list.​

​I Highly Recommend the event to all Calgarians. Let's all get behind it and support Calgary's entrepreneurial spirit.  Thank you Calgary Choice Awards and Shannyn for making this part of Calgary's fun things to do!
