Stay Organized and Get It Done This Holiday Season

The holiday season is quickly approaching, which means our already busy lives just get busier.  The need to get things done from literally anywhere is never more desirable than during this hectic time.

What would YOU give up for less time chained to your work desk? That’s the question answered in a new Harris interactive survey and the results are both humorous and surprising.  

Mom, author, blogger and entrepreneur, Jen singer, knows a thing or two about how to get it all done and she joined me today, which Microsoft has declared “Get It Done Day”, for an interview to discuss how to juggle work and life with help from technology:

Enter to Win:  You can enter for a chance to win a VIP experience in the Microsoft Office “Get It Done” promotion.  One winner and their guest can choose to experience one of five events—Sundance, The SuperBowl, The Grammy’s, SXSW, or Comicon— armed with a full suite of Microsoft products to balance the trip of a lifetime with the ability to get it done. The winner will document their experiences and there will even be a filmmaker on hand to create their own “reality show” of their experiences.  50 first-place winners will receive a one-year subscription to Office 365 Home Premium.

    We talked to her this morning too! I learned a lot in five minutes about the different features of Office 365. So much new stuff to explore! I’ve mostly used it just for word. Now I know I can do much more!

    I run a blog, a work from home direct sales business, stay at home full time with the kids while homeschooling and yeah, I would give up A LOT to not be chained to the desk. Time management has been one of my biggest obstacles lately, and I know properly managing your online and computer based work can be a huge help. When you learn to automate and sort properly it gives you a whole lot more time to get to the more important things.

    My desktop is a Mac, but my laptops are PCs and Office is so handy on them!
