If there is one thing that can waste a lot of time, it is a disorganized file and folder system on a computer. If you have to spend a significant amount of time looking for a file, you need to get better organized.
Organization happens in the Windows Explorer file and folder system. You will need to set up folders to separate files from other files, so that you can find what you are looking for quickly. This means that you have to stay organized right from the start when you are building your electronic filing cabinet. If you are well into a mess, it can be fixed quite easily by creating folders to put those stray files into.
When saving that file, there are two important things to consider: (1) where are you going to put it and (2) what are you going to name the file. These two elements will help you stay organized and find files faster.
So by spending that extra amount of time by creating folders and storing your files correctly, you will get a return on your investment quite quickly. Find it quickly, use it and put it away. Then go about the rest of your day.
Have a great day, Jeff
