The key cause of the pileup is that paper never stops coming—not a day goes by that we don’t collect more junk mail, bills, receipts, magazines, invitations, advertisements, and so on. For our December 2015 meetup, we’ll examine the habits and beliefs that contribute to paper clutter. We’ll offer ideas to help you stem the tide of incoming paper, clear your backlog, and build a system to keep from ever falling behind again.
