I’m a bit of a “good girl” when it comes to getting all the health checks done you’re supposed to get.

I’m not saying I like having them done; just that I do go get them done.

I had my annual gynae check-up last month as I find it easy to schedule it in the month of my birthday.

I also had a mole looked at that my massage therapist thought I should get checked out.

Have you had these health checks done this year yet?

• Dentist
• Optometrist (especially if you already wear glasses)
• Gynae
• Mammogram (if over 40)
• Pap smear
• Cholesterol
• Blood pressure

Did you know heart disease is called the silent killer in women? People think breast cancer’s the number 1 killer; it’s actually heart disease.

Now for a quick organising tip

1. buy one of those tiny month at a glance daily planners when they go on special during the first few weeks of January (I get mine at Exclusive Books or a Christian bookstore for about R20)
2. use this daily planner for the SOLE purpose of keeping track of your monthly cycles and any other health-related information
3. take this planner with you for any health checks and when the doctor asks you those questions you can never remember, all you do is haul it out and page through to get your information

(I love the look on their faces when I take my little planner out of my handbag and have all the information literally at my fingertips)

How are you doing on all your health checks?

I got together with 3 awesome business owners and we put together this 40-page book in record time. Nothing like group excitement and accountability to get us moving!

I am so proud of how this turned out and I know you’re going to LOVE it!

You can get your copy of this gorgeous FREE book at http://organiseyourbusiness.com/.

Let me tell you a little bit about my co-authors:

Beth Dargis has been my accountability partner since November 2006. We chat every Friday night (Jhb time) and set weekly goals for our businesses. Beth is a Simplicity Expert and helps us all get rid of the crazy! Beth and I are exact opposites (she centres me when I want to go off on another hare-brained scheme) so we complement one another very well.

I met Suzanne McLoone last year through blogging and we’ve been blog buddies ever since. I call Suzanne the Outlook Whiz because seriously, she knows every little tip and secret you would ever wish to know about Outlook

And then last, but by no means least, Ariane Benefit. Ariane writes for a gazillion blogs and is my fellow contributor on Clutter Control Freak —>> Ariane is a professional organiser who specialises in ADD and ADHD issues. Ariane is SO busy but I will not rest until I convert her to my Eat the Frog philosophy. Yes, Ariane – only 6 things!

So, go meet my co-authors, browse around their sites, sign up for their tips (they’re all good, I promise - I am also signed up) but before you go…

Don’t forget to get your copy of the book.

I’ve just finished writing my weekly tips email which goes out every Wednesday and something just occurred to me.

I send out a weekly tips email that relates in some way to helping you have more time, less stress and a more organised and fulfilled life. There are lots of organising tips and ideas that you guys don’t get to see

Now and again, I’ll put something on the blog that I’ve sent out in my weekly tips but that happens very rarely.

I often have discounts on my products but this is just for newsletter subscribers so I never publish those discounts here. Like at the moment I have a birthday discount for my subscribers on 3 of my products because I had a birthday this month. (Yes, I’m 33).

Anyway, so if you’re interested, go sign up on my website or fill in the box on the sidebar —->>. If after a week or two you don’t find any value in the emails, please unsubscribe. The last thing I want to do is clutter up your inbox with stuff you don’t want

You’ll get an email asking you to confirm your subscription because I have a double opt-in list to prevent spammers. By the way, my webhost doesn’t like gmail accounts so try to use anything else

And then you’ll get the Organising Success Pack with your free e-book, Organise your Life.

More importantly, tomorrow when I send out the mailing with the discounts and this week’s article (7 secrets to the Super Organised), you’ll also get it.

And now, I’m off to bed. My cut-off for computer work is 10pm and we’re just about there
