"It’s amazing how often we continue doing things that don’t work. Professional organizer Don Aslett has compiled a list of things that don’t work. They include:
Telling yourself you’ll remember what’s in an unmarked bottle
Paying for help in advance
Getting someone else to make apologies for you
Buying or agreeing to anything to get a free gift
Telling people something is funny before you tell it to them
Keeping the pie you made for the church dinner in the refrigerator
Eating tacos while driving
Miniature vacuums
Putting things on top of the car when you’re getting ready to depart
Hangers that are supposed to hold 10 pairs of pants
Plastic tops that are supposed to keep the fizz in the rest of your soft drink can
One coat paint
Freezing the leftovers you really didn’t like
We can waste a lot of time on things that don’t work. Ask God today to show you what will work, so you can redeem the time.
