Once you place all relevant papers in the file system, you will feel the benefits of

ORDER. It’s a nice feeling, particularly if you have been rather disorganized in this area.

Remember to customize the system. You are not limited to the above list; add as many files

as you need.

In your Bring Forward System you will have one file for each month, one for each

week and one for next year. Here’s how the system works. Someone says you have to file a

report on the 15th of September. It’s now February. How do you remember to file the report

on time? It’s simple. Write a brief note about when you have to file the report, attach the

note to the report and put into the file marked “September.” Come September, you have

long forgotten the matter until you pull it out of the file and presto! This is invaluable to

create order. This system can be used to recall birthdays, anniversaries or special events.

Simply drop the applicable papers, notes, or advertisements in the appropriate monthly

file.

At the beginning of each month, pull open the monthly file, remove each item and

place it into the weekly file. You have 4 of them to use. If the report is due on September

15, on September 1 when I retrieve the September file, I simply take the report and put

it in the file marked “WEEK 2.” At the start of week 2, I do what the note tells me to

do. I have stopped worrying about it or trying to memorize what I have to do. This is a

fail-safe method of bringing forward information that needs your attention at some point

in the future. It’s no longer in your head, it’s in a system that eliminates errors and is 100%

effective.

The last file marked “NEXT YEAR” is an extra file in which to place information

that does not need your attention until next year.
