You've probably noticed that it adds to your collection of treasures with it turning into a confusing mess. The thought of what should you do to keep organized may be running thru your mind and you are probably overwhelmed with feeling very disorganized.

   Paper files will always be a must for original documents and they should be kept, but there is more you may be missing concerning files, especially with computer files.  Many people rely on things they learned YEARS ago and have NOT stepped into the modern world allowing them to put a copy of paper documents with each person listed on the paper but without making more paper clutter.
