Just a quick post to say you never know where opportunity is hiding.  Last year on the plane to the LA Organizing Awards, I sat next to a wonderful couple who took an interest in my paper organizing eBook called Conquer Paper Clutter.  We started talking and they were so interested in organizing their new apartment.  I returned from my trip and followed up a few times to no avail. 

Then I took the liberty of inviting her to a workshop I was offering.  She would be my guest and this would give her a chance to get a further sense of my style and for us to get back in touch.  Long story short, I have now worked with her and her husband, her son in his office and her daughter called me yesterday to film a news segment on office organizing for a local TV station.  How great is that?

Opportunity is everywhere.  Be persistent and patient and good things will come.
