How to Organize Home Office Books

This is Pete D'Alessandro with Expert Village. I wanted to continue showing you about how we're loading this back. I mean you have to keep in mind how much space we have. Everybody has a lot of media, magazines, books. We've talked about the magazines already but books, stuff like audio, this is a tough one because wouldn't it be nice to learn Russian? A conversation of Russian in 7 days? Yes it would, everyone would love that, right? But are we really going to take the time to do it on tape? If this stuff exist on CD is going to be newer, it's going to last longer, it can be digitized to take up zero actual space. So we really have to let go of this stuff because there's just no more room for it in our lives anymore because as a society we move pass this. So we're going to have to get rid of the stuff like tapes. And a lot of media. More analogue media books. Now books are quiet so easily digitized but stuff like manuals, anything that is going to exist online, you're going to have to be willing to let go of. Because again for every one thing you buy it's going to have 20 manuals, you're not going to take the time to look through this, it's just going to make you more disorganized, it's going to contribute stress to the space you're trying to work in. And that's not going to help you, it's going to hurt you. So it's not information you're losing, it's space you're gaining. Remember this information isn't gone forever, it still exist online, it still exist anywhere you want to find it. You don't need it in your space. So, keep the books that are most important to us and try and cut down by half because we're not really going to need everything we already have in our space.
