Organization is beautiful! I think that you can also create your version of organized that works for you and helps you be a better person for yourself and those around you. It takes honesty, it takes guts, it takes work but that's what makes it beautiful.
So I like to read for both personal pleasure and business and personal improvement. I love, love, love the fact that many of the e-publications I download are with me when I have my mobile device(s) with me. So if I ever find myself with a few minutes to spare or waiting unexpectedly, I can get some reading done and turn otherwise wasted time twiddling my thumb into reading time.
In the last few months, just started getting back into audio books and began subscribing to Audible.com I griped at the monthly fee of $15/month, but realized that I did get through books much faster by adding a new way to digest a book. I found time to listen to books in my vehicle or when I'm doing mindless work like washing dishes or on the treadmill. But I soon noticed a challenge, as some books I have only on audio and some books I have only as a e-book or pdf. Which means some books only got completed during certain activities.
Then one day I decided a book I was reading was getting left by the wayside so I decided that I would use one of my audible.com credits and finish it off by listening to it. Then I found out an amazing discovery! Audible.com teamed up with Kindle a few years ago, (so I admit I'm slow on the uptake when it comes to keeping up with technological advances) and introduced a technology called Whispersync for Voice. This allows you to read on your Kindle device or app, and listen to the same publication on audio and they sync to your current place. That way you can work on one book whether you're listening to it the car or reading it at the doctor's office you can keep pace and complete the book faster.
Love it!
For a short clip of how the sync works:
