If you’re like most Americans, your life is overrun with paper. Bills,

reminders, phone numbers, business documents and more quickly turn into piles that are lost or forgotten. This year, make a New Year’s resolution to cut down on the mountains of paper and get digitally orga-nized.

While junk mail can be recy-cled, many other household and business documents con-tain important information that needs to be saved. The problem with having too much paper is not being able to find what you need when you need it. Anyone who has spent hours digging through file cabinets looking for an old password can attest to this. But you should also consider the fact that your vital documents, like insurance policies, can be gone in a flash if you’re struck by a fire or flood.

Here are a few ideas to help you become more organized in the New Year:

Reduce your incoming flow of paper Sign up for electronic bill-ing and opt out of receiving paper bills. This reduces the amount of paper coming into your home and makes it easier to manage as well as having a positive effect on the environ-ment. Paying bills online can also save time. It’s easier to see at a glance how much you’re spending and you can quickly find old invoices without dig-ging through piles of paper.

Digitize important papers For critical documents such as legal records and receipts, con-sider investing in a home scan-ner with a document feeder. Using software such as DYMO File, you can easily scan and file all your important documents electronically (www.DymoFile.com). DYMO File also lets you search for a document using any word within the file mak-ing it quick and easy to find what you need. Make sure to store valuable original docu-

ments in a fireproof safe or a bank deposit box.

Protect your identity With sensitive documents on your computer, it’s important to set up a password in order to access these files. Your password should be at least six characters and should include both letters and numbers. Don’t use obvi-ous passwords like addresses, phone numbers or your name. Remember to shred any mail that contains personal informa-tion..

Digitally capturecontact information Using a system like CardScan, you can scan and electronically read all your business cards from home service companies, your accountant and your dentist as well as business col-leagues (www.CardScan.com). When you receive an e-mail with an automatic signature, you can “drag and drop” it into your CardScan software so all your contact data is in one place. You can also sync the information with your smart

phone for on-the-go access to all your important contacts. You can even safeguard your contacts using CardScan’s free online back up service.

Back Up your Files Once your paper files are con-verted to digital information, don’t forget to back them up. Invest in a separate hard drive and regularly back up copies of all important files. You can also use automated programs such as the “Time Machine” feature on a Mac. Backing up files also secures your personal music, video and digital photos -- files that many consider priceless.

Look for even morepaper to digitizeDon’t stop at just business and critical personal documents when you can digitize even more household paper. Scan and store your children’s report cards, family photos and kids’ art work. You can always keep the paper version if you’d like, but your digital scrapbook is there just in case. n
