Do you have a feeling of despair at the mess in your home or office? Perhaps you’re not even dealing with a mess. You might have things fairly tidy, but maybe you can’t find a single thing when you’re looking for it when you need it.
If this sounds familiar to you, you need to think about what a good organizational strategy can do for your productivity. Being more organized will make your life easier as well as save you time at the end of the day. If you’re interested in organizing your life, think about these effective organization strategies:
Many of us shudder when it comes to cleaning. If you think that you have to break out the brooms and mops and spend the whole day cleaning, then you’re in for a surprise. The truth is, by spending just ten or twenty minutes a day organizing your space, you’ll be making a huge difference.
When you’re organizing your workspace or your living area, everything needs to have a place where it “lives.” For instance, scissors need to live in a specific box or drawer, as do other small things. If something doesn’t have a specific home, it will wander. It might get lost and generally add to the clutter that pervades your area.
Sometimes just the act of writing something down in a book can really help you remember where you need to be and when.
When you’re looking to de-clutter your workspace, make sure you throw away things that you no longer need. Every day do a quick purge and get rid of things that pile up on your desk or kitchen counters. This will get you more space and give you a better idea of what is going on in general.
Keeping a home organized and running smoothly can be difficult, especially if you have a large family. Establish set routines so certain tasks are completed every day. Assign large chores, like laundry, to a specific day of the week. This way you know exactly what chore has to be accomplished every day.
No one expects you to go from clutter-bug to super-organized overnight. By simply implementing a few of these tips into your life, you will re-discover what it’s like to be prepared and organized both in the workplace and at home.
