For most people being "organized" is something to achieve, something they wish they were but never seem to make happen.
Organizing your home can be overwhelming, and even seem impossible at times. Being more organized is one of those New Years resolutions that always seems to get broken.
Here's the thing about organization:
It's all about taking small bites. Divide and conquer.
You don't have to organize the whole house at once. Choose one room and then choose one small part of that room.
Start with a closet, or start with one desk drawer.
It doesn't matter where you start. Once you start, you build momentum.
The act of organizing creates a sense of accomplishment which propels you on to the next area to conquer.
Get that ball rolling and it is actually hard to stop.
Organization is simple - It's getting started that is so difficult!
TIP Sort items into three piles. Items to Keep, Toss, and Donate.
Organize your small "keep" items by grouping them together in decorative containers. Containers not only make it easier to store the items, they make for a much cleaner look.
