Free Hints for Gettng Organized


An Organized Home

Having an organized home can mean something different to everyone. However, there's just something about walking into a room that feels good. You know the feeling! The feeling that you can take a deep breath. The feeling that you can relax. That everything has a place. It just feels like an organized home.

Follow the room by room links for Free Hints for getting organized.


Begin with the Basics

There are some basic ideas that apply to every area of your home. When you begin working towards a more organized home think about the overall feel you want when you are there. Often times the best of organizing intentions get sidetracked with an overwhelming feeling.

You can do it! One step at a time.

The first step is to get real!

Is your clutter controlling how you show up for your life? Are you really ready to get organized? Are the other members of the household ready to participate? If you are on your own ask yourself what you are willing to do to feel better in the space you live in. Sometimes getting organized requires new habits and new ideas about how you have been doing things.

First:  Write your goal. Keep it simple. Just a few words that describe what this space will feel like when you are done.

  • Is it spacious?
  • Is it calming?
  • Is it inviting?
  • Is it functional?

Next:  Post this list while you are working in the room to remind yourself of the goal.

It's important to remember that it very likely didn't get disorganized over night and it will take some time to create the organized home you dream about.

Then:  Have realistic expectations, know your capabilities and limitations and enjoy the process. Do a little at a time if needed.

Finally:  Get help when you need it. You deserve it!
