Why Get Organized?

 

Sure, being organized makes you feel happier and more in control.  What are other payoffs?  According to researchers and other gurus:

· Organized people earn more

· Organized people are more likely to be promoted on the job

· Organized people accomplish more, in part by wasting less time

· Children of organized parents perform better in school than others with the same IQ

· Children of organized parents will earn more as adults

· Uncluttered homes sell better

· Uncluttered spaces leave room for what’s important

 

Times have changed.  According to the USPS we deal with more paper and information in one year than our grandparents saw in a lifetime, and studies show that the flood of information that deluge both our homes and offices is here to stay.  Being organized and clutter free has evolved into a modern-day survival skill for both work and life.

 

In fact, Edward Hallowell, author of Driven to Distraction and Delivered from Distraction, in his new book Crazy Busy asserts that our modern day “brain overload has led to the point that our entire society is suffering from culturally-induced ADD.”

When You Organize, You …

 

Free Your Mind

These days, life is throwing things at us at a fever pace—- papers, information, technology, and lots of “stuff.”  It’s so easy to get sucked into the whirlwind!  To make the most of life, we have the right to choose what to keep and what to ignore.  Organizing frees your mind of the extra chatter that clutters our brains.

 

Let Go of Excess Baggage

How much “stuff” — information, paper, clothes, gadgets, furniture, space … — does anyone really need to be happy?  Research shows that surrounding ourselves with family and friends and worthwhile activities contribute to a happy life, not stuff.  More stuff than we need is just getting in our way and robs us of our valuable time.  Organizing helps you let go of things that aren’t enhancing your life.

 

Transform Your Space

Often, the biggest changes come from something simple like rearranging the furniture.  When your space is transformed into a comfortable, peaceful backdrop for your life, the stage is set to support the relationships and activities that matter most to you.

 

Set Up Systems That Work

The truth is, no matter how much we weed out and organize, more is constantly coming in and there are tasks that still need to be done.  The key to keeping everything going is to make our systems so simple, it’s easy to get those repetitive tasks finished.  In real life, things don’t have to be neat to be organized.  They just have to work well for you.

 

Spend More Time on Things That Matter

Once effective systems are put in place, life’s mundane details take less time.  Then, magic will happen.  You’ll feel better about your life, your space, and your work.  And you’ll have time and energy for the people and projects you care about.

We all want the freedom to take advantage of the opportunities life presents us.  Imagine grabbing hold of an exciting option when it comes your way or choosing a new path entirely.  Simplified spaces allow you to quickly transition from one opportunity to another.

“Janet helped me think through how I use my office materials and then organized everything into an easily accessible, logical system.  My office looks great!  I feel less stress now and no longer feel the burden of lots of stuff and not being able to find what I need.  My file map also helps me remember what is where.  Thanks Janet”
