Start small. Organize one small area. It will look so
great that you will be inspired to do the same to other
areas.
|
 |
Keep in your home only those things that are still
meaningful to you and bring you pleasure. Sell, toss, or
donate the rest.
|
 |
Do not buy items ONLY because they are on sale.
|
 |
Store items as close as possible to where you will use
them. For example, store mixing bowls close to your food
preparation area. |
|
 |
Store heavy and fragile items closer to the floor and
often-used items in the most accessible areas.
|
 |
Store similar items together. When needed, you will
only have to look in one place.
|
 |
Use dividers or separate bins in drawers to help
maintain order.
|
 |
Use labels to help you and others remember where to
put items.
|
 |
Open mail near the recycle bin for easy disposal. Put
the rest in a designated location.
|
 |
Make a master to do list. Then transfer items to your
daily task list and prioritize them. Eliminate tasks that
are not important.
|
 |
Break down projects into smaller tasks.
|
 |
Schedule fun activities as well as tasks.
|
 |
Say no if you need to.
|
 |
Delegate when possible. |
