3 Simple Things You Can Do To Organize Your Life Right Now

Once you make it a priority to constantly check in with yourself and your space, it will be much easier to adopt a healthy, organized lifestyle. Here are a few tips to help you make organization a habit:

Don't rely on a cluttered home to remind you that it's time to purge. Schedule an hour on your calendar every month or two to do a mini-purge. You can also choose a different area of the house to tackle every time a calendar reminder comes up.

Put things back where they belong to create a calm, clean environment. It helps you make lots of important decisions easier. Set a time each day to spend five minutes literally putting things back where they belong. This could be picking up toys, hanging up coats, or putting away the laundry.

We tend to ignore those miscellaneous items that hang out on flat surfaces (a place where nothing should really "hang out" for long). Places like the counter, desktop, bed, and floor. The more those things just hang around, the more annoyed, perhaps subconsciously, we become. That kind of clutter also breeds other clutter, so make a point to keep your exposed surfaces clean, and it will inspire clarity throughout your entire space.
