You set a goal for yourself, make sure your not busy that day and you clean. Music makes it easier to clean, and your allowed breaks but try not to because your less likely to finish that way. Then after you set smaller goals daily to organize a little. It helps to stay organized daily than to let things build up!

I try to make a list of things I want to do in the follow days and of course I try to stand by my list. If any ideas pop up later I immediately add them and just during the day try do to everything. I do not work ahead. For example, if I wrote something to do tomorrow and I have spare time today, I still leave it for tomorrow so I can rest and reflect.

Good morning, one way that I like to stay nice and organized is by having ten mins a day just to tidy up. I feel that if I have that time I will not want to do a lot of cleaning so when I do something I will clean it up then.

By choosing the places of where to put my material very mindfully (it is handy and helps with the flow of actions), and by creating a habit of decluttering eveytime after use (all the tables ei), and by cleaning little things that don’t ask anymore attention afterwards (cleaning the lavabo and bath/shower every time after use, and having an anticalc system). I also keep track of all the tasks to do in my journals, plus I have notifications for the things that I could otherwise probably forget (ei baking bread, washing bed linen, cleaning the filters in the kitchen or of our filtering system or the swimming pool,……). When something has to go ei to the cave, we first place it on the stairs so we don’t need to go to much. Our cave contains also the garages and cleaning rooms and a lot of the storage, so it is used and therefore somehow more attracting to go to. The kitchen is organized very well (better seems impossible). The food storage is also in the (larger) kitchen, and the main cleaning materials too. We made place for all our hobbies ei piano, harpsichord/creative/yoga/… room and a privacy terrace where I can do yoga in the morning and reading a book or writing in my journals. Everything can stay where it is, we don’t have to put the yoga mat or so away. ………..

I find it to be organized at the start of something a lot easier but as I get further along I find it actually really hard keep things organized

Generally speaking anything I have to do regularly I set up for the next time and writing it in an organizer so when I go through it each day I know what needs to be done next and schedule each task by day of the week. I think a daily organizer is key. Also if you grab a cheap dollar store grease board with erasable markers for your fridge you can write your daily tasks the night before and check it off as you go first in your organizer where you can add daily and if you work/have errands check things off daily til you get home and once you’re done and your list is checked, erase it and set it up til the next day. Rinse n Tepat is what I call it so 1. Organizer 2. Grease board. I hope this helps.

I organize by doing things in parts….like if I clean my room I will do one side of my room and then go to the next side then my bed it is least pressure on me.And I stay organized by checking on the thing that I organized.

I get organized by writing down my goals for the day, night before, so as I finish one and another I cross them, so I can keep track. If I skip one day, or one thing to do, I feel like I’m betraying myself, so as far I’m writing down everything I can stay organized.
