Keeping Up With House Chores and To Do List!

            Fall It's About Harvest and Productivity  

                                         

             

We begin to welcome the Fall by putting Summer's clothes away, organizing the backyard and putting tools away, and closing the pool. That's a good time to go through the items you want to keep and the items you would like to donate or just tossed. There's only so much space in the house to storage everything. Sometimes it feels much easy to just throw everything into a pile but only to get you hostile next time you need to get to that room.

We all have that room, drawer, closet that we mean to get to it whenever there's that extra time. The thing of the matter is that, the time we need to organize never comes, there's always something else more important, relevant to care for. Leaving the project to next time, if not years of putting it off. We all heard of journals and how it helps us to keep grounded and organized. It seems like a quick solution if you can keep it written. I go days without writing on my journal. Just simply because there's always something that comes along the way and sometimes gets me off guard, messing up with my plans. I never give up- I go back and write things that I needed to remember most. 

For me taking one project at a time is best. I just make time on my schedule to tackle the specific room in the house. Let me tell you that it feels great the end results when I stick with it till the end. The one thing I have hard time getting through organizing-I am working on it- It's to let go and let God! For example: I have two daughters in their late teens and I keep some of their toddles toys. It took me more than a decade to donate their baby clothes. It does take practice. I always tried to find people that need and would really use them. Don't get me wrong-I am not the type to go out and buy staff- I am not a shopper. I just keep the necessary in my home. I know that some furniture needs to be replaced-because it's getting old-but I keeper nice, cozy and clean. So, I never really felt the need to go out buy new staff. As long the things are clean and clutter free. It is just less stuff to put away. Wouldn't be nice to have less to do, so you have more time for fun? Less stuff, more time management, less clutter, more productivity, less procrastination, more organized space and more self-management. It is just less challenging and problems solving when trying to find something. It's about concrete actions you can take to get more organized or use your time better. 

It's important to start and finish a project before moving to the next. Completion stops mental and physical clutter. You are beginning a task and finish it. That way you don't feel overwhelming and boring going back to do the same thing repeatedly. Get the family involved, if possible. Start small, don't over expect too much done. Keep it simple and quick to get done. When you start try to keep things like; family photos and other items for a well tough out time, so that is not emotional clutter involved, if there's one. Sometimes photos can bring great memories and we might spend hours looking at it, or just make us feel uneasy and sad. You want to avoid that, so you can get the best of your time organizing. 

However, it doesn't mean I am a freaking clean and organized. I am just a human being like anyone else. I get sick-sometimes I just want to do me- I am too busy, whatever maybe.

That's why I find the easiest and simplest systems the ones that's easy to get back on track. Just like a diet that can get you slim and feat with a little help from you. It might not be perfect, but it's the one you stick with it till the end. The best system it's the one that works best for you most of the time. Sometimes people ask me: how clean and organize is your house? I just say, it's clean/organize enough. I just keep things simple enough so that when I put things away it's easy to find later and doesn't take much time to find it.

Know your end/limitations. One big reason that people putt off doing things is that they seem like they'll take forever. Start getting everything out and sorting them. For example; if you’re organizing a bedroom closet, part the clothes by color and style. Same goes for shoes and so forth.  I usually say that the best way to organize it's to breaking off small chunks of a project, so you are not overwhelmed by the whole thing. Although I offer suggestions it's good to come up with your own hacks to help yourself because you know the degree of which your need of organization is.
