When deciding to organize a space, it is good practice to decide up front that you are going to go all the way with it. I have found if an area is halfway organized, the same patterns that created the disorganization continue to happen. Thoroughly sorting through things such as clothes, toys, books, tools, etc will allow you to fully define categories that make sense in your life. When there is crossover of two or more categories that have been thrown into one, it can create confusion, especially when you are establishing new organizing systems. Simply said...Dont do it halfway. If you feel unsure about the sorting process because there are too many categories, call on a professional organizer to help.

If you have ever put together a good size puzzle, you might have experienced the process of your intuition kicking in and entire areas of the puzzle coming together quickly. You have to go through the moments when you can’t find any pieces that will fit. This is much the same process as organizing a room or an area of your home. It is an organic process and sometimes takes patience before it all starts to come together. Every decision that is made to either pass something along to someone else, throw it away or even where it will go in the end is a valuable decision. The room may not look like you thought it should after a period of time but if you keep going you will see the transformation and it might be better than you expected. People sometimes tell me that they hate organizing or going through things and making decisions on them. They might have hit the point in the puzzle when they cant find where anything goes. You have to be willing to set something aside until you know where it goes later on in the process and keep going. If you feel you have hit that point with organizing your home or office and would like some help, please call me. I will help you get things moving again. |
