5 Ways To Be More Organized Without Organizing Anything!
| By: Julie L. Gray 1. Get sleep! - Ever notice how the world looks different after a solid 8 hours? Consistent quality sleep is so critical to organization and life management that we make it a priority at Profound Impact to discuss sleep habits with our clients at every organizing session. Napping is good too! Check out this entire site devoted to napping and find the time for your 'Ultimate Nap'.

Pristine, color-coordinated closets, pile-free countertops, and a perfectly adhered to calendar are not something many of us can maintain. Balance works in both directions.

Be aware of how much is coming in vs. going out - Keep an eye on how much 'stuff' makes its way into your home vs. going out of it. Eliminate the sources of junk mail, catalogs, and whatever else you can prevent from making its way in. Make it easy for items to flow out by stashing donation bags in your closets, car, and basement. Click here to listen to Julie discussing this tip on the radio show All Things Organized! 4. Leave energy for YOU - If you give away all of your energy to work, family, your partner, and your friends, then you've got nothing left to give and run the risk of burning out. It is critical to give yourself the time to enjoy life in a way that reenergizes you so that you can maintain the level of productivity and organization you desire. Create a block of time each week to spend as YOU please. Click here to listen to Julie discussing this tip on the radio show All Things Organized! 5. Pat yourself on the back - OFTEN! Remind yourself regularly that you really are doing the best that you can, where you are, and with what you have. You really aren't going to be able to accomplish everything on your list (sometimes even 1 thing!) everyday. Keeping the self criticism to a minimum goes a long way toward maximizing your energy and motivation. Click here to listen to Julie discussing this tip on the radio show All Things Organized!
