1. Organise your space
Make a habit of putting things back to their right place after using them.
3. Make lists.
For me if I need anything or I want to go shopping I make lists. This makes it easier for me to know what I want to buy and not to buy and it helps to forget things easily. Remember the shortest pencil is better than the longest memory, so write it down. The list could be about anything It’s just to organize your thoughts.
4. Stop procrastination
Sometimes we don’t follow through on our daily tasks because we are too busy procrastinating! It comes in different forms from distractions( social media) to laziness. Here are a few ways to help beat it:
- Remove the distractions e.g. mindless scrolling through Instagram or Twitter
- Set time frames for daily tasks and try to stick to it but try not to rush yourself to complete the tasks at the allocated time, rushing may cause you to re-do the task again. If you can’t complete the task at the designated time, take a break and revisit it
- Do the task you are least looking forward to first so you don’t put it off. You will be able to enjoy the task you are looking forward to more, without thinking about the dreaded task hanging over your head.
5. Use The Notes App On Your
There are some tasks that cant be efficiently done by yourself, ask for help from family and friends or anybody you think can help.
Don’t worry if you are not perfectly organized after a week, just form the habit and try to stick to it. I still try to stay organized.
It’s important to note that there would be times when you can’t be totally organized but don’t sweat it, we are not all perfect
Please feel free to share how you stay organized too in the comments too.
