When You’re Feeling Overwhelmed-Get Organized!
Have you ever had trouble thinking or moving in a room because you felt overwhelmed by all of the stuff? I know in my own office, if I start having too many papers out all at once, I feel like I can’t think straight to work. Fortunately for me, I have a system in place so I can restore order quickly and get to work. But with my clients, I find they feel stuck.
So, even though you may feel overwhelmed, it’s time to tackle those areas that are stressing you out and get organized now. Take back your space, you’re the boss! When you start to make progress, you will feel better and you will feel more in control. Getting organized is more than just getting rid of some stuff, it can actually be life-changing.
If you are feeling overwhelmed, keep these organizing tips in mind:
- Use the time of day that you have the most energy to tackle your project.
- Set a timer for the amount of time you can comfortably work, even just 30 minutes will make a difference!
- Choose one area at a time to declutter. It may be one drawer, it may be one wall unit, just choose one area and then move onto the next.
- Remember that it took a while to get disorganized so it’s ok for it to take a while to get organized again.
- Bring in reinforcements to help you through friends, family or a professional organizer. Having someone next you can make the process easier and more fun too.
- Put on some music to get you going-I love music!
It’s well worth your time, energy and efforts to get organized so you won’t feel overwhelmed in your space anymore!
