10 Simple Steps To a More Productive & Organized Life 

When you decide that it's time to organize, start with the area that makes you the most anxious, and then prioritize the other areas in order of importance to you. This will give you a better perspective on everything that needs to be done. 

Make a deadline for when you would like to accomplish the first task. When that is complete set a deadline for the next task. One step at a time is easier to deal with then trying to tackle everything at once. 

Set aside specific times of the day that you can devote to "Keeping Up" with your spaces. For instance, you can start with twenty minutes each day. This is a manageable amount of time, and the job will be less daunting if you try to maintain it once the area has been organized. 

Write down all your plans, and cross them out as you achieve them. This will give you a sense of accomplishment when you succeed. 

When organizing, try not to just move items around. Make a decision whether to keep, toss or donate every item when you handle it the first time. 

Once you have decided to keep the item, make sure you have a home for it. Storing items in clear containers that you can easily identify with labels will make it easier to find things in a rush. 

Find storage products that work for you and your space and think ahead. Are you going to need more storage for like items or are these spaces going to be rotating items over time? 

Store items by a method that works for you. Use a strategy of function, like items or frequency of use. 

Home Maintenance - keep a scheduled checklist of things that you may need to accomplish annually or quarterly. You could organize this by season or by month. Then it isn't a big question as to when you last changed your air filters or fire alarm batteries or cleaned your gutters. 

Household Information - Set up convenient folders where you sort your mail for bills to be paid, coupons you save, or for school activities. File them as soon as you get them and mark any important dates on your calendar.
