Sort Yourself Out: Pick 10 Categories and Start
Manage episode 435249673 series 3566435
Ever feel like your life is a mess of unread emails, piled-up papers and endless to-do lists?
I’ve been there, and know exactly how overwhelming this kind of disorganisation can be. It can get to the point where we actively avoid addressing any of it - usually just making things a whole lot worse!
Thankfully, I’ve been able to develop my own personal administration system that helps me in effectively organising my life and desk.
Today, we’ll tackle the digital and paper sides of your life with strategies I’ve found so valuable in decluttering and easing the mental load. This includes the process of picking 10 categories to help streamline your life.
We all know how stressful an unchecked inbox can be, so I give you a step-by-step guide to creating designated folders and effectively managing all those unread emails. We’ll also explore adding necessary actions to your to-do list and going on a ruthless ‘unsubscribe’ spree from newsletters or advertisements that no longer serve you.
We’ll then take a look at some ideas on how you can best store your hard copy documents and important information.
Finally, I love keeping my desk clear, and I share with you four key items I always have on hand to help me to keep it that way.
If this system feels like the right direction to get you organised, then I encourage you to just get stuck in. Remember, beginning with a work-in-progress is better than not starting at all!
I look forward to hearing what your categories are and how these simple actions have improved your space - so make sure you reach out when you’ve created yours!
Until next time, keep on striving to live your best, most balanced life.
