Are you disorganized? Are you often late, and the house is always bedlam? How to put things in order in your life - TOP-20 easy ways to do it
To keep things clear and planned in life, coaches and psychologists recommend keeping routine lists that keep you organized and collected. It is believed that they have a therapeutic effect, because when everything is under control, we are calm and less nervous. Write down these 20 easy ways to get organized on your notebook layer and start following them. Believe me, taming the chaos dragon is not as difficult as it sounds.
- Clean regularly in your bag and wallet. Throw the pieces of paper, old candy, spilled gum and checks into the trash can.
- Indicate the day of the wash. Let it be a scheduled event once a week.
- Organize your closet. This is the most disorganized place in the house, which is terrifying. Use plastic boxes to sort things.

- Always wash the dishes after eating. Let your family know that from now on, all family members will adhere to this rule.
- Spend 10-20 minutes cleaning each day. Believe me, this is incredible habit. You will always be clean!
- Plan your meals well in advance. Organize meals "according to the pots" - once a week you can cook three days in advance.
- Make your bed immediately after sleeping. Admiral William McRaven recommended this in his legendary speech.
- Sort dirty things at once: color, white, delicate and black into different boxes. Firstly, you will put things in order in the most cluttered place, and secondly, you will not waste time sorting the laundry before washing.
- Put things back in place. Otherwise, chaos in life cannot be avoided.
- Stock up on what you use regularly. For example, suppose there is always a shampoo or dishwashing detergent in stock.
- If you are often late, even hang the clock in the bathroom. After all, for some reason, in this room, time passes like sand through your fingers.
- Plan all the clothes for the day the day before: prepare things in sets, down to socks and panties. This way you will avoid the morning rush.
- Throw away expired pills, old eye shadow, broken hairpins - all the little things that you haven't used for years.
- Create a birthday calendar. Look at it at the beginning of the month. Don't let the holidays take you by surprise.

- Buy gifts for family and friends in advance - during the days of sales and discounts.
- Automate everything you can: pay for utilities online, put discount cards in the application on your phone.
- Review unnecessary items throughout the house once a month. Leave only that which gives you joy.
- Get rid of stale food deposits in the refrigerator (you definitely have a head of cabbage cabbage or an incomplete jar of jam, right?).
- There are books that are of no value. Send them to waste paper or the library.
- Tame the most cluttered areas of your home. For example, a chair on which everyone puts things.
