 <\/p>\n

January is Get Organized (GO) month! This annual celebration of all things organizing connects with goals and New Year’s resolutions for the coming year. Getting organized is always one of the top 3 New Year’s resolutions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This year take a non-traditional route to getting organized. Throughout the month, each blog post will share not-so-typical strategies to declutter, create routines, and schedule time for what is important to you. Here are some ways to find success in your organizing at home and work.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Making change happen<\/h3>\n

Having an awareness that things are not working is the first step in making change happen. However, it takes commitment and accountability to move forward. Finding your “why” helps you commit to new habits and routines. Sharing your “why” and finding partners along the way help you be accountable for the new habits.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Working from\u00a0 your strengths<\/h3>\n

Too often we learn about organizing strategies that will not work for you. Learn more about your learning modalities and work from these strengths to help you create systems that will work for you.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Think systems<\/h3>\n

Creating systems is one of the best ways to be organized, save time, and maximize productivity. A system<\/a>\u00a0is a method or process that you create to carry out repeated actions in a consistent way. Even better, systems can be automated and streamlined to maximize efficiency. A system<\/a> is the best way to save your sanity.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Add strong self-care as support<\/h3>\n

Energy and ideas work together to create change. The more energy you have, the easier it is to modify your lifestyle. That energy comes from self-care<\/a> like a good night’s rest, hydration, exercise, and time in the sunlight.<\/p>\n
