Want to Be Organised But Don’t Know Where to Start? Try These 5 Easy Habits

Feeling overwhelmed by clutter and a never-ending to-do list? You're not alone! Many people want to be more organised but struggle with where to begin. The good news is, you don't need a complete overhaul to start seeing improvements. By incorporating a few simple habits into your daily routine, you can gradually transform your life from chaotic to calm.

Here are 5 easy habits to help you get organised:

1. Make Your Bed Every Morning

This might seem trivial, but it's a powerful habit. A made bed instantly makes your bedroom look tidier and sets a positive tone for your day. It’s a small win that can encourage you to tackle other organising tasks.

• Benefit: Starts your day with a sense of accomplishment and order.

2. Declutter for 10 Minutes a Day

Instead of dedicating an entire weekend to decluttering, try just 10 minutes a day. Focus on one small area, like a drawer, a shelf, or a specific counter. You'll be surprised how much you can achieve over time.

• Benefit: Prevents overwhelm and makes decluttering a manageable task.

3. Create a Daily To-Do List

Before you end your workday or go to bed, write down the 3-5 most important tasks you need to accomplish the next day. This helps you prioritise and ensures you don't forget crucial items.

• Benefit: Provides clarity and focus for your day.

4. Designate a "Home" for Everything

Clutter often accumulates when items don't have a specific place to belong. For every item you own, decide where it should live. Once it has a "home," make a conscious effort to put it back after each use. Consider using a Mordea Collapsible Basket for versatile storage.

• Benefit: Reduces clutter and makes finding things easier.

5. Review Your Calendar Regularly

Take a few minutes each morning or evening to look at your calendar for the day ahead and the coming week. This helps you stay on top of appointments, deadlines, and commitments, preventing last-minute rushes and forgotten events.

• Benefit: Improves time management and reduces stress.
