If you think the answer to being super put together is having all of the right organizational tools at your fingertips—that’s only part of the secret.
The truth is being organized takes a certain mindset. In order to stay motivated to live an orderly life, the ultra-organized tell themselves the following.
Rifling through closets for misplaced objects costs money when you have to replace them. Knowing where everything is prevents you from buying duplicates.
What kind of person do you look up to as a leader? The person who can’t find anything, isn’t prepared, and is always late? Or the person who’s on time, on track, and ready to work?
Ultra-organized people know that it’s important to take advantage of time-savers whenever possible, like online programs and apps like Evernote. There’s a reason Evernote’s slogan is “Remember Everything.”
Being able to gather all of your necessary information within minutes rather than hours makes filing your taxes less painful and time-consuming.
Keeping tabs on important financial information like passwords and purchases helps avoid your information falling into the wrong hands–and you not knowing if it does.
When the kids in your life see how organized you are, they are more likely to emulate you—or at least pick up their room before you enter.
If all is in its place and how it should be, you’re more likely to notice the little things, like a fantastic sunset or the state of the flowers on your windowsill.
Those who lead an organized life and have an organized mind tend to embrace change more readily, without panic.
The confidence of knowing that everything is where it should be makes it easier show the world the real you, and not a flustered, scrambling mess.
When you live a haphazard life, you’re more likely to have to apologize for not being able to find important documentation or for being late to a meeting or appointment.
