Creating quality free time in your day can seem like an
impossible task but taking a few moments to figure out simple ways to
get organized so you can create time and streamline your day is the
difference between a chaotic week that leaves you exhausted and a smooth
flowing week with the time to relax and enjoy your self. Here are five
organizing tips to save time and create wellbeing.
A stitch in time saves nine is a really wonderful saying when it comes to organizing. Taking a few minutes to put dishes and clothes away, make a list so you remember everything or attend to what needs to be done in those little moments can prevent the hours it takes to clean and create order in your home. What daily actions can you take that will prevent small tasks from becoming big time consuming tasks?
Errands can eat up huge chunks of your time so think about grouping errands together, combining similar errands and delaying what isn't urgent until you can do a few errands at the same time. Changing how you structure errands can save countless extra trips that take time and money and a lot of extra running around.
Get organized in the kitchen. Meal preparation, grocery shopping and cleaning can be a massively time consuming chore. Filling out your grocery list during the week and discarding any out of date food while you wipe down your refrigerator weekly prevents things from getting out of control in the kitchen. Try making lunches the night while you put away dishes to create time the next morning.
Complete task cycles. This means that things like doing laundry really require washing, drying, folding and putting away. Often this four part process isn't completed and clean clothes get stuck in the laundry room for days, washed clothes stay damp and the whole clothing cycle breaks down. Taking a little time to complete this cycle in the laundry or kitchen can save you the hours of time it will take to deal with a kitchen or laundry that has been neglected during the week.
Delegate what you can. This simply means everyone in your home needs a special job that they can do to help the family out. This may be folding and putting away laundry, emptying the dishwasher or taking turns to cook meals and wash dishes. A little effort and time from everyone can make a huge difference to how your home runs.
Get organized so you can experiment with these five time saving organizing tips this week and see how much time you can create so you can start the shift to an organized home for a calmer more satisfying life.
