Five-Part Organizing 1-2-3 Mini-eCourse

“Overcoming being Dis-organized: Practical advice for De-cluttered spaces and Organized daily living”

Part One "Organizing 1-2-3 Mini-eCourse"

To be able to ORGANIZE is a skill that can be LEARNED. It is not inherited! There are ways out of the struggles! Get successful in life again! GET IN CONTROL AGAIN!

The Organizing 1-2-3 eBook has strategies and solutions that work! Learn to use those Strategies and solutions to work FOR YOU!!! YOU ARE ABLE TO CHOOSE FOR THE BETTER AND ARE CAPABLE TO DEAL WITH YOUR DE-CLUTTERING AND ORGANIZING OPTIONS DECISIVELY.

IF YOU STRUGGLE AND SUFFER PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF BEING DISORGANIZED, THEN THIS BOOK IS FOR YOU! YOU CAN NOW DO SOMETHING MEANINGFUL TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE! There is some real truth and wisdom in the following:

“Organization is not an option, it is a fundamental survival skill and distinct competitive advantage” ~ Pam N. Woods

“It takes but one positive thought when given a chance to survive and thrive to overpower an entire army of negative thoughts.” - Robert H. Schuller.

Whatever your personal strategy for dealing effectively with DE-CLUTTERING DESPAIR, be sure to take into account the following:

  •     Negative thought patterns to be avoided
  •     All or nothing – if it’s not perfect, it’s not worth it
  •     Negative self-talk – I can’t, I’m a failure…
  •     Overgeneralization – seeing a single event as making all of life a disaster
  •     Catastrophization – each little problem is the end of the world
  •     Mind reading –assuming people to think the worst of you
  •     Fortune telling – “knowing” things will turn out badly and acting as if they are
  •     Accentuating the negative – ignoring positive things and exaggerating negative ones
  •     Self-blame – using guilt to motivate yourself, or unfair self-blame

You’re always behind, always late, always apologizing to people! It’s distracting, demoralizing, embarrassing! You are terrified of someone calling you up on very short notice to say they are dropping in unexpectedly. You feel that you can do so much more if only you were organized!

It is now within your reach! Go for it! Wouldn’t it be nice to feel in control, feel ready for life, and enjoying life? That is what organizing can do for you! One secret to success in organizing is the ability to prioritize your various commitments, enlist the help of others, and not sweat the small stuff.

First, you can enjoy "Part One" of the FREE, five-part mini-e-course, which is taken straight from this newly released Organizing 1-2-3 eBook.

Organizing can be immensely gratifying in this changing world with its increasing demands. It is not for the faint hearted though, since it sometimes will require courage, lots of persistence, self discipline and self control. It will invariably result in a character building exercise in most areas of your life.

Organizing is not a talent…..it is a skill, a remarkably simple skill that anyone can learn! All that you need is the willingness and the desire to learn a whole new approach to the organizing process, a change of heart, a change in the way you think about it.

Developing an understanding of what’s been holding you back in all your past efforts, possibly causing you untold emotional suffering. There are very specific skills, techniques and tools that you need to learn that will make organizing manageable, tolerable, attainable and……even fun, especially in hindsight when you will be reaping all the benefits!

Just think of the sense of achievement you will enjoy when you have acquired these new and sustainable skills that will put YOU in control of the clutter, instead of feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and depressed!

If you find yourself in real need for some deeper insights into what it actually takes to successfully and effectively GET TO DEAL WITH THESE ISSUES TODAY, HERE AND NOW, ONCE AND FOR ALL, then this is the e-course for you!

Part One in our five-day series of the FREE, five-part mini-e-course, which is taken straight from this newly released Organizing 1-2-3 eBook.

“Overcoming being Dis-organized: Practical advice for De-cluttered spaces and Organized daily living”

This practical course will help you make the most of PERSONAL AND NATURAL INTERVENTION STRATEGIES FOR DEALING WITH BEING DIS-ORGANIZED and ANXIOUS.

Maybe you started to believe that organizing must be a mysterious talent that only a few privileged people are born with, and the unlucky rest of us will inevitably keep suffering for our lack of knowledge in that area.

But there is hope to get out of your maze … even for the most notoriously disorganized person! You can turn yourself around! We can learn to be smart and outsmart our messy problem! You can tackle this and achieve success!

Organizing is much more than just throwing the clutter out. It is about establishing new and invigorating environments that will inspire you to unleash your creative thinking. It will give you a sense of your own personal power and develop the sweetest sense of achievement that will motivate you to no end in reaching far more than you ever thought you were capable of.

Best of all, it will free you to pursue the higher goals, dreams and ideals you have in life. You will have so much more time than you ever thought possible by living the life you thought could only be a dream….. your spirit will soar free in stead of being chained to the grinding despair of constantly drowning in oceans of clutter!

The constant stress from living with a chronic clutter problem can possibly affect your health. It makes a person feel overwhelmed and powerless to change things around them.

With so much disorder and unnecessary items about, you will find it is difficult to be focused and life will feel more and more like a meaningless struggle. Along with your energy, your spirit seems to sag and you may lose interest in life and feel depressed. Don’t allow things to slip out of control so far! It is time to dig in. Get your space organized, get back in control!

Part Two "Organizing 1-2-3 FREE Mini-eCourse"

“Overcoming being Dis-organized: Practical advice for De-cluttered spaces and Organized daily living”

TODAY, we are continuing our discussion on OVERCOMING BEING DIS-ORGANIZED, and more strategies you may want to implement to cope better, while working on getting rid of the CLUTTER once and for all. You need your family’s support to maintain your new organizing systems once you have conquered the clutter.

Learning and practicing better communication skills is a wonderful way to reconnect to your family and heal relationships that may have been damaged. Three basic skills are invaluable and critical to enabling families to function properly on all levels:

  •         The ability to listen to and hear each other respectfully without interruptions
  •         Respecting each other’s individuality and right to own opinions
  •         The ability to distinguish behaviors from persons so that undesired behavior may be rejected but never the person (Asking the person to change behavior rather than judging or blaming him or her personally)

Suffering as result of being disorganized is a most personal, intimate and emotionally painful matter that affects one’s self-image, so one tends to focus on one’s imperfections and shortcomings and starts to question one’s self-worth. If you are discouraged and feel as if your whole life is disintegrating under the weight of this problem, then the Organizing 1-2-3 eBook is for you!

Anxiousness and irritability often results, as well as secrecy, shame and withdrawal, as the individual realizes that his or her behavior is not desirable or understandable to others, so social events are avoided. People that continue to live in cluttered, messy conditions may even experience depression.

We have to learn how the inner drive mechanisms work and, more importantly, how to change things - only then will we have the knowledge and power to overcome the natural setbacks that may occur and gradually start to control the compulsion to procrastinate and aggravate the situation further.

Disorganized people deal with their embarrassment and emotional pain in different ways, like avoidance of other people, hiding, denying, over compensation or costly interventions just to get rid of the nightmare.

Are you there too?

Again, thank you for reading Part Two in our five-day series of the FREE, five-part mini-e-course, which is taken straight from this newly released Organizing 1-2-3 eBook. We will now continue on to Part Three
of this mini-ecourse below.

Part Three "Organizing 1-2-3 FREE Mini-eCourse" 

“Overcoming being Dis-organized: Practical advice for De-cluttered spaces and Organized daily living”

In order to create a lasting solution, ask probing questions first, plan well and then attempt to organize the disarray afterwards in a rational, unemotional and well planned way. First, think everything through and design a system based on your unique personality and adjusted accordingly.

You need to design an environment that is a reflection of who you are and the way you operate. Your aim is to create an environment that you find easy to maintain because it comes natural to you and is tweaked to your needs. Most people think that when they get organized they have to change who they are. That is why their systems don’t last or work for long before they fall back into bad patterns and ways.

You keep trying to retrain and force yourself to be more disciplined and do things differently to what comes natural to you and what you like and feel most at ease and comfortable with. Come up with alternatives that allow you to work where you are most comfortable, like doing your bills on the kitchen table instead of the back office. Adjust things according to your natural inclinations and habits. Make it work for you and not against you to avoid frustration and the sense of failure. Set yourself up for success and not for failing in your own eyes.

It is possible to adjust your lifestyle to promote your general well being and state of mind. How I live and feel, what I eat, exercise, cope with stress and sleep may make a world of difference in how I cope with the challenge of becoming organized – or not! Are you eating right, drinking enough water each day, getting enough fresh air, sunshine and exercise? If not, you can certainly do something about it.

When deciding whether to save or toss something, use the “W_A_S_T_E” acronym to help you.
 
1. Is the item Worthwhile to keep?
2. Will you be using this item Again? If you haven’t used it in a year, you probably won’t need it again. If you don’t use it, lose it!
3. Can this item easily be found Somewhere else?
4. Will anything serious happen if you Toss it? Toss or donate old stuff when you buy new items, except when you attach huge sentimental value to the items.
5. Do you need the Entire thing?  If not, keep what you need and toss or donate the rest.

My personal choices may make the difference between losing and winning the battle. Even if I don’t have a lot of options in life, there is still one thing I have a choice about - my attitude. I can achieve amazing things if I have the right attitude and put my resolve behind it – not allowing negative feelings to drag me down. “I can achieve anything that I really put my will and heart behind!” Don’t allow the enormity of your challenge to obscure all the avenues for growth and forward movement that may be available to you!

Even if you are at the point of discouragement, somewhere down there in your spirit you still find enough resolve to make that decision of your will to turn your life around. Developing good personal habits are crucial. Whether you love and accept yourself, know who you are, what you want in life and where you are going creates a sense of self-respect, self-esteem, and self-worth that others instinctively feel and will treat you accordingly.

Regardless of your particular case, requirements or obstacles, you will find some help, encouragement and motivation for a happy life here!

Again, thank you for reading this mini-ecourse and I hope Part Three has been informative for you!

Part Four "Organizing 1-2-3 FREE Mini-eCourse"
 
“Overcoming being Dis-organized: Practical advice for De-cluttered spaces and Organized daily living”

Harmonize and Synergize your life, your space and … SIMPLIFY! If your primary goal is to live in a neat, clutter-free environment, think of creating a smart system in which to operate freely, saving you valuable time as result of not having to hunt for lost items. Having more time to spend doing what you enjoy most is everyone’s dream.

By designing your own system, you will find methods of doing things and tasks in easier ways that might otherwise have been a strain. Papers cluster everywhere in every area of the home and need to first be cleaned up in order to create order and clear surfaces. Items lying around without purpose should be put away in designated places.

Designate a place for every item of value in your entire home. Use baskets, bins or drawers to store away items. Use files or folders to organize and store papers. With designated places established, it is much easier to remain organized.

To become organized it is crucial to break out of the very negative, self-defeating and often destructive ways of thinking that often have become so automatic, ingrained – and chronic, that you are not even aware of the negativity of it anymore. This you can do with the strong desire from within yourself to change from this situation where you are just “existing” in and break free to a new life that’s enjoyable and worth living.

Stress makes most challenges worse. Some psychological effects that a very disorganized person may experience include fears, emotional turmoil, frustration, social isolation, hopelessness, despair and even depression and anxiety. Relationship problems and struggles to cope with career demands and just day-by-day functioning as a human being become huge challenges in themselves, because the person loses a balanced perspective on life and focuses only on the condition that has become the problem that their life revolves around.

To decrease stress you may consider exploring relaxation and breathing disciplines, visualization techniques, music, self-awareness, mindfulness and consciously choosing to approach life from a positive point of view.

Organizing is not a goal or an end in itself. It is not a destination, but a significant doorway to achieving your dreams and higher goals, a better life, more time and energy to enjoy the things you love and that are important to you. It is a powerful motivator, and it’s absence is as powerful a discouragement.

You are designing a system that achieves far more than clean counter tops. Learning the skills to be organized is the greatest gift that you can ever give yourself! Applying these skills that you can learn is a way of taking care of yourself and greatly improving your sense of well-being. Achieving success in learning organizing skills will enable you to have time to serve others much better as you will be in control of your own situation, no longer discouraged, anxious or depressed!

Part Five "Organizing 1-2-3 FREE Mini-eCourse"

“Overcoming being Dis-organized: Practical advice for De-cluttered spaces and Organized daily living”

Your final Part Five of your five-day "Organizing 1-2-3 FREE Mini-eCourse" is here! We stress yet again at this point that no TWO individuals are the same, neither will face the same circumstances, challenges or have similar obstacles to overcome. If you want to have more time to do the things you enjoy, organizing yourself is KEY! That is why it is so utterly important that you take a hands-on and proactive approach for making a difference in your own life. IT IS UP TO YOU AND IN YOUR HANDS!

To succeed and push through your organizing project you need a strong motivation "beyond” the clutter, a compelling reason, a goal you seriously want to reach. Think about the space you want to organize and ask yourself why do you want to do it. What is your compelling reason? What big picture goal in your life are you going to accomplish because that space is organized? This goal will be your compelling reason and your beacon to work towards completing the whole process.

Why try to remember everything? Help your memory by writing things down immediately when you think of what needs to be done. Prioritize your lists. Plan ahead for the next day and assign priorities to the tasks you need to do according to their importance. Planning can save you enormous amounts of time. It is important to have a motivated and positive “I CAN remember” and “I CAN do it” attitude.

Simplify your space and life! Create a simple organizing system. Zones are key. Organize any space in different zones of activity and group similar or related items or required tools together close to where the activity happens. Create places for things and assign designated places for grouping related items together close to the relevant activity zones. Then your space will work for you and help you maintain order in a natural way. Develop an efficient and very simple model to use in every space you have to organize. Divide the space in activity zones, where everything needed is stored at it’s point of use in cute, functional and efficient containers. All you need is right there!

Very important is the healing of relationships, where everyone works together for the common good to create harmony. This is worth striving for and may need some personal sacrifice, unselfishness and a very mature approach. This will make for good character building for everyone involved.

Awareness of the chaos they create and the dire need to change towards becoming more organized, and lots of encouragement instead of rejection and resentment will go a long way to help a person to grow into an attitude of honestly wanting to better themselves through acquiring and developing those organizing skills, as well as the indispensable self-discipline that is vital for success. The decision to change must come from deep inside the core of the person involved. He or she needs to choose for him or herself and then act upon it. IT IS POSSIBLE!!!

If we want to change, develop and grow, we can't let fear hold us back.

Once we understand why we believe and behave as we do there are many things we can do that let go of the past and move forward, develop more accurate, positive feelings about ourselves and to develop feelings of being in control and confidence, seeing reality as it is without the negative self-talk! Understanding your own behavior and that of others, acceptance of our own 'faults' and those of others and appreciating the effect of disorganized behavior on others can go a long way to help YOU stand up and deal with the mess right NOW!!!!

NOW IT IS UP TO YOU to foster a strong mental attitude towards your challenge. LET THE ORGANIZING 1-2-3 eBOOK WORK FOR YOU TO RID YOU PERMANENTLY OF THE SHADOW OF BEING DISORGANIZED! Discover A ROOM BY ROOM PLAN AND ACTION STRATEGY TO TAKE CHARGE AND LIVE AN ORGANIZED LIFE!

GET YOUR (TIDY) LIFE BACK! IT’S POSSIBLE! YOU CAN BE ORGANIZED! PUT YOURSELF BACK IN CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE! TODAY! YOU CAN DO IT!!!
