There is no denial that some peo­ple have the gift to get them­selves orga­nized and get their feet in get­ting things done.  Before we pon­der about the gifted abil­i­ties, are there really secrets that they posses, that made them more effi­cient and orga­nized?  Some so-called secrets that you are going to read in a moment will shock you.  We got to say that, even a per­son that is dis­or­ga­nized in his life can learn from the tips and become more effi­cient in what­ever he do.

  1. deskJust do it! Fol­low the Nike tag line.  Just do it and now.  Pro­cras­ti­na­tion leads to get­ting work piled at the later part of your day and life!
  2. Throw your stuff away (with­out think­ing)! Orga­nized peo­ple do not hes­i­tate about throw­ing things away.  They won’t be tempted to keep old worn out appli­ances around “just in case”.  They keep what­ever can be use now.
  3. Get into rou­tine. Make it a habit of doing things at one shot.  Clean the basin when you are using it.  Shine the mir­ror after brush­ing your teeth.  No we are not being clean freaks here.  It’s about doing things at that point of time which won’t be left for a later date.
  4. Put things where it should be. Dis­or­ga­nized peo­ple tend to dump things every­where.  Lit­er­ally every­where.  Orga­nized peo­ple on the other hand keep things in orga­nized man­ner and they know where to retrieve them in future.
  5. Write impor­tant dates on the cal­en­dar. Remem­ber to check the cal­en­dar for impor­tant events.  Orga­nizer peo­ple do it every­day to keep updated of the event up com­ing for the day.
  6. Pick up your­self. If things are left all over the place, take the ini­tia­tive and pick things up, place it where it should be.  Put them away before the mess gets out of hand.
  7. Invest in orga­niz­ing tools. But be sure that you like it and you use it fre­quently.  If the sys­tem is unre­al­is­tic or unhandy, you won’t use it.
  8. Spare the lit­tle energy on small tasks. Many times the small tasks of putting things away and keep­ing things clean take much less time and energy than we think they will. Always remem­ber, every lit­tle tasks com­pleted is a con­tri­bu­tion to com­plete a major task.  While the task is small, it may be sig­nif­i­cant in the long run.
  9. Get your­self a daily plan­ner. Daily plan­ner can be any­thing from a decent cal­en­dar to just a piece of paper.  The key thing is to use it CONSISTENTLY.

Any­one, lit­er­ally any­one can do it.  They are in mat­ter of fact, lit­tle things that we can do every­day with min­i­mal effort.  The real secret is the dis­ci­pline in keep­ing your toes up to these lit­tle things.  For those of you who are strug­gling with dis­or­ga­ni­za­tion, such sim­ple tips can really give you the real boost in efficiency.
