Organize & Cherish with The Organized Flamingo

126: How to Stop Overplanning and Start Decluttering


Listen Later

In this episode, we explore the mindset shift from overthinking to intentional action—especially during the months when decision fatigue and “I’ll get to it later” thinking tends to pile up. Whether it’s a storage bin you keep ignoring, digital clutter you keep bookmarking, or inherited items waiting for attention, we walk through how to break the loop of mental overwhelm and take the first doable step.

We also touch on how AI tools can either support or stall your organizing goals, and why this summer is the perfect time to embrace a “do something about it” energy. Small actions count. Let’s get unstuck together.

In this episode we talk about:
  • Why summer is the ideal time to embrace a “less thinking, more doing” approach
  • How to stop using planning, research, or AI tools as excuses for inaction
  • A gentle framework for moving from idea to effort—even when the task feels overwhelming
Mentioned in this Episode:
  • The Fix It or Free It monthly project as an example of micro-action with big results
  • Ways to use AI to support—not sabotage—organizing efforts
  • A simple weekly challenge prompt to help listeners take action right away
