Tips: Top 3 Organizing Tips for busy moms trying to work from home, raise a family and manage a household.
1. Start with realistic goals and expectations for the project.
- Example: Do you want it to look like a magazine or are you okay with it looking tidy & working efficiently? Do you want to invest in the most popular new products or do you want to use what you have?
2. Include the whole family in the decluttering and organizing process.
- Example: Have each child select their top 10 toys and then have a conversation about donating some of the remainders to those in need. Ask older children to help with a garage sale let them keep what they earn from selling their stuff.
3. Set up a very basic organizing system that works for you and your family so that picking-up, finding things, and putting things away is as quick and easy possible. (If you have to think twice about where an item may be, simplify the system further until there is only one place it could possible live).
- Example: Have the hamper right where the kids change their clothes. Streamline the amount of clothing that each child has to cut down on excessive piles of laundry & overloaded closets. Store all of the sporting goods in one area of the home. Consolidate categories of items that are scattered all over the house.
