Organize your
move
We approve:
Get Organized at The Container Store!
Get organized
at the same time
as your move? Why Not?
Moving is a big job,
you could even say it's a
huge job by the time you
pack them up,
box them and then
ship them. But it will be much easier if
we spend the time needed to get organized and stay organized - both before we
move, as we move and after we arrive at our new home.
Recently I read
a a survey taken concerning people's most common New Year's Resolutions....guess
what was in the top 10? Yes, "organize it!"
Gary Ryan Blair, "The Goals Guy" writes:
"Get Organized: Resolve this year to plan your days, reduce interruptions,
clean off your desk, say "No", and make detailed lists. The benefits of getting
more organized include being able to save time as you no longer look for the
same things over and over again or need to replace things you can't find at all.
You will reduce stress because when you know where everything is, there's no
last-minute rush to find what you need and get out the door on time for school,
soccer practice, or that important business meeting. You will also find yourself
being much more productive, as all the time you once spent looking for things
can now be used to do more important or more enjoyable tasks. Most people define
being organized as quickly and easily being able to find what you need. While
this is certainly true, organization is so much more. The ability to stay
organized lets you focus on accomplishing your most important goals. That's the
true benefit of being organized. Life Will Not Go According To Plan If You Do
Not Have a Plan"
Does it Make sense to organize
BEFORE you Move?
As it relates to getting organized before, during, and
after a relocation, think
about the process for a moment. Take a mental photo of your bedroom
closet. got it? Ok. Now, what do you feel? Yes, I did
say "feel." For instance, do you feel a sense of pride because you are in
the 2% of people who are actually proud of their closet organization?
Or is there a sense of dread and failure that you let it get this far out of
control? Look, we at packupthehouse.com
are NOT here to berate you about what you did in the past or what you should
have done but didn't...no, we're here to help you think through the
possibilities of creating a system that will allow you to stop saying "I've got
to organize my house!" - Because it WILL be organized by the time you
place it in
the moving truck. And like we
said in the beginning, making a move from one home to another is a great time to
organize a closet, organize your garage, and all of your storage areas.
