Benefits of Getting Organized

If you think that getting organized just isn't something you can put your mind to right now because you are too busy or you lack the intrinsic motivation to get going consider this:

Data clearly shows that improving your ability at organized living will:

save money
reduce stress
control outcomes
save time...............

...that would mean more time for doing anything you would like to do more of................even nothing!

Now that makes sense!

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to consistently expect that all the supplies and resources you need for your complicated life are there when you need them? clothes, food, toilet paper (the basic necessities of life!)

Wouldn't it be nice if your life, as busy as it is, went along in an orderly way? no surprises, and very few unexpected events to knock you off your daily course?

Wouldn't it be niceto be in control of your life? Is that really possible?

YES.....

The benefits of getting organized can be realized if you:

believe in and assert your organizational rights

balance the amount of stuff coming into and leaving your home

make timely decisions

set up systems and follow them consistently

Barriers

It may not be possible to fully achieve organized living if the skills and abilities that are necessary to make logical decisions, sequence steps in a process or remember information are not fully present.

Not everyone can achieve organized living through intrinsic motivation and reading organizing tips and hints. Real barriers to organizational abilities do exist.

There is well established evidence that certain neurological and psychiatric pathologies will influence tidiness and organizing abilities.

Conditions such as:

.....and even addictions.

These conditions can all influence a person's ability to make the decisions necessary to establish and maintain personal habits that can lead to control.

If a person has one of these barriers present in their life, disorganization is not the result of a lack of intrinsic motivation! Rather the disorganization is the result of the inability of the individual to proceed independently with the process of getting organized.
