Ways I feel instantly organised

Anytime I buy stationery

There is something about buying pretty stationery that makes me feel superbly organized in seconds. I feel like I’m going to be the sort of person who sends hand written cards and decorates gifts with fancy tape.

Do I do any of this? No, but I could and that is what I’m focusing on.

sticking to a budget

Any budget. If I spend less than planned it makes me feel extremely grown up.

doing a task I’ve been putting off

What is about ticking off a to-do on an overdue list that just gives such satisfaction? It can be returning an e-mail or tidying up. When I don’t procrastinate, it really adds to a feeling of calm organisation.

decluttering

I decluttered a cupboard the other day and it made such a difference. What took just a few minutes turned a disorganized few shelves into a super tidy space.

Waking up to a clean kitchen

An evening routine always includes doing dishes and tidying up the kitchen and scullery.

I find that waking and walking into a clean kitchen always sets the tone for the day. Morning coffee just tastes better and I feel like the day gets off to a start.
