Keeping your personal belongings organized can be a challenge. You might find that it's hard to keep your apartment clean and tidy, especially if you are sharing it with others. However, there are ways to keep your belongings organized even while living in a small space that will help make cleaning easier as well as help make sure everything is where it needs to be when you need it. And it really pays off:
With organization, you will need less stuff.
Being organized will help prevent waste by ensuring that everything you have is useful and easy to find when needed. Most of us have at some point bought something that we now have double because we could not find the original item when we needed it. Consequently, the more organized your life is, the less stuff you'll have to buy.
If you're already overwhelmed by clutter in your home or office and don't know where to start with organization, it can seem like an impossible task. But organizing doesn't have to be hard or expensive: start with one drawer (I am sure you know which one!) and take it from there.
Your things will last longer.
Organization is the key to making sure your stuff lasts longer. Knowing where something is, makes it easier to maintain, which means less wear and tear on your belongings. And if a piece of clothing develops a hole or the handle on your favorite bag breaks, you can easily fix them with the Internet at your side.
Organization also allows you to consistently take advantage of warranties when something breaks. Without organization, these warranties are useless because you won't know how old something is or when it was purchased (and therefore when its warranty expires). If this happens often enough, then eventually all of your goods will be out of warranty! We recommend you use our app to keep track of your items and their warranties to make this an issue of the past.
You'll spend less.
Having your belongings organized will save you a lot of time and money:
You'll spend less time trying to find things, which means you'll have more time for other activities.
You won't waste money on replacing items that you could've found if they were organized.
You won't have to spend money on repairs because you can easily fix it under the warranty you stored in our app or fix it yourself with your well-organized spare parts.
Organization can make your house safer.
With your things well organized, you won't have to worry about tripping over stuff, and you will also have less clutter getting in your way. You'll be able to see where things are, so you won't have them spread all over the floor or shelves that make it difficult for you to find what you're looking for. If items are stored properly and neatly, there is less of a chance that they will fall over on someone when they come into contact with them.
You'll be able to find things quickly.
Organizing your belonging well means that you will always know where they are when you need them, easily saving you time. Here are a couple of tips on how to get there:
Keep things in the same place. It's very easy to lose things if you don't keep a consistent system for storing them. This is particularly true of small items such as keys, wallets, and phones.
Take photos of locations where you keep important items so that you can easily find them again if they go missing.
Use labels on bins or baskets where you store various types of belongings (e.g., "bathroom" or "kitchen").
Designate a space for each category of personal belonging (e.g., clothing).
Use containers when possible instead of boxes or totes; this will help reduce clutter around the house because containers are easier to stack and store neatly than bags or other loose objects
You'll have less stress and anxiety.
The stress and anxiety of living in a messy home can be exhausting. You may find yourself feeling overwhelmed by clutter, which makes it hard to focus on the things that matter most in your life. This leads to feelings of guilt and shame, which are no fun at all!
When you're organized, you'll be able to take care of important tasks more efficiently—from making dinner to getting dressed for work—and feel less stressed about trying to find things when they're needed most (like your keys). You'll also be better able to step back from your daily responsibilities and spend some time doing creative activities like reading or painting that allow you to relax and recharge your batteries.
Being organized is good for you and for the environment too!
Being organized can help you save money, improve health and well-being, reduce stress and anxiety (and the resulting physical symptoms), add to your quality of life, and more.
Organization is also good for the environment! Keeping things clean and neat will help them last longer and prevent waste that often ends up in landfills. And when you have a clutter-free home or office, it's easier to maintain cleanliness overall.
The benefits of organization are pretty clear, and the only thing standing in your way is you. So go do it! Get out that drawer and start organizing today. Don’t worry, you won't have to get it done all at once — just start with one drawer or shelf at a time. You'll be amazed at how much better life gets when you take charge of what's around you instead of letting things pile up until they become overwhelming.
