So in this article, you will learn 5 practical tips that will help you organize your life better, but, before diving into the “how” you must learn the “why” to organize.

Study says that viable time management not only builds your efficiency but enriches your life as well as the individuals around you. Just imagine you can have the time to read more or travel or take those piano classes which you have been dreaming about for years or take your family out for picnic and what not!

Sounds good?

So let’s jump straight into the tips:

  1. Kickstart your day on a positive note!

Well, it may sound as a cliché, but begin with saying thanks to god for this brand new day and new opportunity, stretch a little bit, and before leaving your room make your bed!

This is a proven fact that making your bed in the morning gives you a sense of accomplishment thus marking a positive start to the day.

2. Make it clean!

Mahatma Gandhi once said that work is worship. Yeah, you guessed it right!

Keep your Study/work table clean. Just keep those documents and books that are currently in use on your workstation. If possible keep a small plant by your side.

3. Plan your outfit!

Plan your closet a week ahead! Trust me it will require just an hour or less than that.

During the weekend take out your garments and plan an outfit for the upcoming week for your office/school.

Get them clean, ironed, and arrange properly. It will save you from the headache of choosing your outfit every single morning!

4. Minimalism is the key!

Keep your stuff limited be it your garments, furniture, gadgets and so forth.

More clutter means more stress, so eliminate all the additional stuff which isn’t required, and before purchasing anything just ask one thing, do I really need this? Getting the Marie Condo vibes :)

5. The little black book!

Keep a little planner. Do not make long excel sheets or make timetables for each hour, since this is not only unrealistic but you might also feel down if you do not fulfill them on time.

So, keep a small planner and just write things that are to be done today, just a rough idea of your priority task, or keep a mind map.

Bottomline

There are things in life that we have no control over so don’t stress over that rather take the charge of the things which are in your hand and trust me these little actions can change the course of your life!
