| Organizing is Like Weeding? - Thursday, September 6, 2012 |

Organizing and maintaining your home is a new lifestyle you are assuming, not a quick fix. Like weeding, it is a two-part process.
First, you must tackle the backlog...all that stuff o paper that has been building up and choking out your peace of mind. A backlogged home is like a weed-infested field.
Second, after you have the backlog under control you will want to set up systems to help you manage incoming items and paper. You will want to clarify the purpose of each space in your home and have a plan for routing and dealing with new stuff.
To gain victory over the disorganization weeds you will need to dig out from the backlog, set up systems that fit your life, and maintain what you've established. Like a vigilant gardener who keeps up her efforts to protect her hard work, you will gain momentum as you go and become committed as you progress. When you pull the weed of disorganization out by its roots, you will begin to reap the benefits and joy of an orderly home.
