Tip Of The Day - Being Organised

Tips Of The Day... 3 Comments »

My tip for today is to BE ORGANISED!

Now I know this is a good tip because I did actually try it once :)

When you are disorganised you just have no idea what you are doing from one minute to the next ane your life will generally be quite stressful.  Trust me I know, this is a big problem that I have and that is one of my big goals - to get organised.

On the few occasions that I have been organised I was really quite surprised at how much I actually managed to achieve.  I worked so much more efficiently because I knew what I was doing and I could see clearly.

Maintaining that organisation is my problem and I’m sure if I stuck with being organised long enough it would become habit. 

When talking about being organised I am talking about:

  • having a plan for your day
  • having tidy surroundings
  • in particular having a tidy desk and office
  • having a structure in place that enables you to juggle your internet marketing as well as your home life
  • having good time management skills

My desk and office is so messy that I’ve moved my laptop out to the dining room table.  Now that is messy too and at dinner time we eat with our plates on our lap sitting on the sofa.  My husband is forever complaining that he wants the table back.  I know that this is not the ideal situation and I know if I tidied up a bit that I would actually get more achieved every day.  I’m actually sharing the table with an extremely pregnant mouse that is about to go into labour any minute - which is quite distracting actually.

One of my biggest problems is getting stuck into a task.  I spend more time thinking about what I have got to do than actually doing it.  My time management skills are non-existant and my house is just full of clutter.

So these tips even though I am sharing them with you, are aimed at myself also.  Perhaps if I write all this it might make me get off my butt and do something about it.

I have goals though and I’ve gone out and bought myself a diary - A4 size with a day to a page.  My plan is that each morning I will open my diary and write a list of what I need to achieve for the day.  A bit of a ‘To Do’ list I guess.  I have done the ‘To Do’ list thing before and it does work.  The main thing with doing a list is to be realistic with what you can achieve in a day otherwise you will end up being disappointed if you are never getting everything achieved.

So that is my tip for today.  If you are already an organised person then I admire you and keep it up.  If you are not then join me in my quest to be organised and to put in place some good time management skills.
