Get Organised Month (January 2014)

Well another year has been and gone, millions of presents were opened over Christmas, millions of calories were eaten over Christmas, plus millions of units of alcohol. But, once New Year’s Eve arrived, millions of New Years Resolutions were made. . . and most were broken within 24 hours, and many more will be broken within the first week, if not the month.

So as January is ‘GET ORGANISED MONTH’, I decided NOT to make New Year resolutions, but to get myself organised and go! I've made several goals I want to achieve this year, but instead of aiming for the finish line, I've organised myself so that I'm continuously taking steps to achieve the goal.


For example:
If you want to become fitter. Start by taking baby steps. First go for a 10 minute brisk walk, then take stairs instead of lifts, walk to the local shops, don’t drive! Turn the music up loud and dance whilst you clean your house. Join a fitness class.

Before you know it, you will be fit as a fiddle. The aim is to keep it fun, keep it simple and keep organised. Make sure you're allowing plenty of time into your daily routine for your goals!

Make sure you give yourself time to organise yourself!
My top tips for getting organised in January ~
  1. Make a list of your goals, and how you will begin to achieve them (Baby steps remember!)
  2. Set a small amount of time aside each day to keep on top of your organising (15 minutes is a good start)
  3. Have a clear out at home (Think clear home, clear mind)
  4. Write down everything you need to do each week, put it somewhere you can glance at it regularly, that way you won’t forget a thing (Use it for Birthdays, Anniversaries, meetings, shopping etc)
  5. Keep it fun and simple. Nobody wants to do something they do not enjoy, so if you have to do a task which you detest, try to change it so it’s at least bearable. Or if you have the power of mind over matter, just tell yourself you LOVE it and get it done. By the time you think about how much you don’t want to do something, it could already be done!

Check lists can be very helpful ... but remember to DO, not just WRITE! 
Please feel free to let us know how you're getting on with your organising this January!
