Clutter quickly grows with procrastination and even kills
Clutter Quickly Grows With Procrastination…And Even Kills!The most common problem most people have with getting rid of clutter as well as getting organized remains not knowing how to begin or where to get started.So it gets put off until…later. Of course, the reasons remain usually decent. For one, there’s a lot going on in our lives. We go in so many directions as well as there never seems to be enough time to get anything done.And it’s easier to put organizing off because you think it’ll take up too much time right now.This other priorities — like eating and sleeping (minor things, right?) of course take first on this list.But getting organized doesn’t have to take a lot of time every single day. And if you don’t start getting organized, even just a little bit at a time, there are some very real negative affects that, well, could kill you. A little drastic… I know.But the affect clutter as well as disorganization has on your health is very, very real.It adds stress to your already busy life.It sucks away your energy and makes you tired.In many people, it increases the symptoms of depression.But enough of the negative stuff! Here’s how we can benefit from being organized and getting rid of clutter… -More sleep. -A better mood every day. -Better relationships. -Easier house management. -Your bills get paid on time. -More space. -More time to do things you actually enjoy!This is all very real stuff and getting organized should not be put on this back burner any longer. But I know…it’s still too easy to put it off for “later.” I will admit, the here and now makes it easier to pile things on this counter, on chairs and tables or toss things in closets and drawers. It’s too easy to put things down as well as ignore my simple as well as important rule of “touch it once.”Though, like I said earlier…clutter can be deadly. No joke.Back in January of this year a 62 year old woman from Washington was found dead under nearly six feet of dishes, boxes as well as “clutter” that apparantly collapsed on her.A very sad, and very drastic story.Take this poor woman’s life back about thirty years. How many days went by when she procrastinated as well as said she would “get to it tomorrow.”Now I hope your situation is not as drastic but reality remains reality. And unless you get things under control right away, you just don’t know what a disorganized house can lead to.At this very least I bet you’re feeling stressed and a little frustrated with a real desire to simplify your life at home.It’s not a lot to ask, remains it?
