5 Steps of Assessing An Organizing Issue

When faced with an organizing (or lack thereof) issue, I find that the following five goals (steps) work for me:

1. To gather information
2. To define problem areas
3. To determine needs and wants
4. To talk about the cause of the problem areas
5. To create a plan/strategy

These 5 things are a great sequence to follow too. And the hope is that is aligns with the objectives of the client/person/friend/yourself. "They" should want to fix and understand the problem and find a solution. Gathering an accurate assessment of things before you attempt to begin is the way to go.

First... Unclutter

To begin the organizing process, you must unclutter first. You cannot organize until you sift through and get rid of things that are not useful to your purpose. Its easier to get organized with less stuff. As you begin to ready yourself to organize, take 15 to 20 minutes out of your day to unclutter. Eventually you'll get down to the stuff that stays in that area or room and then you can organize.
