Having a Professional Organizer Increases Your Productivity

This one goes back to that reduced stress level that we talked about. An organized space in inspiring. You’re more creative and you work more efficiently when you are in a space that you love, and when everything has a place. Plus, imagine everything you’ll get done when you know exactly where all of your supplies are and things are strategically placed so that they are easy to access.

Having a Professional Organizer Saves You Money

Time Is money and money is time. Not only do disorganized spaces cost you time, they cost you money. How many staplers and pairs of nail clippers have you bought to replace the ones you can never find? Or late fees have you encountered because of that buried, forgotten bill in your mail pile? You may have even bought organizing supplies with the best of intentions, but there are so many products out there, and you didn’t know what would work best, so now those supplies are sitting in a bag, unused. So many people have spent so much money on their disorganized space, and they’ve gotten no value from that cash. Yes, hiring an organizer is an up-front investment, but it’s just that. It’s an investment, and it pays for itself time and again when you have an efficient, functioning space.

Having a Professional Organizer Saves You Time

How much time have you wasted looking for your keys? Or that one paper with really important information that you thought for sure was on the counter? Your time is precious, and that extra 5-10 minutes looking for things several times per day adds up to hours and hours of lost time. An organized space will save you from that lost productivity. Plus, hiring an organizer allows you to spend your time doing what you like during the organizing process.

Having a Personal Assistant or Professional Organizer Reduces Stress Level

·Chaotic spaces increase our stress levels. Clutter makes us feel overwhelmed which stifles our creativity and productivity and leaves us feeling constantly rushed and behind schedule. In which area of your home do spend the most time? Now imagine that space with everything cleaned out, beautifully sorted + labeled. Would you want to spend more time in that space? Of course you would! Because beautiful spaces are calming and inspiring.

Need some decluttering in your life? Here's a list of 50 Easy Things to Declutter Right Now. Im available to help you through the process. Call and make an appointment today.

Depending on the nature and condition of the item, you may decide to throw it away/recycle it, donate it, use it up, sell it, or keep it (but make sure it has a designated home). Without further ado, 50 easy things to declutter right now:

1. Expired food in the fridge, freezer and pantry. Toss any spices that don’t smell fresh anymore. Toss the unidentified food that’s in the freezer. What are the chances you’re ever going to eat it?? Same goes for things you’ve opened, tried, and are putting off finishing. If you don’t like it, get rid of it!
2. Piles of papers lying around. Get a shredder for anything with personal info on it.
3. Old calendars
4. Pens and markers that no longer work
5. Magazines
6. Newspapers
7. Mugs - most people could stand to get rid of a few
8. Drinking glasses - same as above
9. Duplicate kitchen items (knives, serving spoons, peelers, graters, misc. gadgets, etc.)
10. Small appliances you never use but are holding onto out of guilt
11. Toys your kids don't like and have outgrown
12. Receipts that you no longer need
13. Junk drawer(s)
14. Recycle old batteries that are lying around
15. Broken, ignored, or half-chewed pet toys
16. Old, torn, mismatched ugly pillowcases and sheets that haven’t seen the light of day for 10 years. Chances are you’re holding onto a sheet set that no longer fits any bed you own.
17. Towels that are never used (many vets will take these)
18. Old, expired medication (many pharmacies will take these)
19. Expired and never-used makeup and bath/body products. I had a huge stash of bath products I gave my mom because I never take baths. You probably don’t need 32 lipsticks and six dried-up tubes of mascara either. Or those 15 travel-sized shampoos you brought home from various hotels three years ago. If it smells funky or has a changed color/texture, it's time to get rid of it!
20. Wire hangers. Some dry cleaners will even take them back.
21. Dried out nail polish or nail polish you simply don't use
22. Plastic storage containers - especially when you're missing lids
23. Water bottles
24. Travel mugs (somehow we end up collecting them)
25. Vases - especially ones from the florist
26. Garden equipment duplicates/unused items
27. Shoes you dislike or don't fit right
28. Decorative knick knacks you're tired of looking at and knocking over whenever you're cleaning aka "dust traps"
29. Scented candles. For some reason I used to hoard these. Now I actually use the ones I have and don’t have a stockpile that will last me 20 years taking up space. Use them or get rid of them.
30. Cleaning supplies you keep but don't use
31. Extra flashlights (how many do you really need?)
32. Take empty bottles to the bottle depot and get a refund
33. Books you'll never read again
34. Miscellaneous garbage in your vehicle
35. Hair accessories (bobbi pins, elastics, hair clips you never use etc.)
36. Notebooks/notepads that are full or you never use
37. Sporting equipment that's never used
38. Anything that's broken and you haven't gotten around to fixing
39. Costume jewelry you don't wear
40. Winter clothing (how many scarves, hats, and pairs of gloves do you really need?)
41. Old, stretched out, ill-fitting swimwear
42. Old, stretched out and holey, ill-fitting undergarments
43. Car maintenance items that are expired or unused (I think anyone who has a garage probably could get rid of some)
44. Unused organizational containers that don't work for you.
45. Old electronics (computers, cell phones, etc.) that are taking up space somewhere. You may need to spend a bit of time researching proper disposal in your area, but it'll be worth it!
46. Little office supplies like paper clips, rubber bands, Post-it notes, etc. that end up all over the house.
47. Kids' Halloween costumes that won't be worn again
48. Empty CD cases with no signs of the CD
49. Unsubscribe from catalogues you never read and any junk mail you can. Get your bills online.
50. The front of your fridge. Only keep magnets/pictures/etc. that you really like

Can't relax if your house is Messy?
Clutter bombards our minds with excessive stimuli (visual, olfactory, tactile), causing our senses to work overtime on stimuli that aren't necessary or important. Clutter distracts us by drawing our attention away from what our focus should be on. Clutter makes it more difficult to relax, both physically and mentally.

The Benefits of Decluttering Your Life:
There are many benefits to owning fewer possessions. Even then, it’s tough to move into action. That is… until the many benefits of getting rid of clutter reveal themselves:

Less to clean. Cleaning is already enough of a chore, but having to clean around things you have zero emotional attachment to (or worse, actively dislike) makes cleaning the house much more stressful.

Less to organize. Finding things suddenly become easier. Things don’t just “disappear” anymore. You can actually move around your home and enjoy the space, instead of moving around things that are in the way.

Less stress. Looking around at the clutter is a nausea-inducing sight once your home becomes cluttered enough. Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to look around and see a home you love?

Less debt. Spending less time shopping for material possessions and adding to the clutter means your wallet and bank accounts remain fuller, your credit cards’ statements are lower, and your home doesn’t get filled with costly things you don’t need.

More financial freedom. Most American households live paycheck to paycheck (59% according to a recent survey done by Charles Schwab back in May 2019.) Nearly half of those surveyed carry credit card debt. Decluttering, paired with minimalism, will help you build up savings to keep you protected in case of unexpected emergencies.

More energy for your greatest passions. With less debt, more financial freedom, and a clean home, you can now focus your energy on the things you enjoy instead of worrying about “Keeping up with the Joneses.” This will ultimately make you happier.

Ok, so now you know the benefits of decluttering your life, but you may be getting tripped up by the very next question… where in the world do you begin?
