Have you ever thought that being (or becoming) organized affects nearly everything else in your life? You don’t think that getting organized is that important? Read on and find out.

Being disorganized causes all sorts of problems, many may not be obvious at first glance.
* Decreased energy levels
* Lack of time for yourself
* Lack of sleep
* Increased stress levels
* Financial strain and wasted money
* Embarrassment (forgetting birthdays, not returning borrowed items, missing important appointments)
* Ineffective multitasking
* Overwhelm
* Forgetfulness and poor memory
* Poor health
* Mental health issues
* Addictions to “drown” the problem

I am sure the list could go on. Feeling bad about yourself and not tackling the problem because it is just too huge is not going to help. Be aware that most people are not naturally organized or born organizers.

It is even more important to get organized when you are not a natural organizer. Where to start? Help is at hand.

Claire McFee is the author of a book called “Organize Your Life” and the co-creator of “Organize Your Life” e-organizers. She has created over 300 lists to help you get organised. Yes, you can print them out, tick things off with a real pen and put them into folders!

Her motto is: “The weakest pen is better than the strongest memory”. She has made a very generous offer to our readers and listeners. Check it out here – www.stretchyourmindandbody.com/blog/oyl
