The Staying Organized Survival Guide

The Staying Organized Survival GuideAt last, having spent two months working on my book, The Staying Organized Survival Guide is ready for publication. Phew!

It’s written especially for those who know HOW to get organized but can never seem to STAY organized … which was me until a few months ago when my system, which hinges on incorporating an organizing slot into your daily routine, began to take shape.

I actually used the system to GET organized as well as to STAY organized but I didn’t want to write another book that takes readers room by room and talks them through how to organize everything from cutlery to linen. There are plenty of great books out there that do that already.

Instead, I wanted to help those people, like myself, that compulsively consume organizing books and online information, so know a lot of what they SHOULD DO but never actually TAKE CONSISTENT ACTION over the long term.

Short term, yes. I’ve had my fair share of frenzied organizing weekends but the rot soon crept back in and it was very demotivating to start all over again a few months later.

Instead I built 15 minute bite sized chunks of organizing into my daily routine. I established the organizing habit, began to anticipate when my willpower was waning and learnt to overcome and deal with setbacks as they arose. I also studied highly organized people and identified their key strategies that I needed to replicate to be able to stay organized.

To make getting the organizing habit less overwhelming, my book asks you to try these ideas for only 30 days to see how you get on. You can do anything for 30 days right? What’s the worst that can happen. You’ve spent 15 minutes a day for 30 days and you’ve made PROGRESS on your organizing journey!

  1. I can never seem to motivate myself to keep things organized. Every time I get our house organized it seems to take no time for it all to get crazy again. So the work put in feels futile I guess. Tips on keeping the momentum up would be really useful!!

  2. hi, i really would love it as in the past i could not make it to get 15 min time. either i start something and end up redoing the whole thing, which will take a day or i just leave it and say , maybe tomorrow

  3. We certainly need advice on the staying organized front. It is so difficult once you’ve got there to find that it doesn’t stay like that!! Is it really a never ending drudge? All help gratefully appreciated!!

  5. Just finished your book… enjoyed it! I finished day 2 of my 15 minute a day organizing. Have to say it is hard not to continue to do something else when I am finished a hot spot. I wish I would have taken before and after pictures of the drawers I cleaned. I still may do after so I can remember how they look and if they work out or it needs adjusting.
    Thanks!

  6. Hi Laura

    I’m so glad you enjoyed it and hope it works for you over the long term.

    I know it’s hard to stop when you’re motivated by a quick success, but I found that if I carried on, especially for a big session, it really demotivated me the next day – I was either sick of it from the previous day’s efforts or I felt obliged to try and do another big session and that put me off even doing the 15 minutes. The idea is to build the habit so you do the 15 minutes automatically – whether you’re motivated or not!

    Please take some pictures from now on – I’d love to see what you’ve achieved!
