How to Start Organizing Your Space
A professional organizer’s guide to kick-starting decluttering and organizing for 2024.
A professional organizer’s guide to kick-starting decluttering and organizing for 2024.
Welcome to 2024!
It’s the time of year when new beginnings abound and we want to give you the secret ingredient to organizing success. Whether you prescribe to new years resolutions, or are just ready to make a change, we’re ready to share our #1 tip for starting your organizing journey!
Let Me Introduce Myself
I’m Kaytlyn Beakhouse, the Owner and Lead Organizer at Sort & Simple Professional Organizing. I have a passion for simplicity, efficiency and sustainability. Our team of expert organizers supported over 100 individuals on their organizing journey last year, and we want to help you get started too!
How do I get organized?
You might be thinking the first step is to declutter. While that typically is a major part of the process, there’s something we need to do first. Before attempting to make decisions about what to let go of or keep, it is essential to identify your goals and motivators.
That’s right. Before you break a sweat moving boxes, shuffling papers and emptying out drawers, we need to sort out what we are working towards and why. Not only will this help you work towards a specific goal, it’s going to empower you to make intentional decisions.
STEP 1: VISUALIZE YOUR SPACE
Close your eyes and picture your space transformed. What does it look like?
Likely, you’re already picturing a functional, tidy space where you can easily access and put away items. If it’s an office, there are neat filing systems and a clear desk top. In a bedroom you see calming colours and a floor clear of clothes and clutter.
Let’s keep going. How does the space feel once it’s organized? Maybe your craft room feels inspiring, creative and peaceful. Or a kitchen feels cozy, welcoming and energetic.
From there, what activities are you doing in the space? Identify the specific functions that it serves. In a storage room you might picture yourself stowing away holiday decor with ease, whereas, in a living room you can picture friends and family gathering together with ample space to play games.
Now, I want you to imagine how you feel in this space. Confident, peaceful, happy, excited, relieved - these are many of the common emotions clients are working towards.
STEP 2: WRITE IT DOWN
Having created a clear and specific visualization of your transformed space, it’s important that you write it down. This further solidifies the image you’ve created and turns the vision into articulated thoughts.
TIP: If you share your space with others, do this part together to ensure you’re on the same page.
We’ve made it nice and easy - use our complimentary worksheet to organize your thoughts.
STEP 3: FIND YOUR MOTIVATIONS
With your clear and specific vision identified, take a look over and see if you can spot your key motivators. These are the “why’s” that will keep you working towards your goal.
Here are some examples of visions and their accompanying motivators:
My space will look beautiful. - Motivated by aesthetics.
My space will feel inspiring and creative. - Motivated to have space for hobbies and learning.
I will be able to cook for my family. - Motivated to spend time with loved ones.
I will feel confident in my abilities. - Motivated to grow and improve self-esteem.
List at least three motivators that you can refer to throughout the process. These are going to be paramount to overcoming obstacles like loss of momentum or indecision.
TIP: Post your vision and motivations on a wall to keep you on track.
STEP 4: TIME TO DECLUTTER!
Armed with an inspiring vision and clear motivations, now you’re ready to tackle the decluttering and organizing process!
When you come across items you’re not sure about letting go of, reflect on whether it aligns with your vision. You’d be amazed how many things we have in our homes that don’t match our goals. With your specific goals in mind you’ll be able to make intentional decisions confidently.
TAKE ACTION
It’s time to apply what you’ve learned and to make 2024 the year you declutter and organize.
