Wednesday Tip: You’re Not the Only One

According to a 2006 study, 43% of Americans classify themselves as disorganized and 75% of American say that their disorganization contributes to their stress levels. Sound familiar? So many of my clients waited a long time before reaching out for help because they felt embarrassed about their disorganization; they felt isolated and like everybody else had it figured out. One of the best ways to keep up with your organizing plan is to find an accountability buddy: someone with whom you share your goals and have regular check-ins to stay on track. People use accountability buddies for achieving weight loss and professional goals as well as quitting bad habits. Being organized is just a series of habits, so buddy up for a greater chance of success. Put it out to your friends or coworkers you like that you want to be more organized and are looking for a partner to cheer each other on. Somebody will be super excited to join you.
