Yep, I have one in the kitchen and it's filled to the gills. I can rarely close it without having to smash a few things down before slamming it shut. I would be mortified if a friend were to open this drawer, it's a complete chaotic mess of totally random things. But I'd also like to point out that I can proudly list off 95% of the items in there. My point is this...if I know what's in the drawer, and I routinely need to access these things, would you consider it organized? Even though it's a mess?
Sure, I'd love to show off pristine drawers with everything in its perfect little place! But back to the theme of my last post 86 400 Seconds in a Day I think I've listed the reasons that I can't seem to find that time to get my drawers, cabinets, and closets all perfected. It at least makes me feel better that it's on my to-do list. See? I'm organized! ...to a degree...
I've read several articles in the past talking about ways to better manage your time and get organized. I read it and I am am energized! Ready to take on that drawer, that pantry...anything! And here I am...still thinking about it. One of the best methods that seems to be something I could handle is the Pomodoro Technique. Have you heard of this? You basically break down periods of work into 25 minute intervals. So I'm thinking maybe I go a bit more realistic and set aside 15 minutes a day to organize things. In theory, it sounds awesome...just need to put it into practice.
