 Organization Makes for More Summer Fun!
So, these past few weeks I have been challenged by having more on my agenda than is ideal. It's all good stuff, there is not a single thing I want to trade away. I suppose I can count myself very lucky. However, it has caused a certain level of stress. The stress is coming from the fact that I don't want to disappoint people. As a matter of fact, I wish there was a little more of me to go around, so I could please certain people even further. Alas, that isn't going to happen. I have to accept that I cannot say yes to everything, even though I want to.
But enough about my embarrassment of riches. What I really want to talk about is how being organized has allowed me to say yes to much more than would otherwise be possible. Because I have my ducks in a row, I can go off and have some fun without worrying that anything is going to come crashing down while I am gallivanting about.
This begs the question, how does being organized pay off for you? Outside of being able to find what you need when you need it, what are some added benefits of living an organized life?
One big benefit that comes to mind is being able to say yes to impromptu events without worrying about playing catch up later. Lots of people shy away from spur of the moment fun. Often because they know they wouldn't be able to relax and enjoy themselves with all the clutter they have hanging around. Remember clutter can be physical, like piles of stuff adorning your living space. Or it can be mental, like a never ending to do list that taunts you 24/7.
During the precious summer months the above benefit is definitely my favorite. To be able to take a leisurely evening stroll just because the weather is sublime. Or to grab a book and head to the beach for the afternoon, without having preplanned it. That's good stuff! Organization really makes it possible.
Tell me, why do you live an organized life? For me, being able to celebrate summer is one of the best reasons.
