Motivational Monday! Organization!!!

Motivational Monday!

Organization!!!

A few weeks ago I asked people what gets them motivated. I received the following responses:

1) Working in an Organized Space

2) Sharing Goals with Someone Else.

3) Creating Lists

4) Keeping a Positive Mindset

5) Debrief Life and Work goals at the end of the day. 

Today we are going to look at number 1~ Working in an Organized space. It's easier to stay motivated and on task if our work space is organized. There is less distraction as your mind isn't as likely to think of doing something else. When your work space is organized, research also shows that we are less stressed. 

I found a great step by step guide to help you get your work space organized.

It will be worth the time in the end to walk through the following steps today! 

1) Sort the items in your office space~ What items do you want to keep in the space? What items do you want to move into a different space?

2) Decide on a where your 'keep pile' is going to go in your office space. Remove all of the items that don't belong. 

The Practical Blog article also recommends items to keep on your desk, inside your desk and on your book shelf. 

So this week, your challenge is to organize your work space! Take a day and get it done... If you can't devote an entire day to the task, create a list of things that you want to get done each day and by the end of the week you will be done! ie. Monday - sort into keep/remove piles and remove the items. Tuesday - decide where the items in the keep piles will go permanently. Wednesday - buy a few items to organize your drawers/bins/book shelf. Thursday - organize your desk. Friday - organize your book shelf. There you go! You are done and ready to go next week! 

Good Luck to You!!! If you feel so inclined, send me a few before and after pictures.  I would love to share in your success!

As always, take a deep breath and embrace your life and all that it brings! Be courageous! Be Bold! Reach for your dreams! 

Annnnd yeeeeees, I've been asked... "you're a Realtor, why are you writing a blog titled 'Motivational Monday'?" To answer the question... Over the years, I've run into many different people, all with very different personalities. I've found that people that have an optimistic and positive outlook on life are happier people. I want to do my part to empower others to be positive. I  want to do my part to empower others to believe in the power of affirmations. I want to do my part to help people believe in themselves again. I want to do my part to make the world a happier place... even if it's just for one person, I will have made a difference.  

Have a Blessed Week! Remember, Success is yours if you are willing to work for it!!!
