Organizing Can Be Pro-"Found"

Organizing has gained tremendous popularity over the last few years. You see it everywhere you go - in the newspaper, magazines, stores and on TV. So what’s the big fuss?

I was recently asked by a client why I like my job and my answer was easy. “I get to help my clients create the life they want to live.” By setting up simple organizing solutions, my clients are able to pursue other things in their lives that make them happy.

Many benefits come from being organized. Conversely, a lot of opportunities are missed by not being organized. While helping my clients declutter I find three themes that continuously get uncovered or found in the process.

Money is one area directly affected by being organized. Often when sorting through personal belongings and paperwork, I come upon cash, checks and valuable items. I have found as much as $2500 in a single organizing session. Secondly, it is important to have an efficient bill paying system so you can avoid late fees and charges as they can add up quickly. Finally, being organized helps us to eliminate excess. Expensive storage units, costing $200-$500 per month, can really add up over the years. As well, the act of purchasing multiple items when you own them already often occurs when we are disorganized.

In addition to money we lose so much more. Major opportunities, both personally and professionally, are often lost due to disorganization. After organizing a client’s office she emailed me the next day to say she gained a huge piece of business due to her office being organized. She was sure she would not have had that opportunity had she not gone through the organizing process.

Business is just one area where organizing helps us, we also find big personal life events are greatly affected. I have had couples get married, singles create opportunities to meet their soul mate and entertaining among friends has occured after going through the organizing process. Now, this is not a promise that these results will work for everyone, but we see the dramatic impact being organized can have on your life personally and professionally.

Last, but certainly not least, I find that my clients have more fun as a result of being organized. If you are organized you are spending less time managing your household, paperwork, bills and you are spending less mental energy thinking about clutter. As a result, you have more time, space, energy and money to do the things you really enjoy.

So if you like to have fun, if you would like to save money or you would like to be open to opportunities available to you, getting organized is the perfect place to start. Get organized today so you can start living your life!
