Organizing One's Life...

I already cleaned my closet to welcome a new year. - As a symbol of a new beginning since it's new year, I cleaned my wallet and got it organized. Then yesterday, I cleaned my room and organized my closet, ridding of accessories and clothes which I don't need. Then the next big step is to organize my life....how do I get started? That's the big question....

It's New Year, and I'm sure we already have a list of resolutions. In my case, one is that I'd get organized with my life. But it should start with something personal. First, let's organize our wallets or bags. At least I did this already...then the next step is to organize one's closet...get rid of clothes and other accessories accumulated through the years and which have never been used or worn. Gee whiz, I did this too, yesterday. I re-organized my whole room, especially my closet. Then the next big thing is that I'd organize my life....this is something I have yet to do. What about you fellow mylotters, how do you think do we organize our lives after doing the first two? Please share...your valuable insights will be most welcome.

Luckily I'm a fairly organized person to begin with...one thing I DO have to do though, and I find it the most boring thing to do, is to sort out and go through all those papers I've accumulated over time...things that I know I can throw out. I hate doing that as it's not only boring, but so darn time consuming as one has to go through all those papers bit by bit to make sure I'm not throwing out anything of importance. Oh, yes, about organizing one's life in general? Again, it's not like I'm unorganized but I really have to start making real "game plans" or goals to achieve and to make sure I DO achieve them--my one main problem as I see it, is that I have too many interests, too many things and I need like 60 in a day to do a bit of everything. I just have to figure out a good way to balance everything

That's a good point, and truly admirable. Learned a lot from you. I'm eager to lead a more balanced life just like yours. I'm grateful for this sharing... Looking at my own life will be more goal-directed, thanks to you.

I have not done the first two things yet since im still at work and the 3day vacation last Christmas was spent with my kids and my little boy got so sick that i have to be with him all day. This afternoon i will tackle my dirty clothes which is 2 mountains by the way and yes i will clean out our closet and our room for extra baggages...its becoming heavier by the day. Come 2008, i will resign from my work and hopefully big changes will come my way, like having my 3rd baby and starting a small business, im really hopeful this coming year and for years to come. That is how i organize my life. I like this topic anyway, Happy New Year to you all!
