Here are some of our favorite tips for recycling that are not only better for the environment but may even help someone in need.

Often I see my clients get overwhelmed and try to do a marathon organizing session that ends in burnout. Choosing a project that is huge can be so intimidating. To stay motivated, break large projects into smaller, more manageable pieces. Instead of trying to do the entire kitchen at once, declutter the cabinet under the kitchen sink or prune your Tupperware stash.

That feeling of accomplishment and pride that comes with starting and completing an organized space is the secret to staying motivated! That little amount of time once a day (or once a week) organizing one small space will not only look better but you will now have made organizing a lifelong habit.
