Tips for Getting Organized This Spring<\/strong><\/p>\n

De-clutter your digital life. This one sounds pretty overwhelming to many of us. The work inbox is full and your mobile phone is overflowing with photos and videos. It\u2019s time to nip the one right now. Throw on some tunes, grab a glass of wine and go to town with your computer. Delete old emails that you no longer need and organize anything you must save into folders. Regardless \u2013 get it all out of your inbox so that you can focus again. Still got some energy? Move on to your phone \u2013 it\u2019s time to move all those photos and videos over to the cloud and free up some memory for your phone. When you finish these two tasks, you\u2019ll feel ah-mazing.<\/p>\n

Head to your closet. It\u2019s just time to pull it all out \u2013 do a major dump of clothes and shoes right onto your bed or the floor. Make a few piles: donate, sell, dump and keep. Now go to town. On the fence about something? Ask yourself if you\u2019ve worn the piece in the last year \u2013 if you haven\u2019t, say goodbye. This can be a tough one \u2013 but you\u2019ll feel incredible the next time you open that closet door.<\/p>\n

De-clutter your desk. Is your desk at work overwhelming you just like your closet? It\u2019s time to give it a major de-clutter. Just like your email, being overwhelmed by your desk can easily weigh on your performance at work, leaving you struggling to find things or simply frozen by the overwhelming amount of stuff. Take it drawer by drawer and shelf by shelf, saving only what you absolutely need.<\/p>\n

Makeover your makeup. How long has it been since you\u2019ve given your makeup bag or vanity a good overhaul? Feeling overwhelmed by all the old cosmetics you\u2019re clinging onto? It\u2019s time to take a good hard look at what\u2019s still good, what you actually use and what needs to be tossed and replaced. This is the perfect excuse to freshen up your look for spring!<\/p>\n

Kitchen cleanup. What about the kitchen cabinets, pantry, fridge and junk drawers? When is the last time they got a good de-cluttering and cleaning? Tis the season for giving everything a good overhaul \u2013 and the kitchen is the perfect candidate too. Take a good hard look at expiration dates, freezer burn and all the little goodies taking up space in the junk drawer.<\/p>\n

Ready to tackle all of these areas to leave yourself ready for summer with no clutter? How do you declutter?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
