Get Organized Day is celebrated on April 26 every year. It’s a day dedicated to cleaning up and decluttering your homes and offices. Did you know? Research has shown that not only does an organized space help you to save time, it also gives you a sense of mental clarity. Many people are swimming in a sea of clutter, frustrated, and confused. Getting organized also enhances productivity, and is closely linked with happiness, restfulness, and a sense of fulfillment! HISTORY OF GET ORGANIZED DAY Every year, on April 26, the day is dedicated to proper planning, cleaning up, and decluttering — Get Organized Day! While the exact origin and actual history of Get Organized Day are unknown, the aim is obvious — to eliminate the mess. You probably know someone whose living space is an awful mess, or whose working space is an eyesore — or maybe that ‘someone’ is you! Mountains of clothes scattered across the room, books and papers lying loose everywhere, and dozens of Post-Its unattended. Calls, emails, and unreturned texts. Appointments and missed deadlines. Laundry and dishes undone. If you often find yourself hurtling through heaps of papers, bills, and books to find your keys while dashing off to work every morning, you need this day to organize your space and life. Disorganized people are rarely productive. Many of them are grumpy, anxious, stressed, and exhausted even before their day begins. This is because they waste ample time trying to locate necessary documents or some other important stuff they need to start their workday. Organization has many amazing physical and psychological benefits. First, there’s a sense of happiness and bliss that comes with living or working in a clean space. Next, you save time as you no longer have to dig through a heap of clutter — or recruit a recovery team — to help you find whatever essential item you need for your workday. Since you know where your things are, and how to find them, you’re in better control of your space. While getting organized may seem like a daunting task at first, you’ll get to love it more as you get into it. In the end, you’ll discover that taking time to organize your things is not as difficult as it seems if you’re willing to put in the effort!
