You know what I’m talking about, right! That third drawer down in your kitchen. The one treasure chest that holds an array of items that are mismatched, clunky, chunky or just simply a homeless, miscellaneous floater. My third drawer down currently houses: Local take-away menus Tea towels Elastic bands (off the local paper delivery) Balloons […]

We talk a lot about ways to simplify your life, stay organized, keep overwhelm at bay and in general, make your life as enjoyable as possible with minimal stress. A recent Facebook post however got me thinking about all the little things we do to avoid housework. Or make it look like we’re doing something, […]
After a couple of early starts last week decided to wise up and get organized. I started to plan out my fast, no-fuss breakfast menu, to help keep time on my side. You see, I love to snooze. I know I may be running against the clock later, but my subconscious encourages me to enjoy […]

When my little one fell over this week and took some skin off, I headed straight to the medicine cupboard. Naturally. Not that long ago, I sent some time sorting and organizing this cupboard, so feeling rather confident, I told my son, ‘don’t worry, Mommy has just the thing for that!’. But I didn’t. Oh my, […]

You know what I’m talking about! The screeching halt that overcomes you once you find something ‘loved and lost’ while trying to declutter. For me, it’s photographs. I can’t help myself. I get swept away in memories and then, before I know it, waaaay too much time has passed and my declutter task remains unfinished. […]

Recently, a Get Organized Wizard subscriber requested our help. She was coping well with new challenges and tasks she was facing in her everyday life. But she had a deep, dark secret. A room full of clutter backlog she couldn’t face. Dunt, dunt, duuunt! Does that sounds familiar? Sometimes it’s a drawer that hides receipts, […]

Watching my friends Mom jump on board the Candy Crush craze initially had me shaking my head in wonder. Why was this intelligent lady choosing to play an online game instead of being outdoors, reading a book or cooking up a storm? It was most unlike her. But as she successfully made her way up […]

It’s summer here in Australia, which means that for most us, January is prime-time to take a break. Some families go camping. Others take a flight to a spectacular destination. My little family does an annual road trip. We travel over 1,000kms (or 621 miles), each way. The trip usually involves a beach holiday vacation, […]

Do you set goals each year? Make New Year’s resolutions? I generally set goals for the year, but I’m open to things changing, priorities shifting. I’m happy to switch direction as unexpected ideas and opportunities unfold. Maybe this is denial-speak for the fact that I let myself get distracted. Regardless, I do like to start […]

This was my favorite post about New Year’s Resolutions this year. I liked it so much I thought I’d share it here! My faves are: See the world – with the magic of the internet Don’t spend too much time wearing pants Take every disappointment as a reason to give up Something, something saving money […]
This little insight can save us a buttload of pain. When we get snarky customer service, when someone is mean or nasty, when we cannot seem to please that relative or friend. We don’t have to take it personally and feel rejected. But nor should we get all het up thinking they’re an awful human […]

This season means many different things to people. For some it’s a religious event, a family occasion, even a sad or tense or difficult time. Many of us take a break from work and the usual routine, and see the new year as a fresh start. Whatever Christmas, the holidays, and the new year […]
Make This The Year You Achieve Your Goals What gets in the way of you achieving your goals? Often what stops people is: Not being clear about what their goals are Not translating their goals into specific tasks that move them closer to their goals Not taking regular steps toward goal achievement. Clarifying goals, chunking them down, and […]
