HOW TO BE ORGANISED IN FIVE SIMPLE WAYS

I am not the most organised person and I have never felt the need to be until recently. It all started with a late night and an early morning.Woke up half sleepy with a zombie face, feeling like I had been smashed by a car. I had a lecture to attend  and being late was not an option. To make everything worse nothing was in order.  I decided to sit down and write my organised daily routine : 

       SET UP AN ALARM

If you are a heavy sleeper or you had a late night make use of the alarm to wake you up just in time. It is normal to be caught up in a movie, work or on social networks and lose track of time. These things might happen even if we had planned an early night. To be on the safe side you can set up an alarm to help you get it together in the morning. 

    PLAN YOUR OUTFIT THE NIGHT BEFORE

I am a very  choosy person  when it comes to what I wear. I'm not worried about my looks but I know my outfit gives an impression about me before I open my mouth. So why not let the clothes do the talking. Having a bad day and a bad outfit really sucks . If you are choosy like me then you definitely need more time choosing an outfit and doing it whilst you are behind time is such a bad idea. I bet you will have a goodnight sleep knowing you have one less problem for the day ahead. 

      WAKE UP AN HOUR EARLIER

There's always this  thing that happens when you are  behind time, nothing seems to go right. It's like the whole universe  is  against you and it's so overwhelming. When  you are running  late important details tend to be forgotten  and  the  whole  day  might end up being  ruined leaving you in a bad mood. Trust me on this one I'm talking from experience. So to reduce pressure on yourself wake up an hour earlier, you will have more time to prepare yourself.  

     MAKE PLANS FOR THE NEXT DAY

Make sure everything you need for the next day is neatly packed before you sleep. Be it files, essentials or anything you need during your busy day. Pay attention to details!  A small thing such as a missing receipt can mess up your whole day and that is not good. Note books can be very handy in this process, you can write a list of everything you need for the next day and  cancel each completed task. With every little thing in place before you go to bed you are assured of less worries the day ahead.    

  MANAGE TIME WISELY
     

Time management is very important. Most successful people value their time. In the book 200 secrets of success, Robin Sharma says," every day, take the time to ask yourself the question, is this the best use of my time and energy?" We should question ourselves all the time in order to measure how productive we are during the day. If not most of our time will go to waste on minor things that are not productive.
