The day before yesterday, I go to pay a visit to my former neighbor, Stan. He and I would live next to each other for a few years. About several months ago, word came which the old building, as well as many other similar one, was going to be pulled down to make room for a main street. So we had to separate. Stan’s home now is in the north of the city near the beautiful lake. His house is much big than before. The only problem trouble him is that it takes quite a long time get to the downtown area. Thus, Stan isn’t concerned about the long distance. He tells us that a new subway line is being built now and he is sure of life will be better and much more convenient in the future.
8 . The philosophy that can help you keep your home organized
How can we clean up our space and keep it that way? That’s a question that Star Hansen thinks a lot about. She’s a professional organizer who teaches classes on home organizing. She believes that keeping your home neat and tidy is a continual process.
Understand your chaos
Hansen says everyone’s chaos tells a personal story. What becomes chaos and where your chaos build up can say a lot about what’s going on with you. If you have unwanted piles of stuff around your house, ask yourself: What’s making it hard to throw them away? For example, a uniform that hasn’t fit for years.
Start small
When it comes to organizing, don’t bite off more than you can chew. If you start with too big a goal, you might get discouraged if the job takes too long. So don’t try to clean your entire garage in one afternoon.
It’s easy to be organized the day after tidying. But what happens when you come home from a trip and are too tired to unpack your luggage? Or when you get the flu and are too sick to clean up? The key to staying organized is to create practices that can be easily maintained. Make a system that works for you even when you’ve got a cold. For example, label storage containers on all four sides so they’re easier to spot.
| A．Make it easy to stay organized |
| B．Abandon the fancy storage boxes |
| C．Instead, start with something less challenging |
| D．Maybe it reveals a longing for your former profession |
| E．That attitude can help you let go of things you don’t need |
| F．You have to take the time to create systems that work for you |
| G．Make sure your most used items are always the easiest to reach |
