Make the bed every day<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1249\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Made-Bed.jpg\" alt=\"Well made bed\" \/>\n\nThis probably sounds like the simplest trick in the world, but not many people find time to do this in their busy, rushed morning!\n\nTaking five minutes after you wake up to smooth out your sheets and comforter, and arrange your pillows will do wonders for the living space around the bed. It can truly pull a room together, and is worth those extra moments in the morning. Not to mention, it\u2019s a wonderful feeling to come home after a long day to a made bed and an organized space.\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_File_papers_immediately\"><\/span>2. File papers immediately<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1250\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Paperwork.jpg\" alt=\"unorganized paperwork\" \/>\n\nThe old saying is true\u2014old habits die hard! Allowing paperwork to accumulate is one long-term habit that is tough to break. When your client receives mail, or is does paperwork at home, encourage them to file the paper away once they move on to a new task. Filing cabinets and folders are great for this.\n\nPaper can accumulate extremely quickly and turn into a mess, so getting into the habit of filing it away immediately is key. On that note, set a specific place in the home for mail and coupons to live, rather than just being thrown in a pile.\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Clear_away_the_dishes\"><\/span>3. Clear away the dishes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nOnce a meal is finished, get those dishes in the dishwasher right away\u2014or wash them in the sink. Letting dirty dishes pile up is a lazy habit, but it can be corrected easily. Plus, it\u2019ll have your future self thanking you for cleaning up right away!\n\nAs a professional organizer, trying to encourage your client to make this lifestyle change can be difficult, so we&#8217;ve compiled some strategies for how to deal with <a href=\"2016\/03\/tough-organizing-clients-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">difficult clients<\/a>.\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Beware_of_wires\"><\/span>4. Beware of wires<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1251\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Cables.jpg\" alt=\"tangle electronics wires\" \/>\n\nComputers, televisions, cell phone chargers\u2014every home is filled with them! Wires can get out of control quickly, as they pile up, tie themselves up in knots, and look terribly disorganized. The good news is that they are one of the easiest items to organize! Try one of these two strategies:\n<h3>Binder clips:<\/h3>\nBelieve it or not, binder clips do an excellent job of keeping those wires separated!\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1252\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Binder-Clips.jpg\" alt=\"Colorful binder clips\" \/>\n\nHook as many clips as you need on the very edge of a desk or work space, and place the wires through them. If you need to unplug a USB cord, for example, it won&#8217;t fall down and become part of a big wiry mess, but rather will maintain its position on the edge of the desk for when you need to plug it in again. Mix up the clip colors for a bit of fun!\n<h3>Cute storage boxes:<\/h3>\nChances are, if your client has a television, they likely have a few other electronics around it such as a DVD player or sound system. So many wires! Plug them all into a powerful space saving bar. Then, find a cloth storage box in a complementary color to the living room and place the power bar inside the box, with all the wires. Now you&#8217;re left with an attractive storage item and zero wires to worry about!\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Think_outside_the_storage_box\"><\/span>5. Think outside the storage box<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\nBeing organized doesn&#8217;t mean you have to sort everything into cardboard boxes! This is an opportunity to get creative, and also employ the use of unique storage and organizational solutions around the home.\n<h3>The kitchen<\/h3>\nA client&#8217;s kitchen is a space that can get out of control quickly in terms of clutter, especially inside the cupboards! Instead of simply placing kitchen items such as graters, can openers and electric mixers inside a cupboard, first place them inside plastic tubs (they can be any color the client chooses!). This limits the amount of digging around the client has to do while looking for an item, and keeps small items from getting lost in the shuffle.\n<h3>The foyer closet<\/h3>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1253\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/Closet.jpg\" alt=\"Disorganized closet\" \/>\n\nIf your client has a family, this area becomes a virtual tornado of activity\u2014and a messy catch-all! One helpful rule that your client can use with their family is a \u201cone-week rule\u201d for the foyer closet. The rule states that if the item placed in the closet is not going to be used during that particular week, it cannot stay in that closet. This keeps the space reserved solely for immediate items such as shoes and jackets, and puts all other items in their proper place.\n<h3 align=\"center\"><i>\nYour clients will love these simple organizing tricks, since they&#8217;re so easy to integrate into their lives!
