Welcome to the Organized 365 Podcast. My name is Lisa Woodruff and I'm a professional

organizer and blogger in Cincinnati, Ohio. I want to help you get your home

organized and help you organize life stages and

unexpected events. So sit back, relax, and let's get organized.

In today's podcast, I'm going to give those of you that struggle with ADHD or who have resonated

with the things I talked about in those ADHD podcasts, which I think is probably everyone I know I resonated with some of the stuff and I'm definitely not

diagnosed with the ADHD but it's the executive functioning part of our brain which we all have

so everyone's going to relate to different things

that I said but today I want to give you five tips or five steps to keeping your

house more organized because one of the things I'm starting to hear now from people who are going

through the 40 weeks one whole house challenge or who are getting through organizing their

house is they get through some rooms and they're into other rooms and they realize the rooms that they finished are now getting cluttering again.

Or, you know, we just want it to be done once and be done and it's not.

And so how much do you maintain and how do you maintain an organized house and

that'll be a whole separate podcast later, but that does come into play today.

So today I'm going to talk generally about organizing your house,

just some big general overview things

that don't really fit in any other like podcast

or post categories. So these are just some tips and tricks so the first

thing and I hear this from other organizers and I agree with it to an extent which is to try to live a more simple life and just get rid of a lot of stuff.

And while I totally understand that it's much easier to maintain a house that has less stuff,

the problem is there's always going to be one or two areas where it's super, super hard for you to get rid of stuff.
