If you feel like you’re always disorganized at home, can never find what you need, and never seem to know where things are or are supposed to be, this might be more of an issue with your own organization than an issue with your memory.

Luckily, if it is merely the fact that you have a hard time keeping things organized for yourself at home, there are things that you can do to get to know your surroundings better and set yourself up for success in this area.

To help you see how this can be done, here are three ways to keep yourself better organized at home.

Learn What You Have And Where It Is

One of the first things that you should do if you want to have a better handle on how to get organized and stay organized at home is to learn what you have and where it is.

Especially if you’re not the one who does a lot of the cleaning, supply checks, or organizing within your home, you might feel like you never know where anything is or what you even have on-hand simply because you’re not the one dealing with this stuff on a regular basis.

So to fix this problem, you’ve got to take a more active role in learning what you have around the house and where it goes. And if you notice something that doesn’t make organizational sense to you, bring it up with the other people you live with and see if you can come up with a compromise that everyone can agree to.

Keep Your Everyday Items In The Same Place

For many people, there are a few things that they always seem to have a hard time finding when they need them. These things usually include everyday items like keys, wallet, phone, and shoes.

To eliminate the time you spend stressing about where these things are all the time, create a launchpad space for you and everyone else in your home where you’re to store all of these items.

Keep this area close to your door so that, as soon as you come into the house, you can drop all of this stuff off and know exactly where it will be the next time you need it.

Embrace Spot Cleaning

When things pile up around the house, setting aside the time to clean and organize everything can be overwhelming.

To eliminate this, try to embrace the principle of spot cleaning. When you spot clean, if you ever notice a few things that are out of place or need dealing with, you should deal with the immediately rather than letting them get out of control. The better you’re able to be at spot cleaning, the more organized your home will become.

If you’re able to take control of the organization of your home, consider using the tips mentioned above to help you get started.
