It’s the start of the New Year and that means setting goals for the year ahead! Getting organized is at the top of many people’s to-do list for 2020, but finding the motivation to just get started can be difficult. Where does one start? How does one start? There are so many aspects involved with getting organized - from your home to your work to your family, organization affects every part of your life. To help you get started, we’ve outline a few resources you can use to help you get organized:

Peter Walsh’s #31Days2GetOrganized Challenge

It’s not too late to follow along with the famous organizer’s 31-day challenge, which focuses on organizing and decluttering a different space in your life each day during the month of January. This challenge has been going on for a couple of years now, and all of his daily videos can be accessed from his YouTube page here. The simple videos are easy to follow along with and can help you get started by focusing on only one task or one room at a time. This way, organizing doesn’t seem so overwhelming, and you can work on tackling each space throughout the month and beyond.
