Learn to be productive by being better organized

Better organization for ultimate productivity.

What do I mean by learn to be productive by being better organized?

Well, did you know that by creating a space of organization in your head, it gives you the capacity to actually do what it is you need to do in your business to reach the success you envision?

Everything that we want in our lives begins in one spot:

In our heads.

This may be a new concept for you to embrace. The good news is that you can create ultimate productivity meaning, getting what you want by doing what you need to, by organizing your mind. You’ve heard it before. It’s your mindset.

It begins by how we think of ourselves.

I just had a client call and she told me she needed to re-arrange her office for better productivity. She felt she was unorganized to the point of distraction. She actually said this: “I’m a mess.”

We uncovered that she wasn’t only unorganized in her physical space, but also in her mental space.

Ways to organize your mental space.

You may not have realized that you can organize your mental space. You can and for the record, it is the key place to begin.

Take note of your thoughts, what do they center around? More than likely you have the same thoughts very often. And more than likely you haven’t done a thing about them. That’s clutter. 

I call those types of thoughts loopy thoughts. Because they loop around in our head, they keep coming back and we never seem to be able to stop them.

One of the things I do for myself as well as teach my clients is to be very mindful about thoughts. Especially those loopy ones.

Get those loopy thoughts out of your head and organize them by writing them out on a piece of paper (or enter into a document or online organizing system). Next, create a quick plan of how they will get done. 

What having order in your brain does for you.

When you have order in your brain you are able to have a calmer mindset. You are secure in knowing that you have captured what was in your head and that you actually have a plan to accomplish what you need to.

You are now free to actually get into action of getting your tasks done. What you did was create an organized space inside your head and now you have a clear mindset.

Your brain can relax and you can get to work. Very cool, right? Next, it’s time to organize your physical space so that it supports you in being able to take those actions when you scheduled them.

Organizing your physical space for your ultimate productivity.

Back to my client who first thought she wanted to organize her external space. Once she did her exercise of emptying her brain, writing down what she had in her head and created her path to get things done, it was time to organize the outside.

She actually was very organized to begin with. What we discovered is that she needed to create a physical space that was pretty minimal because if something was out on her desk or in her office and she laid eyes on it, she felt she needed to do it…right that second!

Are you like that? Do you easily get distracted when your eyes land on things? Do you suddenly feel the need to put something away just because you see it? If so, you may benefit from organizing your space so that it supports you rather than distracts you.

I’ve talked about this very thing on Day 18 of the Productivity Actions I wrote about a while back. Success needs a set up.

A successful physical environment is set up so that everything you need to be productive is at your finger tips and/or within easy reach.

You have ample space to work, your space is organized for your needs, your electronic devices are in excellent working order, your planner/schedule is easily accessible, your papers are categorized and in places you easily access as are writing instruments and paper…continue reading more here.

Productivity is a direct reflection on organization.

You need to organize yourself inside and out in such a way that you are able to take action to get things done.

And in order to do that, being organized first will lead you to better productivity. The key steps for you to learn to be productive can be found in my blog that will teach you TOP productivity actions. 

You need to be clear on your TIME, be ORGANIZED with what you are doing, and know how to PRIORITIZE your time and tasks. Once you do, you will have learned how to be productive and it’s such a beautiful thing.

You will be checking things off your list so fast you won’t know what hit you. You will be able to set and achieve goals in ways you haven’t even imagined. 

Are you ready? I hope so. It’s time to learn to be productive with being better organized!
