Recently, I’ve been talking about how learning to get organized is based in meeting different levels of needs and by being exposed to different teaching techniques. This week on the podcast, I want to move from theory to practice. I want to talk to you about some specific ways to fit organizational behaviors into your schedule. I want to move you beyond a certain way to fold shirts and, instead, help you to change your behavioral habits. These habits make up 80% of our actions everyday, and we must PLAN and WORK to create change.

Big change over time comes from changing little habits on a regular basis. When I teach, I think hearing about real people in real situations is super helpful in applying information. So, I answer your question about irregular, unpredictable schedules. I also answer a listener question about being in the accumulation and survival stages at the same time (and I talk about both time and your space for this question). A third question addresses being organized when working two jobs and going to school.

I will also send you back to some of my prior podcasts where I explore these changes in detail and give you much more information. Here are some other podcasts I have recorded that also help answer these questions and you can apply to working towards changing your habits and behaviors:

• I write out my schedule each week when I do my Sunday Basket®. You can find a weekly schedule printable here so you can try the same technique. 
• Podcast 197 - You Need a Schedule
• Podcast 254 - Find More Planning Time
• Podcast 227 - Having an Adult Spring Break
• Podcast 192 - Morning Routines for the Modern Day Woman
• Podcast 193 - Creating Afternoon & Evening Routines
• Podcast 128 - How to Hire Household Help

I hope this helps kick off some new habits for you! I would love to hear from you on Instagram or on Facebook.
