Are you finding it more difficult to plan out your days, weeks, and months? I know for me, being a wife, who works, does content, and has to clean and cook is overwhelming at times. If I personally don’t take some time out of the beginning of my week to plan out my days, then I feel like I am running all over the place with no agenda. It isn’t fun for me or my husband. Let’s be honest, we all do better and feel better when we are more organized! In this post, I am going to give you 5 ways to get more organized! I am also going to be featuring my new planner that I just actually bought from another CC Wife!
Make a Checklist!
This is a big one! Writing a checklist helps keep me focused on the next task! I usually try to go in order on my checklist. One of the best feelings is checking a box. I always check a box when a task is completed! It helps me so much and gives me the next push to complete the next task! I always smile so big when I check off something like, “do the dishes.” I know it is completed and it just feels good to mark through it or check it off!
2. Be Consistent!
Writing in your planner every day is a big one! While it may be hard, you have to be consistent. That is true for anything in life that you do! Another way to make it fun, is to get some really cute pens, stickers, and sticky notes! Make it fit YOU!
3. Do the Big tasks first, then the smaller ones!
For me, getting the bigger tasks done first is a huge weight lifted off of my shoulders. Doing the bigger tasks first helps motivate me to get the smaller ones done too!
4. Choosing the Chores
While we can try to do our best, reality is…we are human and things can be overwhelming. Keeping a clean home is probably one of the top questions I see asked in the CCW community. To keep a clean home, setting a small task like washing dishes or vacuuming can help keep a decent home, then add on one bigger chore to that. At the end of the week, you should have a clean home! If that does not work, you can also save the bigger chores for a certain day! While we are called to be good stewards of what we have been given, please remember nobody's perfect! The perfect homes you see online are not reality for most people!

5. Spending time with JESUS
This is a big one, and I saved the best for last! Starting your day with Jesus can be so beneficial. It helps get you in the right mindset for the day. If I don’t read my Bible in the morning, I feel so disorganized all throughout my day and it is difficult for me to focus on anything. It is now a part of my everyday routine.
