How do you stay organized?

We can't always be on the computer- real life has a way of dragging you away, after all. That's why this forum is here- to talk all about it.

How do you stay organized?

Post by Juneberry »

For that matter, do you stay organized? I'm a total clutterbug myself- my insanity has a sort of system, but over time, the system leaves my memory and leaves me utterly confused. What about you guys? Are you clutterbugs like me, or do you actually keep things organized and well put together? Any tips for a lazy person like me to work on being less scattered?

tools yes, workspace no.

I have a drawer, it has a thing that holds all the screws and another thing that holds floppy discs, and in one of the drawers at my desk is rocket motor parts...
my tools are on the wall wherever they'll fit.
I tried to organize things but the most I got was organizing my consoles by manufacturer.

mostly though... I just need more space to properly organize everything.

as for the computer... I do basic stuff.
folder for games.
folder for pictures
Folder for video projects and editing stuff.
it's on the D Drive to keep the OS drives light which is in a raid 1 mirrored configuration in case my storage drive dies on me... again.

my main problem is that I see "junk" and I think "Free parts" and I end up disassembling it and not knowing what to do with the leftover bits that I couldn't recycle into various projects.

since tinkering and inventing is a kind of art... I'll probably make a thread about it in the near future lol.

I look forward to it, and it's definitely an art! I wonder where that art should go... *thinks* If you have any ideas, let me know kay?

I don't. I've accepted the fact that I am never going to be organized. I just don't have the skills to organize.

I started a bullet journal yesterday in hopes of organizing my mind, but my decluttering will probably take my entire life before I'm done.

I am very organised. There is a place for everything. If I walk in a shop and boxes are everywhere and a mess I have to walk out.
