Organized Chaos and calm morning with an exit strategy House
You are late (again) and in a panic, you try to make your children and yourself out the door after school and work. All driven around the wild and find what they need to leave the house with … backpack, telephone, address book, hat, gym …
Sound familiar? E 'was the scene in our house for a few years ago. What we need in our house, and now as a Professional Organizer, I find that most of the needs of my clients', and is an "exit strategy" and a"drop zone." It 'an area where housing elements must leave the house with you, and any products' go' when you get home.
The elements that constantly homes in this area should be:
o A checklist for leaving the house
list or errands to run
or keys, cell phone and PDA
Or Purse
O Backpack
or lunch
or coats, boots, hats, gloves, etc.
Or Briefcase, laptop
returned merchandise or drop-off charity, the post office worksArticles
O Umbrella
dog leash
Sports equipment or instruments / music
towels or wiping dirty feet and legs
Trash or for dropping junk mail if you're at home
To determine your exit strategy, and the area of impact, make a list of all the items that regularly brought into the house and all items that are usually required to leave the house with you every day.
Subsequently, the best place (house) for those items determined to live nearports that your family normally enter and leave the house. For many customers at home, I organized baskets for mobile phones, PDAs, keys. Moreover, as the hooks home for backpacks, umbrellas, wash the dog, the keys. What has become popular in many homes is a mobile system, where every family has its own "cubicle" or "lock" to keep their property if necessary.
Where space and budget allows, sometimes placed in a cabinet contractor for the construction of a cabinet / cubicle system for mecustomers. A useful tool for storing hats, gloves, scarves for all the family members to add a vertical door shoe holder (typically used for shoes). In this way, objects can easily carry bags clearly seen. With all the electronics that take place every day, it is also important to have a home online and electronics of recharge, such as mobile phones and PDAs. Now there are docking stations are available that allow you to have all the equipment at a station for free.
Afteridentified and strategized what should be outgoing mail / drop zone and where the best house for these items, it is important that the new system to communicate with all members of the family. When everyone knows that a plan is and where the house is their property, which will be most likely that the system of honor. When there is no consistent house effects, litter resulting therefrom. Make a checklist before you leave home and keep it near the door when you leave the house. It isdaily checklists and reminders so you do not have to rely on memory when you are rushed.
The key to the creation and maintenance of these areas is knowing what to save, open spaces, to establish homes for the lines of coherence and tell the system to all members of the family. Soon, the stress and chaos in the morning and leave in the afternoon will go down from a record.
