Self-Discovery is Important!
As you go through your belongings, you are going through your life. Think about it, you are seeing what clothes still fit into your life as well as with your body. What decor still fit into your lifestyle and what part of your past you want to keep. When you are organizing, you are aiming to have a less cluttered life and an easier living atmosphere. With that you are going to need to know who you are now and if your home and life represent that.
If certain belongings don’t fit into your lifestyle, we tend to push it to the bottom. It tends to collect dust or we simply forget about it. It is so essential to know what you want to display about yourself. Your aim should be surrounding yourself with everything you love in a more organized way.

Re-evaluate Yourself
We all change throughout the years. We aren’t the same as when we were in kindergarten, we sure aren’t the same as when we were in high school or maybe even last year or 6 months ago. Life changes so it can mean reorganizing our life differently. We declutter our friends and social media to reflect the stage we are in our life now. This is a part of re-evaluating yourself and your life.
Organizing means making your home and life easier and less stressful. It is a way of life and it takes you creating goals and then accomplishing them. Therefore knowing yourself and preparing yourself ahead of time not only helps you but, gives you an extra foundation in your life to actually maintain your goals. Your goals of being more organized will be customized to you and your lifestyle and not someone’s else.
Self-Discovery Questions
To re-evaluate yourself, you are going to take a moment to think about you and your life. Taking a minute to yourself to think about you for once in your life. Ask yourself some questions like: What do you want in life? What are your goals?  Think about what is important to you? Are there things you want to do more of?Â
You would be surprised how much the answers can affect how we organize our life. If we have more free time we can have more time to go after our goals and get to where were want to be. If we organize and create a budget, we can save up for our dream home, dream car or dream vacation. So, we need to know ourselves to get ourselves to where we want to be. We all have things we want to get done but there is a reason why we don’t always get there and one of the reasons is time.
