1. A place for everything, and everything in its place. This simple saying is the foundation of organization. When everything has a designated spot, it is much easier to find what you need when you need it. 2. Declutter regularly. Get rid of anything that you don't use, need, or love. This will free up space and make it easier to stay organized.

Here are ten lessons from Organize Your Business: Organize Your Life by Rachael Doyle.

7. Prioritize your work. Not all tasks are created equal. Prioritize your work so that you are focusing on the most important things first. 8. Eliminate distractions. This means turning off your phone, closing unnecessary tabs on your computer, and finding a quiet place to work..

5. Take breaks. It is important to take breaks throughout the day, even if it is just for a few minutes. This will help you to stay focused and productive. 6. Set realistic goals. Don't try to do too much at once. Set realistic goals for yourself and break them down into smaller, more manageable tasks.

Don't be afraid to ask for help. If you are struggling to stay organized, there are plenty of resources available to help you. Don't be afraid to ask for help from a friend, family member, or professional organizer.
I hope these lessons help you to organize your business and your life!
