Get it out – put it back!
When people ask how did you become a personal organizer, I say, I started with myself. I’m naturally organized but not methodical. So even though there were places for most things, I didn’t put them back after I used them. My best advice is don’t put anything down until you’re ready to put it back where it belongs. When you open a canned good, put the can opener back in the drawer not on the counter. When you finish wrapping that present, put the tape, paper and ribbon back were they belong, preferably all in the same area.
Get it out – put it back!
