When someone asks me to name my greatest strength, the first thing that always comes to mind is that I'm crazyorganized. I don't know how I grew to become as organized as I am, but I'm thankful for it. Although some of my organizational tendencies may seem weird to some people, to other people that are just as organized as I am, it's all too relatable. Here's what it's like to make organization your first priority:
1. I use a planner, I love my planner and I'm lost without my planner.
Don't even try to ask me what I'm doing for the rest of the day. If I don't have my planner in front of me, I won't be able to tell you.
2. Color-coding is a lifesaver.
Even my closet is color-coded. It's not weird, it just makes getting dressed in the morning super easy.
3. All of my stuff has a place where it belongs.
If my stuff is out of place, I can't get anything else done until it's where it belongs.
4. I go insane when someone moves my stuff.
How am I supposed to find my stuff if you moved it out of its place?!
5. To-do lists are the only way I get things done.
6. Crossing something off of my to-do list is euphoric.
There is truly no better feeling than getting something done.
7. Bed Bath & Beyond is my own personal heaven.
It's a store full of stuff to help you be more organized. What's better than that?
8. Every part of my life is organized.
Yes, even my phone.
9. Other people's disorganization drives me crazy.
I'll still love you if you're disorganized, but there's a little part of me that wants to rearrange all of your stuff because I don't understand how anyone can live like that.
10. I've been called a "neat freak."
And I'm like, "Well, what are you? A mess freak?!" (That'll show 'em, right?)
11. Being organized is great.
Being organized has helped me in more ways than just being able to find that pair of shoes I bought two years ago and never wore or that paper I wrote in eighth grade about President Obama.
I definitely wouldn't give up being this organized, because if I did, how would I get anything done?
The answer to that question?I wouldn't.
