Moving or cleaning can be super stressful. No matter what age you are it is good to know how to be organized to help life be less stressful. Here are 5 tips everyone should know on how to make your life less stressful.

Keep a planner.

This is a big one for me, I am that person who can be kind of forgetful and late to things. Keeping a planner helps a lot, you can have a physical planner you can write in or you can just put things on your phone. It helps you keep things on track and keeps you organized so you know when and where things are happening or when stuff is due.

Label things.

I used to think there was no reason to label things but boy was I wrong. When you keep like things together in a container or draw it helps to have a label to know what you are putting where when it comes down to trying to find something.

Organize things by item or color.

This is a big thing with clothes, especially in your closet. For me, I organize everything in my closet by the type of item: dress, business/dress clothes, tub tops, tank tops, short sleeves, long sleeves, then jackets, and sweatshirts. This helps to make things easy when it comes to switching out clothes each season and also knowing where everything in my closet is.

Use storage bins.

I CANNOT preach enough how much of space saver storage bins are. Especially when it comes to having a lot of clothes but not enough drawer space, consider under the bed rolly containers. They are great to put each season's clothes away or to just keep extra sweatshirts or blankets hidden and out of the way. Also using things like the 3 or 5 drawers Sterilite containers is always helpful for organizing the area under your desk or bed or sink.

Get rid of stuff that is taking up space.

One space saver and way to organize things is to just get rid of things. If you haven't touched an item of clothes or accessory or device in over a year it is time to say GOODBYE to it. You don't need things to take up space that can be used for other things.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
