Organizing for Your Lifestyle: Adaptable Inspirations from Socks to Suitcases

Organizing is a lifestyle, but it isn't one-size-fits-all. Incorporating organizing into your life shouldn't, ultimately, involve changing who you are, but rather maximizing it. Knowing where your favourite socks are, and having them stored correctly, means you'll be able to wear your favourite socks more often, and look better doing it. Similarly, packing properly for a once-in-a-lifetime trip means you'll be able to enjoy that trip even more. Remember: being organized doesn't mean thinking about organizing all the time. Ideally, being organized means that you don't have to think about organizing all the time--because you do it automatically, as an organic part of your everyday routine. And you can only reach this level of organizing bliss by making sure your organizing systems and routines are perfectly adapted to your goals, personality, and needs. Again: organizing is a lifestyle, but it needs to be your lifestyle. This is the mantra of the book, even though reference's to certain things that everyone should always do, such as labelling, folding, and ironing (to name a few) are included. Emphasis is placed on the basics and then adapting them your own lifestyle and goals.
