GET ORGANISED AND BEYOND

As a professional organiser, I go into many homes to help individuals and families get organised. 80% of them face clutter issues. The amount of clutter varies substantially from one home to the other, but at the end of the day, they all own many things that don’t serve any purpose in their lives and that don’t even make them feel good or happy.

Who would have thought that behind the closed doors of Singapore’s residences, clutter would be an issue? But everyone loves something, and sometimes we love things too much. Then there are those of us who are the exact opposite; we don't love our spaces enough to keep them organised until we’re buried in overwhelm and are too shy to ask for help.

Is the clutter around you taking a toll on your sanity? Is the thought of tackling the clutter even more overwhelming? Don’t fret and follow my step-by-step guide to help you regain control of your space … and sanity! I use this approach with my clients to help them organise their home or office, and I have full confidence that it can work for you, too.

In this technology age, especially since the adoption of smartphones, a lot of people feel ashamed of using a paper planner and try to convince themselves to use a digital one. I was actually once told by a business partner that my paper planner was damaging my professional image! Well maybe if looking professional means being equipped with the latest electronic gadget.
