How To Be Organised

I would say I'm quite an organised person and as back to school is upon us, I thought I would share some tips on how to be organised which you can link to school or at home or wherever.

-Get a planner which you will actually check. This sounds like an obvious one but planners are so helpful and you will become organised as you now have a structure to your day. Some people prefer digital but I'm a paper girl at heart and if you think you're not going to look at your planner why not try decorating it because as it looks pretty you'll be more encouraged to look at it.

-Always have post-it notes for notes that you might forget and the good thing about them is you can chuck them away when you're finished so you're not going to have lots of random note paper.

-This one is more for tidying and it's tidy up as you go along if you're someone who hates tidying. If you're at your desk doing your homework and you take all of your Sharpies out, as soon as you have finished tidy them up and put them where they were before.

-Some people might not agree with this tip but don't be afraid to have lots of notebooks if it'll helped you be organised. It will save you from going through lots of pieces of paper to find a note or something you've worked on as you'll know what notebook to go to when you need to find something.

-Multiple planners won't hurt if it'll help you organised. I have 3 planners (one for everything, one for school that stays at home and one in school) and that helps and all of that won't fit in one planner and it won't look as neat if it's all cramped and you'll end up getting confused.

-If you're someone who makes to-do lists, make smaller, more realistic to-do lists with 3-4 things for each day as it won't stress you out as much and after you've done the 3-4 tasks you can still do more and I find I'm more productive.

-If you find you have lots of random pieces of paper get some folders- it can be one big one or multiple smaller folders for sorting your paper into categories so it's easier to find important pieces. 

They are all of my tips. Let me know in the comment below what tips you use that I haven't mentioned on how you're organised and also let me know if you're going to use these tips, I would love to know.
