For the most part I am ridiculously organized. Once in a while I put something in the wrong place and then I drive myself crazy forever trying to find it. I hate that.

I am a little bit organized, somewhat messy. I can find things this way.

I love to be organized,but i have a brother living with me in my room who keeps disorganizing the room and making a giant mess.He always eats in the room and leaves the plates which sometimes cause a stinky smell!

I am very organized at work, but I would love to be more organized at home when it comes to keeping my closet organized.  I tend to get a little unorganized there. :)

I am extremely organized, a bit on the OCD side some would say. I can find things very easily until my husband, who is the complete opposite, moves things around.

I am organized, I just feel more productive that way.  However, I usually have a junk drawer somewhere in my house.  It reminds me of Monica from Friends on that episode when they found her closet stuffed full of stuff.

I tend to find things better when I am disorganized. Although this house can really use some extra organization.

I'm so disorganized it's pathetic.  I just can't seem to quit saving every little scrap of paper.  I swear I haven't seen the top of my desk in months.  :BangHead: :BangHead:

I think I would say both. In some areas of my home like kitchen and living room im so neat. Bedroom not as neat closet cluttered and bathroom very presentable. Im somewhere in between.

Yeah I'm kinda the same way....both organized and disorganized. It depends on the situation. At work, my desk HAS to be completely organized. At home, for the most part, I'm organized. But there are times when I find myself a bit disorganized.

I am so organized that my husband use to call me at work to find out where something was.  I would tell him the exact spot for instance it in the 3rd drawer, left hand side in the middle of the drawer.  My co workers use to love the calls and would laugh at me when they would come.

I have two kids (in sports, band, and honors classes), two golden retrievers that need three walks per day, two full time jobs and a wife that works one and a half jobs (as well as playing tennis , running and working out)...I have to be organized or I would be ruined.  Half of my meals are made on Sundays and packed so that I can eat breakfast on the road.  I use a Franklin planner, microsoft outlook and my smart phone to keep track of everyone's activities.

I used to do that with my mom when I was at college.  I'd ask her to send me something and she'd be unsure she could find it.  I'd give her precise instructions as to not only what drawer it was in but where in the contents of the drawer it was.  She'd still sound unsure, but would find it right where I said it was, of course.  I could see it in my mind, I'm very visual.

If I see where someone else puts something down, without any attention being called to it, and then they can't find it I can tell them where it is because I have a snapshot of it in my head.

I was born organized and find it easy.  Though I'm cramped for space these days so  clutter interferes a bit.

I have created a spread sheet to track my various offers. I have one for daily surveys/tasks, 1 time offers, trial offers, and the daily email. I use the various spread sheets to track all the offers. I print them off so I can hand write everything and even mark if I have received credit for each one. At the end of the week I transfer all the information to a digital version on my PC so I have my own record of all I have done. I also keep track of the time spent on tasks so I can look at averages and determine what is the best way to spend my time. The most important spread sheet for me is the one that tracks trial offers because it lets me know when to I need to cancel them by to avoid being charged a membership fee. I hope to write up a blog or website of all I am learning so I can pass it on to others and also get referrals through it. :)

I am very organized.  Disorganization drives me up the wall.  I know of relatives who never heard of the word organized because it simply doesn't bother them.  I have an aunt who I refuse to do anything with because she will tell you for instance she will meet you at a certain time and shows up 5 hours later because she was busy doing something else and lost track of time.  This has been a constant all her life.

I would say I am disorganized.  But I really dont have much to be organized.  I am staying with my brother so I basicly have my cloths and thats about it.  I am hoping to move back with  my wife.  She is the organized person in our relationship.  We seperated for a while becasue she wanted to be with her family and I wanted to be with mine.  It doesn't help that we are about 35 years difference in our age. She has grandkids and I have no kids so I went back to my home town and now I am ready to go back.

I am so both.  I will just toss anything into a clean spot and then get to the point where everything is so disorganized I have to clean it because I can't take the mess.  Then after I clean up everything I regret doing that because I can't find anything....so then I make new piles until I can't take the mess and have to clean it.  It's a crazy cycle and I can't break the habit.  Nice to know I'm not the only one out there like that. ;)

My desk at work is extremely organized. I've got it all arranged in a chronological stack. The papers I have used recently is on top and the stuff I haven't touched in a while is on the bottom. This strategy saves me time from having to look around for something in, say, alphabetical order. (I'm hoping my boss buys that excuse...  ;D )

Post by: samiole32 on September 23, 2011, 06:44:53 am
I am not organized at all and when I try to organize something I do it but I hardly keep it
what I do to force myself is I put everything in one place so whenever I need something I go to this place and find it and when I feel I have to organize them its all in one place so its easy to classify them and organize them. but again hard to keep it specially with too much papers this is the most horrible part
