You Say Tomato, I Say Pomodoro
Productivity can be an elusive thing. Especially if you are working from home, just about anything can serve as a distraction robbing you of precious time and putting a pin in your productivity. The laundry is calling your name. The dog is scratching at the door. A child asks for help with an assignment. The list of distractions is long, and time is short.
Organizing for Back to School, Home and Hybrid
The sentiments ring out again and again. Going back to school this year is like no other. Whether your child returns to the brick and mortar, participates in remote learning or a combination of both, you can create organizing systems to support a successful school year.
Home Sweet Home Office
If you found yourself suddenly working from home, perhaps you jumped right into the work without thinking much about organizing your workspace. An organized work area, however, is a key ingredient to increased efficiency and productivity.
Open for Business
As Massachusetts businesses begin to open and resume operations, though for some in a limited capacity, Sort It Out Boston is happy to let you know, Yes, We’re Open! We missed you! As the service we provide in move management and home organizing is very much hands-on, we will continue to apply the safety precautions we have been practicing and add even more, keeping the health, safety and wellbeing of everyone involved as our priorities.
Until We Meet Again
cross the country, and in our home state of Massachusetts, the veil is beginning to lift from the grip of the COVID-19 pandemic. Sort It Out Boston joins the many businesses, locally and nationally, eager to flip the sign from ‘Closed for Business, to ‘Yes, we’re Open!’. Before that happens, we want you to know that we are thinking of you, miss working with you, and hope that you and your loved ones are safe.
Donating During the COVID-19 Pandemic
In this unprecedented and historic time, rules, regulations and policies are changing by the minute. Life is anything but business as usual. Still, there remains a pressing need to help society's most vulnerable. That's where donation outlets and charities have routinely stepped in, thanks to the generosity of those who can donate.
Declutter and Organize Your Shelter
In the blink of an eye, the world has changed. That can be true for us individually when incidents, accidents and circumstances happen in our lives and those of family members that are simply out of our control. What we are experiencing now, Coronavirus, has gripped us all tightly and bound us together like nothing we have ever seen.
Works for Me
You’re probably familiar with the phrase ‘one size does not fit all’. That is certainly true of organizing. An organizing strategy may work wonders for one person, while the same strategy may have no impact on another. We all have our unique personalities, styles and traits that make each of us the individuals that we are. We also have our own characteristic habits and behaviors that are natural to our daily activities.
His and Hers
He’s a saver, you donate a boxful of goods every week. Your socks are folded and filed standing at attention when you open the drawer. His socks are a jumble of cloth, partners long ago separated, never to be reunited again. Alas, you love him.
Organizing with 2020 Vision
The first month of the New Year of the new decade is rapidly coming to a close. January is GO (Get Organized) Month. It’s a time to put good intentions to work and commit to making that popular resolution a reality. Did you make a New Year resolution? How is it going so far?
