You have to love the space you just organized.
Let that sink in for a moment…
It is not easy to keep areas of our home clean that we do not like. Messy closets, junk drawers, disorganized pantries. All of these spaces when constantly messy cause stress we don’t want to deal with.
But if you have taken the time to transform these spaces in organized systems that you are 100% in love with, you will have little to no problem keeping it that way.
That’s why when we cut corners with organizing, don’t get the matching bins, or don’t try labels, we still feel disconnected from the space making it harder to want to keep tidy.
