Organize to Get Focused

Does clutter get in your way when trying to focus?

Getting organized can go along way to help you focus.  I know though that if you have ADHD, it can be somewhat overwhelming to get organized.  To help improve your focus and keep the overwhelm away, try starting small.  Is there one area of your desk, kitchen counter, table or other work area that you can start organizing?  Try working on one small area to start and work to organize it for a short time.  If 15 minutes sounds reasonable, set a timer and get organizing.  If that sounds too long, start with 10 minutes – or even 5!

Where do you need to organize?
