How come some people are so organized?

[fredaarhin]

I've been wondering how some people are so organized. Is it that they spend most of their time rearranging everything they've scattered or they scatter nothing at all?

[Alessa13]

I am organized and I simply clean or organize as I go. This way there is never a huge mess to clean up.

I know messy people that make a huge mess then have to clean it up when done, or leave it. I hate cleaning up huge messes which is why I stay organized along the way.

If I don't keep things organized, I also lose things and I am terrible at searching, once I've lost something it is gone forever in my mind and if I happen to find it again, that is amazing.

I’m one of those people and the reason is because if everything’s not organised I will lose my shit lol. It will stress me out.


I organise my stuff fully very frequently but I’m also generally a tidy person. When I’m done with using something, I always put it back.

That's great

We all are born and nurtured to have different personalities. People who tend to be more creative also tend to be less organized overall. Some of it comes with discipline as people learn habits to stay organized and prefer to feel in control. Other factors include having time to clean up as well as taking pride in owning things and keeping them clean.

Okay

You have to have a system. Organized people have a system. You don’t make a big mess and scatter everything around because, well, that’s self-defeating. Everything has its place.

I literally never lose anything. Anything. And whenever something IS missing is really bothers me, like just a pen. I pretty much always find it though like 99% of the time.

I start one task and do until it's done. Less organized people start 10 things then never end 9 of them. Cleaning up takes often more time than the main task, this time has to be calculated before I start doing something.

I believe it puts their mind to ease when things are organized. Like, it stresses them out to see things unorganized. It’s like an itch that needs to be scratched. I’m like this to a certain extent, where organization gives me peace of mind.

Agreed

[fredaarhin]

Yeah

[melanieeeB]

I don't save up clutter to start with...
Also I have been an organized and clean person since ever, even as a kid I would always make sure that my dolls are in their place and my toys are tidied up etc

Some people has a gift at keeping things clean and organized, but I’m unlucky because I got the procrastinate gene.

[fredaarhin]

lol, u aren't the only one

[midnightmoon05]

I don’t like most materialistic stuff. So less to store or clean. I have a few basic things I need. Nothing else are worth keeping or buying.

Well personally I have an executive function issue so I have no clue. I literally can’t wrap my head around the idea of people keeping things tidy and easily accessible all the time. 😅

Studies have proven that smarter people tend to be desorganised so dont worry.

[Pinay_ako]

I clean up as I go. I can’t stand mess or disarray.

[RockyHammock]

I think some people get bothered by things they see as out of place. Whereas other people don't even consider placement.

[serious]

They are self motivated to be organized.
