I gradually dig myself in looking for some easy and manageable hacks.

JOT DOWN YOUR SCHEDULE!

I personally believe writing anything lends the brain, power of remembrance for a longer-term. You might inscribe it in a planner, calendar, diary or an app. You can write it anywhere, the purpose is to get it out of your head. Lot of stuff revolving in the head can direct to an unorganized behaviour.
It’s hard to stay in a track if our mind tries to mug up everything. Here, writing plays a major role in resolving this issue. Now, it’s not the end, where you inscribe your thoughts is also important. I favour a bullet journal as I can use it to consider monthly tasks, daily to-do lists, scribble down ideas such as festive lists and so on, all in the one place. But go with whatever works for you.

PLAN FURTHER!

So now as you have already started pulling out everything off your head, get organised with it and plan. Whether it’s a daily, weekly, monthly or longer, you need to plan it prior if you want to stay organised. I know, it sounds very much laborious and sluggish to work on but it will actually work like a wonder on your daily chaotic lifestyle. At least, will surely take you out of that unsettled and confusing dilemma of getting everything on one day, no time last moment situations or from that nagging feeling that you have forgotten something!

Wake up every day, take a look of your calendar what’s coming up. A birthday party, a night out, pre-scheduled appointments or whatever it is, plan for it. By breaking tasks down into monthly, weekly, daily, it should stop that overwhelming feeling of needing to do EVERYTHING in one go!
There will then be all of those unusual chores and duties that you know you need to get around to sorting, write them down and then assign them to a day/week/month task list.

SCHEDULING WORK FOR A WEEK!

Scheduling everything a week before, will surely reduce the planning and preparing part of the day. Women with busy schedules can use this hack to get more organized and chaos-free mornings.

Meal preps: Meal prepping might sound scary as it actually takes a hell lot of time for the day. But, in the long rush of the week, you feel comfortable and relaxed. Meal preps also help you with settling your diet goals and tracking your calorie intakes.

Create a weekly menu: Having a weekly menu will make it easier for you to shop because you’ll already know what you need, and cooking will become a breeze!

Have backups: One of the most helpful things I have adopted recently is keeping backups of the physical and virtual things I use often. Nowadays we live in two realms, one is physical and other is virtual. Both realms should be backed up appropriately.

Physical backup: I have a designated cabinet to store all my backups like batteries, snacks, bathroom essentials etc. This will keep you ready for every hardship, just for instance a surprise visit of your friends for a few days.

Virtual backups: Many times our phones/laptops are crashed or stolen and we end up losing all our data. Data has become the most vital part of life, which should be backed up in a regular schedule. For Phone, I prefer Google contacts to keep a proper check on my contacts and Google photos to keep my memories safe. For a laptop, it’s better to install Google drive to keep your data safe.
