This chart will show you how to organize your whole life
Let’s face it—everyone wants to be more organized, but the time and energy it takes sometimes don’t seem worth it. If you do put in some effort, though, being organized will actually save you time and energy in the long run.
According to a study in “Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin,” women who said their homes were “cluttered” were more depressed and fatigued, and had higher levels of the stress hormone cortisol than women who said their homes were “restful.” And when it comes to your bedroom in particular, keeping it clean and organized may help you sleep better, according to a survey by the National Sleep Foundation.
