Getting Your Family on Board with Organisation: Building a Team Mindset

Start with the Why

Help your family understand the benefits of organisation:

• More time for fun activities

• Less stress when finding items

• Easier cleaning and maintenance

• More peaceful living environment

• Better focus and productivity

You could share specific examples of how organisation has improved your own life or could benefit theirs directly.

Create Systems That Work for Everyone

Involve family members in designing organisation systems. What works for you might not work for them. Consider:

• Individual working styles and preferences

• Daily routines and schedules

• Physical abilities and limitations

• Personal motivations and priorities

When family members help create the systems, they're more likely to maintain them.

Make It Easy to Maintain

Remove barriers to staying organised by:

• Placing frequently used items where they're needed

• Creating clear homes for everything

• Using simple, intuitive systems

• Making storage accessible and visible

• Providing tools needed for organisation (bins, labels, etc.)

Celebrate Success and Progress

Acknowledge and reward organisation efforts:

• Take before and after photos

• Plan special activities when goals are met

• Share positive feedback regularly

• Create visible progress tracking systems

Remember that small wins lead to lasting changes.
