Just DO it!

Posted on by · 1 Comment

I love Nike’s branding line, “Just do it.”

 

There are advantages to creating an organizing routine in your schedule, or waiting for a free afternoon to tackle a project. But if something in your space becomes annoying, and it will take 10 minutes or less to resolve it – just do it.

 

I once opened a towel closet and towels came falling over my head. I was already planning to redo the closet, and could have just stuffed the towels back in until I was ready to start the project but they’d have fallen out again on the next person who opened the door.

 

I didn’t have time to fix the whole closet right at that moment. But I didn’t need to. In just under 10 minutes, there were no more falling down towels.

Three shelves with towels in total array and at risk to fall out once the door opens.
Before Towel Closet
An organized towel closet consisted of top two shelves of rolled up towels. The 3rd shelf or bottom is for storing hand towels that's folded.

If an issue can be resolved quickly, fix it as soon as it annoys you.
