This is the third of a 3 part series on overcoming overwhelm at home. Last week I reviewed how prioritizing the way we’re taught actually makes us feel more overwhelmed and how you can prioritize instead so that you get stuff done.

Today’s microscopic home organizing topic is creating a dependable system that will capture all the thoughts, ideas and to-do’s that cross your mind.

The whole concept of a capture system is what I had been looking for seemingly forever, but until I found it I didn’t know it’s what I needed or that I was even looking for it. Are you like… what was that?! With a capture system I don’t stress or get overwhelmed as often.

As someone who is or feels like they’re just starting their home organizing journey you want to be set up for lasting home organizing solutions, right? In order to make that happen you’ll have to do something different than you’ve done before or what society tells us.

Instead of allowing overwhelm to rule your life and make you feel anxious and frustrated, you can create a capture system so that you have something you can depend on to capture all your thoughts, ideas and to-do’s. In this episode I’ll share the components of a capture system, the only tool I use within my capture system and how you can implement the same thing or something similar.

If you want to bounce ideas off of someone to help you develop your own capture system, one that YOU can depend on. I’m happy to help.
