Three Tips For Staying Organised

If I wasn't an organised person I think my head would probably explode with how easily overwhelmed it gets. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people that can't do anything until I've thought it through a hundred times and made a list to go with it. When I first started blogging I didn't really have a system but at that time it was just a hobby, I'm now freelance so it's extremely important that I stay on top of things. I know a lot of people procrastinate and struggle to stay organised when blogging so today I thought I would share a few of my top tips to help keep you on track and away from Netflix! 

Complete The Hardest Tasks First
For me, photography is the hardest thing about blogging. I'm not very naturally creative and although I try to be fancy with my photos, most of the time I like to stick to the basics. So to stop myself from getting stressed, I like to take my photos before I actually write the post. That way the hard part is over and I can focus on the easier task that I actually enjoy. 

Get Into To Writing Lists
This is such a boring tip but if you have a hundred and one things going on in your head, it's very hard to know where to begin so as long as I have my notes written down in my blog planner or even my phone, I can think clearly and not worry that I've missed something important. 

Declutter Your Workspace
I've realised recently just how much clutter impacts my ability to focus and complete tasks. My desk is super bare right now but I actually prefer it that way. A lot of the times when I've had writer's block I've noticed that I start to play with things on my desk but this way the temptation isn't there and I can just focus on writing. It really makes a difference!
