A few weeks into the school year, the back to school system you set up may already be coming apart. Backpacks are landing on the floor again and mornings feel rushed. We end up rushing from one activity to the next, unsure why it feels like we never have enough time to get to each of them.

When this happens, a lot of people blame themselves. But most of the time the organization system is either missing completely or it's not working for the family. And a system can be rebuilt.

In this month's newsletter, I walk you through how to set up a launch pad. It is one spot near your door where everything you need for the morning has a home, so each morning runs more smoothly. It's the secret to keeping families organized all through the school year when things start to feel overwhelming.

The last few months are always the hardest, especially for homeowners across Halifax.

Getting ahead of the clutter has a measurable effect on how your home feels to live in day to day. Here is how I manage it with my clients:

Start small.
Pick one area you interact with every morning, like your entryway or kitchen counter.
- Remove anything that does not belong there.
- Keep what you reach for regularly.
- Box up anything you are unsure about and revisit it in 30 days.

You do not need to clear the whole house. You need a starting point.
