You know how it’s so much easier to give advice to others than to take it yourself?
“You really shouldn’t eat so much sugar.”
“Don’t do stuff that doesn’t make you happy.”
“Give yourself a break and just get some help.”
But when it comes to ourselves, we fall short on our heeded advice or come up with excuses.
I do it too. I tell my kids to get off their electronics all the time. And there I am with iphone or laptop, like it’s an extension to my arm. 😉
What does this have to do with getting organized??
Well, it’s directly related to the question I get asked most often. Spoiler Alert: It has to do with why other people in your house won’t get organized.
Check out today’s short video to see my answer.
And when you’re done, I’d love to hear if you’ve had any successes or failures with this approach.
Remember, influencing others happens over time. It’s not a instant fix or a magic bullet. And sometime those changes show up in the most unexpected ways.
Like my son being completely unaffected by his disastrous room….but painstakingly organizing his trophies by size and color on his dresser. Whaaaattt???
Ok, so your turn. Would love to hear from you in the comments below.
To inspiring change!

Sometimes we just don’t realize how much influence we really do have on other people ! I agree wholeheartedly with you Mridu ! I think unless we DO set an example we really can’t expect much change from those we live with. It will still take time to see those changes but slowly but surely you will ! Thanks Mridu for all you do !
You’re so welcome Dal! I know that slowness in change can be painful…but can reap big rewards. 🙂 Thanks so much for your message. xo, mridu
