Do you consider yourself well-organized?

I am reasonably well-organized, particularly at work. In fact, after the first of the year I am going to a colleagues office to help him get organized.

Laura, 37
Lowell, MA USA

I'm pretty well-organized, but I don't use a lot of the structured to-do lists and schedules that many people regard as the only method for organization.

Jane, 63
West Linn, OR USA

Sometimes I am. When it comes to my bedroom, I have a place for everything, but the clothes like to go where ever they want :P

Ashley, 20
Jacksonville, FL USA

No way. I have a desk simply full of papers and items of that nature.

You Me

At work, yes; at home, no. hehe

Firelady, 24
Frisco, TX USA

Yes, very.

Felicia, 36
Lowell, MA USA

I've attempted to be a few times, but for the most part no.

not completely

Savannah, 17

In my younger days, I was pretty much a slob. Now, I consider myself fairly well organized. I like to keep my house clean and my bills straight.

I've always considered myself well-organized but lately I seem to be slipping. One of my resolutions is to learn to organize my time better.

Reba, 57
Gaithersburg, MD USA

I'm moderately well-organized. I know where a fairly large percentage of my stuff is.

Karen, 23
Ames, IA USA

At work, extremely. At home, no!!!

Fisch, 47
Preston, CT USA

Not really.

Aly, 17

fairly. Depends on the room and environment. Like the garage is a lost cause. Other rooms need to be perfect like the bathrooms. That's just a given.

Stephanie, 25
TX USA

No, im utterly disorganized.

Talia, 25
Tallahassee, FL USA

Yes. It takes a little effort, but I think it's worth it.

Cathie, 53
Novi, MI USA

I'm pretty well organized, but I'm a terrible procrastinator. Maybe I should say I can be well organized when I have to.

Judy, 62
Easton, KS USA

HA! That's a joke! I'm the complete opposite! I'm forever trying to get my life MORE organized!

Tam

Well organized? Me? No way - I misplace things all the time and often forget to do things if they aren't written down somewhere. How I managed to get through high school being as disorganized as I am, I don't know -- but somehow I made it.

Jared
Crestline, CA USA

Relatively.

Keri-Jade, 23
Brampton, Ontario CANADA

Most of the time I am well-organized. I can get sloppy, but I still know where everything is!

Tracy, 24
Ocean City, NJ USA

It depends on what you mean be 'organized'...and what you mean by 'well.'

Octavian, 31

I consider myself a Woman In Control of Detail. Some people find me a controlling woman. Very few people assume that I must be the person who lost the vital piece of paperwork or the pruning shears or the keys to the kingdom.

Jill, 61
Saylorsburg, PA USA

Pretty much. I like to know where things are and what's going on. I don't know if it is organizational skills or the fact that I am a control freak. Or do you think the two traits go hand in hand?

Janet, 45
E. Brunswick, NJ USA

I am finally answering questions from a month ago. I don't think I am that organized.

KarenNJ, 25
Milltown, NJ USA

Yes and no. My room is a mess, but I know where everything is. I keep good track of records and appointments and assignments and stuff, and I love writing things down and making lists and alphabetizing and generally organizing things.
