The Madison Senior Living Utilizes Organization to Reduce Stress and Increase Productivity

Being organized can help you feel happier, healthier, and more relaxed, while disorganization can lead to an increased stress level and depression. Clutter leads to heightened stress levels. So, not only is decluttering office spaces and storage rooms a relaxing task, but it can also provide a better understanding of inventory and space requirements. 

When you prioritize organization, you give yourself time to focus on what really matters, like your daily schedule and tasks. This allows you to concentrate on what needs to be completed that day, instead of where you put the tools and materials you need to finish the items on your to-do list. 

Organization creates a calm mind which brings answers to the forefront of a problem. Here at The Madison Senior Living, Plant Operations is focusing on lowering our stress with better organization to create improved productivity.

Some tasks I perform to stay organized are to utilize a day-planner for tasks, a whiteboard for make-readies and projects, and files for forms and paperwork.

When my physical space is organized, my state of mind is calm and content. I know where everything is and in its place.

I begin to feel stressed or overwhelmed when there are too many boxes, or trash, and storage spaces become cluttered.

No matter what your job or occupation, the time spent managing your workspace and work area will pay off greatly with reduced anxiety and greater yield.
