In this deep-dive episode of our executive function series, I share how to organize your life in a brain-friendly way and the practical strategies that helped me go from chaotic clutter to sustainable systems, even with executive function challenges.

📌 Key Topics:

• The complex executive function skills involved in organization
• Why traditional organizing methods often lead to burnout
• My personal journey with digital, physical, and mental clutter
• How to break the exhausting organize-crash-repeat cycle
• Energy management strategies for sustainable organization
• Finding homes for everything to reduce decision fatigue

🗣️ Featured Quote: "Organization isn't about perfection—it's about being able to pull things back to a calm, peaceful state without overwhelm."

💡 Strategy Breakdown:

• Start small and limit yourself to avoid the hyperfocus-crash cycle
• Use the trash/donate/elsewhere system to streamline decision-making
• Create homes for everything to reduce constant decision fatigue
• Build simple 30-minute daily maintenance routines
• Implement the Now/Not Now method to organize your thoughts
• Simplify categories to reduce decision overload

🎯 Coming Up Next: Join us next week as we continue our executive function series with strategies for another critical executive function skill.

🔑 Key Takeaway: Organization works differently for unique brains—it's about creating systems that work with your brain, not against it. With the right approach, you can maintain organization without exhaustion.
