It's rather a tough task to become organized, but it is even more difficult to stay organized. This is where the true work commences, and if you don't have a plan and a bit of help, it's going to be very tough to do.

It will not be very long before you and everyone else slips back into the bad habits that got you there in the first place. 

There are a lot of moving parts in every organization,Task Organizing Can Be A Challenge Articles and all of the large processes are essential to streamline and makes sure that they are as efficient as possible, but don’t forget about the small things.  The big things are very important to fix and concentrate, but on a daily basis, everybody can look at the things that they do.  Everybody has multiple tasks that need to perform each day and if you look closely at each of them, there are most likely some areas which can be improved. 

Making a big change frequently starts with making little changes.  These are the easier things to fix and they will help each individual get more efficient and will also teach them to seek out and identify waste in other places.  It needs to be understood that eliminating waste from your own routine and your own processes is a helpful step that helps the organization and will help everybody else in the process. 

Once everybody takes responsibility for their own space and their own actions, it's a much easier transition to ask them to do it on a larger scale.  This is where the practice and repetition comes into play.  Because you can make all of the changes that you want, if nobody keeps up with them and makes them a part of the daily routine, then they will just slowly fade into the background and the changes will never take root. 

Another problem with letting these changes revert back to the old ways is in the perception of change.  The next time somebody suggests the changes and tries to implement them, you will have a culture of indifference.  People will say a thing like it was tried before but did not work and so what is the point of trying it again.  They will doubt the legitimacy of the change and not put their full effort into making an honest go of it.  This will not just affect the men and women that were there for the first try, but also the new staff.
