It's spread. My household organising bug I mean. And it all started with the sock drawer.

The food cupboards are now reasonably organised. The contents of cupboard under the sink have been thoroughly edited and tidied. And as for the garden. It's tidier and more manicured than it's ever been. My study is next on the list and I'm actually looking forward to sorting it out.

My point here, again, is baby steps. So if you want your life in general to be more organised, start with your sock drawer and see what happens.

I've decided to resurrect my Twitter account. I set it up last year and used it for about three and a half days. Then I gave up. I didn't really understand it and, if I'm honest, I still don't. However, people do seem to be using it as a business tool so I've decided to tweet a pearl of wisdom every day and see how many follower I get. I've set up a link from the website. Here goes...

I've cleaned out my sock drawer. I decided that something needed to be done with it after finding a receipt in there from 2006, an obsolete phone charger, three Lego bricks and and infants soother. There was much more and all of this rubbish was, literally, tied up with my socks. So I emptied the entire drawer onto my bed and made sure I only put decent pairs of socks into the drawer. Such a simple task which took four minutes and one that I've put off for years - my sock drawer now represents an organised, functional life.

This got me thinking - in coaching we often talk about replication. If you're doing something in a certain way in one part of your life, the chances are you'll be doing something similar in another area. Dare I check the rest of my drawers and cupboards to assess how neat/tidy/organised they are?

Actually, I didn't need to. I knew that virtually every storage space was moderately disorganised - everything from food cupboards to airing cupboard to cutlery drawer. I also knew that this was easy enough to put right.

Anyway, I'm now on a roll and will report back with progress in a few days.
