Being organized is not only about your closet or pantry. It's about your life. Unfortunately, a lot of people leave things to "chance". By not planning for your future you are being reactive - instead of proactive.
When something happens - such as an accident or illness - are you prepared to deal with all of the things that you will need to deal with? Do you have things in place so that your life will carry on as normal (as can be)?
If you were in the hospital (for example) - would your rent and all of your bills still get paid on time? Do you have quick access to a list of all of the people that you would need to contact to keep things going?
Would those people know where you keep your information so that they could help you? Would they know what you wanted them to do?
You might have a filing system in place - but think about the time it would take to go through everything and find all of the information that you needed.
There are a number of options that might make things easier when you are in a crisis and not able to think clearly.
Having all of your information in one easily accessible place is "being proactive".
Planning for your future - having a list of goals is "being proactive".
Having all of your legal and financial documents in place is "being proactive".
Not sticking your head in the sand and saying "I have time to ...." is "being proactive".
Planning for emergencies and life's challenges is "being proactive".
So start thinking about the future - and plan ..... for whatever might come your way.
