Simplified Organization: Learn to Love What Must Be Done

by Mystie Winckler

We are given many gifts—abilities, energy, homes, family, community, opportunities—and we are called to make the best use of them all. Organization is managing our resources to increase the good works we are available and able to accomplish. When we are organized, we are more available to serve at a greater capacity. When we manage our resources and follow through on our commitments, we are more open and engaged, helping our family and others as needs arise. We’re more confident and calmer in our choices, able to adapt as needed when we notice opportunities to serve. If we approach organization from a desire to serve others better rather than to make ourselves more impressive, we will fall into discouragement less often because our heart is in the right place. Our attitude will be organized.
