Gardening is a creative activity and sometimes creativity and organization don’t mix well. To plant a garden, you have to plan and then implement. Tools and supplies are needed and that’s were the trouble starts. When tools are out of place, frustation starts. Frustation interferes with creativity. Creativity is enhanced when your mind is clear and you are able to stay focused on the task at hand. Hobbies are fun when you relax and enjoy the process.
Stay organized to keep your creativity flowing. Here’s a two step process on how to organize your garden tools, click for link. The key is to have less. The less you have to deal with, the easier it is to stay organized. Maybe you can pay a neighborhood kid to keep your gardening supplies clean and organized. Of course, you must have a home for everything first. Your helper won’t know were to put stuff unless you guide them. But, once you train them, they can come over every Sunday evening and get it all cleaned up the way you like it. Delegating helps you to stay focused. Staying focused means you’ll get done faster and things will start growing sooner.
