Feel overwhelmed and inadequate when you try to fit yourself into one-size-fits-all organizational systems?
Resident weirdo and “get your shit together” coach Sarah Bowser’s been there, too — failing with various tools, strategies, and systems and feeling frustrated and guilty because of it. But she’s here to tell you that standardized organizational systems just don't work for everyone, and that’s okay.
In this episode of Get It Together, Weirdo, Sarah emphasizes the importance of embracing your uniqueness, experimenting, and seeking support from others to find the organizational and time management methods that work for you.
What you’ll learn in this episode
- The ineffectiveness of one-size-fits-all systems and societal expectations.
- The importance of self-acceptance and understanding of your unique brain function to create a personalized system.
- The role of experimentation with small changes in finding the tools and strategies that work for you.
- That support and accountability, whether through friends, coaches, or co-working groups, can help you stay motivated and gain new perspectives.
Noteworthy quotes from this episode
“You're not failing. The system is failing you.”
“Not everyone's brain works the same way, and that's okay. Society likes to push these expectations onto us, saying that things need to be done this way or that way in order to be acceptable.”
“It just starts with self-acceptance and understanding. We need to recondition ourselves to be okay with being different, with not needing to force our lives and our needs into a template that doesn't fit. It's important that we reflect on what works for us and what doesn't.”
