Organised Chaos? Let’s Drop the Chaos Bit.

We’re big believers that being organised doesn’t mean colour-coding your sock drawer or downloading another app you’ll never open again. Organisation is about clarity, not perfection — and a few well-placed systems can genuinely save your sanity.

Our Favourite Low-Stress Organisation Tips

  1. The 2-Minute Rule (Yes, That One) If it takes less than 2 minutes, do it now. It keeps your to-do list from becoming a novella titled "Things I Meant to Do Last Month."

  2. Keep a Rolling To-Do List Instead of rewriting tasks daily, use a digital tool like Trello or Todoist and roll tasks forward. Less repetition, more momentum.

  3. Batch Your Brain Group similar tasks together — like writing content, replying to emails, or doing admin. It keeps your brain in the right gear instead of making it switch lanes every five minutes.

Our Go-To Tools for Staying Sane

  • Trello: Think digital sticky notes but way more powerful. Great for mapping out projects, tracking content ideas, or managing client workflows. Bonus: it’s visual and satisfying to drag tasks into the “Done” column.

  • Toggl: A super simple time tracker that shows you where your hours go. Perfect if you’re trying to bill more accurately or just want to know how long "a quick email" actually takes (spoiler: it’s never quick).

  • Google Calendar: Not just for meetings. We use it to block time for deep work, admin hours, and (importantly) breaks. If it’s not in the calendar, it doesn’t happen.

You Don’t Need 20 Tools. Just Use a Few Well.

Pick one or two tools that make sense for your workflow, and actually commit to using them consistently. The goal isn’t to become a productivity robot — it’s to feel less overwhelmed and more in control.

Want help setting any of these up? Okay fine, just this once: drop us a message.
