The way that I organize myself is that I file all my information into containers that I use in my everyday life. These containers consist of my backpack, safe, and desk. In my backpack, I have all of my notebooks, textbooks, and all materials that relate to school. I consider my backpack as my school specific container as it contains all due dates for all papers, class syllabuses, homework that is in process or already completed, and any machines that I may need to use such as my laptop and calculator. Without my backpack, my life would be unorganized and it would be difficult to function. Ways that I can improve this container is by organizing all of my papers better such as keeping all notes, papers, and syllabus in the appropriate notebook. My backpack has also papers that are from prior semesters that I will never use again, but I still haven’t thrown out those specific papers. If I was able to organize this container better for the future then it will allow for me to be more successful in my future endeavors.
Another container that I use is my safe as it contains all of my personal files such as my passport, financial portfolio, wallet, personal documentations, and varsity medals. My safe is a vital part of my personal life as it contains all the information that I need throughout my college career. This container I keep condensed and organized as it has high priority information. I could improve this container by condensing all of my personal information into a portfolio and uploading copies onto my personal devices in a secure location. I personally struggle with doing this because I feel that digitizing my personal information with make it more susceptible for hackers get my personal information.
My last container is my desk. All of my junk information is located on my desk such as old papers, textbooks, or personal files. My desk I would consider as my least organized container as there is no specific folders or pattern. This event is because I don’t consider things on my desk to have a high priority. I can organize this container by going through all of my old papers and throwing out all that are irrelevant. All files that still have value I can organize by putting them in labeled folders. Containers are an important way to keep all of your personal information organized and in one place. Without containers, I would have to remember all of my information of the tip of my head, which isn’t an appropriate place to keep all my information.
