Organized App-titude

We’re all about organization here at AA1 Self Storage. We want you to be well ordered and intentional with your possessions. You have to have a game plan for organization – it doesn’t just happen. One of the many, many benefits of modern technology is that it has made organization within reach, and we’re not just talking only your possessions. We’re talking your finances, your work or school projects, your shopping lists, and yes, even your mental well-being. Check out these free apps to help you get things in order.

Mint. Let’s start with finances. Mint was created by Intuit, the same folks who brought us TurboTax, QuickBooks, and other software packages. We all know how awesome they are and make filing taxes relatively painless (impossible to take away all the pain). With Mint, you can see all of your bank accounts, retirement, and credit cards balances in one place. It shows you where you are spending money, when your finances are getting low, and reminders for due dates. Talk about an easy way to track your money!

Evernote. A million ideas for blog inspirations or research topics pop into your head everyday. Promise you can remember it for later? For those who can’t, Evernote is the app for you. Here in one place you can write notes and checklists, organize documents and photographs, and share thoughts with project collaborators. Instead of using 3 different paper notebooks and responding to a text message with an email, keep all of your notes and interactions here.

Wunderlist. Like Evernote, Wunderlist allows you to collaborate with others and sync the app on several different devices. Miscommunication will never happen again now that you can share grocery lists with your spouse. Right? It has an easy to navigate interface for all of its different functions and makes a satisfying “Ding!” whenever you complete a task.

Brightnest. You set project and cleaning goals for your home, but the goal deadline seems to go by with said project not being completed. Brightnest keeps track of these projects for your home. After downloading, this app has you tell it some information about your home and what you want it to be like. The app sends you custom-tailored suggestions about storage, floor or countertop options if you are looking to remodel, and how to increase the value of your home.

Headspace. Our homes can be (but are not always) reflections of our soul and mind. Have you given much thought (!) to how well organized and free of clutter your brain is? Meditation is a tried and true method of bringing peace into your day and beyond. Headspace trains you how to meditate everyday beginning with 10 minute sessions. As you progress, you can lengthen your time and a buddy system keeps you and your meditating friends motivated and supportive. Now this is organization we all need!
