There is also a tension between wanting these spaces to look good but also being able to live in them comfortably. , we found that only 14% of people say that they have their family and communal spaces organized.

010 - Organizing Personal Spaces
Organize 365® Research Playlist
I’ll be honest: Organization is optional. While cleaning and tasks of daily living are not optional, you CAN survive without organizing.

Organization always pays you back in time and sometimes money. You can't make anyone else be organized, so you have to start with yourself and your personal spaces. Organization must become a habit starting with these personal spaces. It needs to be something that you do regularly,...

My initial hypothesis was that women were doing more work at home than men. Interestingly, those are not the results of our research! Members of younger generations share housework far more equitably than we expected. Gender roles have changed and we need solutions for all genders, all age groups, and all types of households. Organize 365® is adjusting based on this information.
The literature review covers four major topics in the home: cueing and goal attainment, gender roles, female entrepreneurship, and future research. Listen in for a sneak preview of all these topics.
