Here are 7 Tips To A More Productive Move from Unpakt
1.
Go Big or Go Home: When
prioritizing your moving tasks, focus on the most important task, even if it’s
the biggest and most time consuming. Moving your attention to the
quickest, and perhaps least important, task will only cost you in the end.
2.
Divide and Conquer: Divide
your tasks by categories such as packing, cleaning and paperwork. Focus on each
area separately and completely. Rather than pulling paperwork out
multiple times, tackle your mailing address change forms, kid’s school forms,
mortgage documents and more, at once. Don’t let distractions such as
kid’s artwork in the school folder move your attention elsewhere. Kid’s room
packing can be next.
3.
Don’t Shop: While it can be tempting to start shopping ahead
of time, it can create more work in the end. You may not have room for all the
little extras you’ve purchased, or ultimately decide to go down a different
design route once you’re in your new space.
4.
Turn Off Technology: Instead
of letting emails, TV and more, distract you, turn off interruptions so you can
keep your focus on the task at hand.
5.
Plan Your Move: Rather
than talking about what you and your family or housemates SHOULD do, talk about
what you ARE doing. Never leave a conversation without understanding clearly
what you and the other people involved will be handling.
6.
Take a Break: Getting
up and away from the packing and moving reenergizes you and slows down the end
of day crash. The time spent away from the boxes will be more than made
up when all is said and done.
7. Be
Positive: If you begin your day feeling excited
about your upcoming move, you’ll be more productive, and well, a whole lot
happier. Complaining makes you more overwhelmed and less efficient. So, laugh a lot to keep the mood
light. After all, you’re moving into a new home with new adventures
ahead!
