What Intuitive Organizational Type Are You

as we move through the digital decluttering process, it's important that you understand what level of organization is realistic and functional for you. That's why we've developed the intuitive organizational type model, an assessment that examines our organizational tendencies and preferences. The intuitive organizational type model is based on the idea that each person falls somewhere different on the continuum of organization. Knowing your organizational type is not just about knowing how organized you naturally are, it is also about knowing what level of organization is functional and productive for you now these are general categories and descriptions so you will find that none of these may fit you perfectly. Our organizational habits and preferences can shift during our life cycle can alter as we change jobs and can even fluctuate from day to day. Some of us are confident sometimes or strivers other times and still indifferent most of the time. However, it can be helpful for you t...

o identify your base or dominant type. The intuitive organizational type that is most dominant in your personality and thus dictates the majority of your habits. Your type is based on where you fall along two different measures. One your organizational preference or how organized you prefer or like things to be, and to your organizational tendency, how intuitive or natural it is for you to be and stay organized. The four common types are competent, naturally organized but without a strong preference for organization, strong natural tendency for minimal clutter and quick decisions execute er naturally organized and a strong preference for organization. This is closest to the traditional type, a personality this person has a strong preference and appreciation for systems categories and processes indifferent, low inclination towards organization and no strong preference for it, comfortable with ambiguity and often inclined towards creative work striver low inclination towards organization and a strong preference for it. Typical patterns may include trying to get organized or setting up systems, but then having issues maintaining them. This type of person may have a narrative of being disorganized and may even feel that not being organized holds them back. It's important to note that no type is superior or better than any other type. Each type just walks through the world and through their digital life differently. The takeaway here is not that you should try to change your type. In fact the opposite by embracing your type, you may even gain a better understanding about the type of work you should be doing in the world and maybe even help others personally. I used to fight my execute er type, hating that organization was so important to me while so many of my colleagues were unbothered by their digital disasters. If I had dozens of emails piled up in my inbox or unsorted files, I just felt like I couldn't focus on getting important work done. But over time I've learned to channel my organization inclinations and preferences setting up digital systems that work in the long run with minimal maintenance by leaning into my natural preference and tendency, I've also been able to help others. In fact this course is only possible because I've learned to embrace my execute er type personality by knowing your intuitive organizational type. You can set realistic expectations for yourself and also gain greater awareness of your personal hang ups. For example a striver type can get overly fixated on the perfect organization system, neglecting high impact tasks. As a result a competent type person can choose to zoom through some sections of this course, choosing not to spend too much time on some of the more minor detailed areas. So whatever your base intuitive organizational type is, this course will help you stay focused on high impact changes, decluttering the most critical digital functions, ready to figure out your intuitive organizational type. Go ahead and open up the following worksheet to discover your type and uncover specific guidelines for it. The more you know about your organizational style, the easier this journey will be.

This class is well organized and flows well. There is one thing I do NOT like is the reference to another class in the Syllabus: "Kill The Chaos of Information Overload with Evernote Webinar" The webinar has only one good tip, use Tabs in Evernote. The webinar hypes more tips if you buy the course by Charles Bird. I bought the course for $197 which was listed as a discount from a much higher price. The course is poorly assembled, out of date, and hardly worth more than a few dollars. It assembled with a bunch of short videos, each video starts after he is talking and ends before he is finished. Evernote Scanner is no longer made and Evernote no longer supports the software.
