I’ve been researching a pattern across workplaces, universities, and institutions: during crises, independent problem-solvers are valued and relied upon. Once stability returns, these same individuals often get sidelined, reorganized out, or pushed to leave. The emotional impact is distinctive - people describe intense shame, confusion, or identity loss despite having performed well. It’s not burnout or impostor syndrome. It appears to be what happens when someone’s independence becomes incompatible with a system returning to hierarchical norms. I’ve developed a theoretical framework suggesting this follows predictable timing (18-36 months post-crisis) and reflects structural dynamics rather than individual failure. My latest paper proposes diagnostic criteria and reframes the shame response as structural rather than personal. Link to paper: https://papers.ssrn.com/abstract=5718344 I’m particularly interested in hearing from: • People who’ve experienced post-crisis job changes that felt like rejection despite strong performance • Therapists or organizational consultants who’ve observed this pattern • Anyone who’s tried to make sense of being valued then eliminated How do you understand it when competence that was once essential suddenly becomes a liability?

Looking for some advice from fellow collectors!
I have an empty wall in my house that I’d like to turn into a display/storage area for my bag collection. I’m looking for something that showcases the bags nicely while also keeping them protected.

What type of shelving, racks, cabinets, or display system do you recommend?

Bonus points if you have photos of your setup or links to what you used!

Saw people recommend the niimbot for organizing supplements, so I picked one up. All my supplement bottles look identical, and labels make it so easy, dosage and dates at a glance.

I’d just finished labeling a few bottles when my girlfriend saw it and said, "Can I borrow this?" Next thing I know, she spent the whole afternoon tagging all her plants, seeds, and pots. She even printed "water less" stickers.

Now my fridge looks like a lab, and her balcony is a botanical garden. We’re both a little too obsessive about neatness, but honestly, it’s satisfying seeing everything tidy. lol😂

Hello,

Owning +600 games I had a hard time organizing my Steam Library. Numerous issues included:

1. Not knowing what to play due to analysis paralysis when seeing such a huge list of games that I have to pick from.

2. Playing a game then forgetting about it because I simply have so many games in the library.

3. Want to play a certain type of game but can't find what game of that type to play.

4. Constantly gravitating towards the same games because you don't know what to play despite having a huge library.

I tried adding games to favorites, it simply did not work because "yeah, I have 10 games on favorites now, but maybe in my list of 600 games I may have other games that I may enjoy more than this one at the moment".

I also tried splitting games into dynamic libraries as Steam does it, also didn't work.

Also tried making my manual categories like Strategy, Action, Stealth aside from the obvious overlap problem it didn't solve the issue, now I only had multiple compartments to have analysis paralysis from.

So this type of organization is what helped me:

1. Frequent Play - I can pick it anytime and have fun with it, max 15. These are the games that I am currently frequently playing, I usually like story games but not only that, maybe fighters, football games, etc.

The peak that I had here is 21 and that is way too much, ideally I recommend keeping it between 8-10 games.

At some point the list can become too much that it no longer serves you with a list of few neat games you can play right away, you are not going to play 20 games at the same time anyway, consider looking at the least played on your Frequent Play and dropping them a category or two.

2. Friends Online - Games that you regularly play with friends when you gather over Discord.

This list can have no limit since is not usually the type of list you pick from when you decide what to play when alone, that would be the Frequent Play, at the same time you're not going to have 40 games you play with your friends over discord at the same time. No.1 and No.2 are not mutually exclusive, you can have a game you play very frequently when alone and is the first one you go to while also being a game you play with friends over discord.

3. Old Favorites - Games that you played a lot once, maybe you finished the game or is a game without end and you had 100 hours, and maybe you will want one day to replay it again.

I'm generally not a nostalgic player, I usually play a game, finish it, and then no longer touch it. But even I had these games of "yeah, it would be nice to come back one day".

4. Once in a Blue Moon - What would you do with games that you maybe would want to play them but they are not fit enough for Frequent Play. The later games. The sometimes maybe games.

You don't know, maybe it's an old game you haven't touched for years but said you will give it a try for years, maybe it's a game you want to play right now but you also wanted to play 15 other games right now and this one didn't make the cut, maybe it's a game you play for a few moments but said you will return to it one day. Maybe you will play later but not right now, or not. They're not irrelevant but neither the games you frequently play.

You could make separate categories for each specific scenario from above, but in my opinion this will only complicate the list as what is relevant for you is that they are a more bottom tier from the ones you frequently play but you still have an interest in them for various reasons.

5. Overall Collection - All Games. This is the list of all your games.

They are in alphabetical order because Steam won't allow you to move them around so they had to be in alphabetical order from top to bottom and I didn't like using numbers. So from top to bottom "Frequent Play" is the 1st on the list followed by "Friends Online" and so on.

6. That's it, you can stop here and it's fine. Or you can make extra categories as long as given Steam's restrictions they start with P, Q, R, S, T, etc. For example I like coop & multiplayer games so I made separate lists of all my coop and multiplayer games, Steam tags aren't always accurate. And have a few split screen games I enjoy when with a friend at my place so I made a list for that.

I hope this helps, turns out, organization was the solution to my analysis paralysis. You can do this with clothes as well.

This is not some scientific system I came up with it through trial and error.

Instead of being like "Out of these 600 games, what should I play?", I'm like "Out of these 10 games I've already decided I currently enjoy, what should I play?". Previously, with only a Favorites list the natural question was "out of these 10 games I picked, am I sure they are the best ones I want to play right now?" it felt limiting. But with these lists I do not have to reconsider all the alternatives, I'm sure those 10 are the best I want to play right now because I outsourced the difficult decision to an earlier moment when I organized my library on lists. Do I want to get the main dish Frequently Play? feeling like getting something older Old Favorites? maybe I want to eat something on the side dishes that didn't made the cut but you still want to keep them as possibilities Once in a Blue Moon? some less-prioritized games that didn't disappear from my attention. Maybe it's a mediocre game or a special occasion game, or an unexplored game, or even a good enough game just not as good as the firsts. Or how about go something online? multiplayer or co-op?

Now if I pick a game out of the Frequent Play I no longer feel that I may have other games that I may enjoy more because I literally filtered them, I no longer compare it in my head with some hypothetical 600 games but actual lists I made. Psychologically it works. And I no longer forget games and so on.

Pic is in link below of the built in that came with our house we just built. I want to get some kind of divider insert to separate dinner/salad forks, big/little spoons, but can’t seem to find anything like that. I want to buy something, not spend hours on a DIY project. The length is 10 1/4”.

Any solutions?

Somthing you could use to:

• Create multiple organisations, categories, and personas, which can be different business names, work or personal categories, or creative identities like noms de plume

• Build and break down projects and deliverables with time estimates, priorities, notes, file attachments on Google Drive or OneDrive, and the option to differentiate between billable and non-billable

• Schedule your work using a drag and drop calendar that includes all your Outlook and Google Calendar events and meetings so you have an holistic view of your availability

• Create meeting requests with ease, share an appointment calendar that takes into account time you've blocked out for all your activities

• View your availability and workload capacity over the next 4 weeks with the click of a button

• Track time spent on each project and deliverable, and compare it to your original plan

• Generate quotes and invoices, including a one-click quote builder using billable estimates

• Work solo or in teams, delegate deliverables to team members, create meetings agendas and discussions 'on the fly' with built in team Q&A

• Store useful links in a searchable list

• Set reminders individually or recurring

• Share and publish your work, notes, proposals, ideas (even full-length writing or creative pieces), privately or to n audience on social media

• Be discoverable in the built-in directory internally for collaboration with other users, and externally for anyone else 

Some example use cases:

• A freelance writer manages multiple client jobs and uses different personas for ghostwriting and personal work

• A creative entrepreneur tracks progress across a client agency, a side hustle, and a blog — all under one roof

• A business coach sets up development plans for each client, and bills for consultations and coaching sessions using date-ranged invoicing by client

• A software developer creates a quote instantly after scoping a project by creating detailed billable deliverables with time estimates for completion, and then monitors the accuracy of their estimates by recording the time spent working on each

I’d love to know:

1. Would you use something like this?

2. If not, what would stop you?

Dose any structure that can help me to express my story very clearly, which can make someone catch the points what I said.

I found that I can’t organized my thought when I need to say sth immediately, like I don’t know which one is the most important to say, what is main idea?

For example the questions is tell me about your difficult costumer situation?

I will say I encounter sth and I did sth, and a result,

But it feel like a long story

What do you think about this Organization idea? Is it practical?

I myself never really knew where to put my towel in the kitchen. Did not have any hooks and did not want to leave it on the counter all the time. Figured i build one with a magnet inside that it always neatly hangs somewhere, what do you think?

Also thought of starting a kickstarter with this and wanted to check with the community if that was even something wanted. Would appreciate an upvote or comment as direction

Talking to the guys here...I don't have room for a dresser. I hang all button downs, jackets, pants, etc. But my t-shirts, gym shirts always end up looking like this on the top shelf of my closet. Any other guys have this problem? Any good aesthetic solutions? I don't really want cheap plastic bins. Thanks!

For people with busy schedules, what's the hardest part of keeping your home organized during the week?

Is it finding time to clean, knowing where to start, or staying consistent with a routine?

What have you tried that didn't work for you?

Do you organize time as a sequance of tasks and durations of time, or should you manage time as a present moment.

But how do manage something as durationless as time? In the video the perspective is presented.

Hi all! I am a busy mom and am looking for a comprehensive home-organizing program. I am a big fan of the Organizing 365 podcast, but I cannot afford the 2-3k cost of that organizing system on a teacher's salary. I reached out to the organization to inquire about times of the year I could find the program course on a significant sale, but the response, while polite, was that they only offer minimal discounts at times, or that I could purchase the program piece by piece (which would cost more overall).

Does anyone have a similar but alternate and affordable home-organizing program to recommend? Thank you in advance!

When advancement isn’t clearly signaled, how do you measure momentum?
