‘B‘ is for Bags and today I look at some great new incentives on the market and some new ideas for what you already have. Not only does it make sense to keep bags organised, but in a lot of cases having an organised bag where items are stored separately can be the way to keep yourself healthier. I recently saw a segment on The Doctors where they took swabs from gym bags which showed traces of Ecoli, fungi, fecal bacteria, Pneumonia, Chloroform and even some germs that can lead to heart inflammation. Blah!
And why? because usually everything is just thrown in the bag without thought. Shoes are thrown in the bag ‘unwrapped’ and their soles land on sweaty towels and underwear that then touch things like books, headphones on iPods, and the mouthpieces of drink bottles. I even know some people who will easily throw wet clothes in with dry. So don’t be lazy people, get your bags organised, save time and keep healthier, and while you’re at it, pass the wisdom on to your kids at an early age.
