Law and Order
Meaning of orderliness
Orderliness is defined as the act of doing things in the right and acceptable way in conformity with rules and regulations of the society. Orderliness can be defined as the art of doing things in a peaceful orderly manner. It is the act by which things are arranged in a proper, neat and systematic way Orderliness entails people taking time to become aware of everything going on in their environment and in their lives which they choose to handle in an orderly manner. Orderliness is associated with other qualities such as cleanliness and diligence – and the desire for order is generally considered as the desired quality.
It is a situation where laws and orders are obeyed and authorities are respected. It is something that should be used by everyone in society in their everyday life. Without orderliness, life can get chaotic. Waking up in the morning, arriving at school early and doing all that is necessary at the time due is orderliness.
Orderliness is having a sense of where things belong and how they relate with each other and keeping them organized accordingly. When there is a place for everything and everything are in its place, then we can think and work effectively. We are also more able to work collaboratively.- to share tools and workspace with others.
