Algorithms To Live By is an amazing book. My favorite chapter was the one about sorting where the author comes to the same conclusion I did many years ago – do not sort your socks. It's a waste of time. Bucket them by type instead.

I have a bucket for socks of the type sock. Am I doing it right?

If it works for you, it's right.
