Cleaning:
- As I said on the main page of this section, don't try to clean all at once; just do a little constantly instead. I prefer to do certain chores on certain days of the week; you may prefer to clean one room at a time.
- Rather than try to tidy up a whole room at once, start in one corner and work within an area five feet by five feet. Then move to an adjacent square of the same size and so on until you have the whole room covered.
Organization:
- Train yourself to confine clutter to one small section of each room. Every few days, de-clutter that area.
- If you live in two-story house, keep a small basket at the bottom of the stairs for items that need to go upstairs and vice versa. With each trip up or down the stairs, empty the basket.
