Less stuff: I got rid of like 1/2 my clothes now I have 1/2 as many clothes to fold. It is amazing.
Cup Collection: It’s mostly usually cups and clothes ya? having a dishwasher helps A LOT if you don’t have a dishwasher that is very hard, I’m sorry.
I just try to load and unload the dishwasher once a day. Cup collection time. unload dishwasher in the AM and put stuff in and run before bed (takes like 5–10 min each way).
Counter Clear: I put away all my skincare after every time I use it. Bathroom counter (or vanity if you use that). Takes like 2 min and is visually helpful to not have that clutter.
Extra tips:
Vacuum rly quick for like 5 min every day or two (my cats make a mess so it’s easier to want to do this).
Mop once a week on Fridays (I have my husband do this)
House keeper comes once a month on the Friday before I menstruate and can’t do anything but be a blob And just cleans in a way I didn’t even know was possible and really just helps reset.

i feel a different kind of reset when I declutter and deep clean. the kind of cleaning where i (struggling btw) to pull out the fridge to get behind it and I’m on my hands and knees with an old toothbrush to get into the crevices unseen before but somehow has 6+months of accumulated dust & dirt. all my shelves are nice and neat with the labels pulled forward, my clothes are folded and hung identically, my carpets have been deodorized and have fresh vacuum lines, couch has been wet-vac’d, fluffed, and arranged perfectly. ceiling fans, shelves, books cases and tops of cabinet have been dusted, disinfected and wiped. All my dishes have been re-washed, the cabinets & drawers dumped out and cleaned, food sorted in toss(expired), donate, and re-shelf. Bathroom spick and span. I just love when i do a deep clean with my series of podcast, shows and music to keep me entertained in the background. I even gave both my cats a deep clean: de-shed comb through, bath, de-shed comb again, nails clipped and ears cleaned. the got the de-shed comb twice because I really did want them to trap hair on my freshly cleaned couch and carpets. my apartment smells divine with the fragrance I put on.
Now for my everything shower! today (Monday=BUZY with work) hurts less since I get to go back to my spotless home and cook a nice meal with a podcast on and my cats watching me.

Just like brushing your teeth or showering or washing your hair it’s something you have to do regularly. Totally agree with marxinista that everything should have a place that makes things so much easier! I would say just when you take clothes off, put them in a hamper (I like the multi-compartment ones for sorting) or hang them up, throw trash away immediately, wash dishes after you use them, try to prevent clutter before it even accumulates. Try the flylady method! Omg ALSO I love my robot vacuum running it daily really helps

just putting some things into drawers and giving the counter a nice little spray and wipe down is sometimes all you need to feel like a person!
