Target one area at a time
It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer volume of stuff that most of us live with. Instead of diving right in and burning out quickly, focus on one area of your home or office at a time.
Because a little positive reinforcement never hurts, start with the easiest areas first. Declutter:
- A chest of drawers
- A hall closet
- One kitchen cupboard
- A single drawer in your desk
Then, move on to the next spot. If it helps, make a list of all the clutter hot spots that need attention and check each one off as you calm the chaos.
