Discreet Caring Help At Your Fingertips

Overwhelmed With Clutter? 5 Tips To Keep You Motivated

www.freedigitalphotos.netIs the laundry piling up? How are your floors looking? Do you get aggravated when you can't find something? Besides having a busy life, there are only 24 hours in the day, How do you work, be a parent, have a relationship, dare to think of having a hobby AND keep your house clean? 
You might think you are the only one out there with dirty clothes or papers stacked up, but you are not.
Keep it real people. It is not easy to juggle all of these things at once. If you are feeling overwhelmed at home, there is hope!

There are ways to simplify to your life by using systems that work with your life. Every life and family is different. There is no right or wrong way to do things, but there are ways to help yourself get through the day without feeling hopeless.
  1. Start by making time for your sanity and space. Take 15 minutes a day to tackle small areas at once. You will be amazed at how much you can get done over a work week. 
  2. Set reasonable expectations.  Instead of the whole closet try half first.
  3. Leave time to put things back away. Adding to the clutter will not help.  
  4. Don't be hard on yourself. If you miss a day, onward and upward, no big deal.
  5. Reward yourself by cleaning the new space you cleared.
Yes folks, it is possible to live a happy and (relatively) clutter free life. Are you ready?
