Hey there my friends
I know that keeping our spaces tidy can be a challenge, but trust me, there's a fun and easy way to achieve instant tidiness, even for the laziest of us.
Here's my quick and easy guide:
- Gather your supplies. You'll need a trash bag and a box for items that need to be moved to a different spot. (You can skip the donate box if you don't have anything to donate.)
- Choose a small area to declutter. It could be your desk, a kitchen countertop, a drawer, or even that neglected corner of your room.
- Set a timer for 10 minutes. This will help you stay focused and motivated.
- Use the two-box approach.
- Trash Box: Identify the obvious trash and toss it in the trash bag.
- Relocate Box: If you come across things that belong somewhere else in your space, chuck them into the relocation box.
- Make quick decisions. Don't waste time agonizing over what to keep and what to get rid of. Trust your gut and make snap decisions.
- Clear surfaces. Put everything back where it belongs, give things a quick wipe-down
- Repeat regularly. The key to keeping your space clutter-free is making this a habit. Dedicate 10 minutes each day or a few times a week to tackle a different spot. Consistency is the name of the game
Here are a few tips to make decluttering even easier for fat house cats like me
- Start really small. If you're feeling overwhelmed, start with decluttering one small surface, like your desk or coffee table top.
- Take breaks. If you start to feel tired, take a break. There's no need to rush. The goal is to have fun and enjoy the process.
- Get help. If you have friends, ask them to help you with the heavy lifting. They can also help you make decisions about what to keep and what to get rid of.
Decluttering can be a fun and rewarding experience for fat house cats of all sizes. It's a great way to clear out the clutter and create a more peaceful and relaxing space to lounge around in. So get started today and see how much tidier your space can be in just 10 minutes!
