Want to become more accurate, but can't do it yet? It's not that hard.
People who always have a tidy home know and effectively apply some rules that make their apartments sparkle with cleanliness.
Quick cleaning
Tidy people don't allow themselves to go to bed with dirty dishes in the sink. They know that a light cleaning of the most easily soiled areas each night before bed will help them start the day with ease.
You can start small - run the robot vacuum cleaner before leaving the house and make your bed in the morning.
If you start to deal with clutter frequently, it will become an easy, doable task rather than an overwhelming chore.
Return to place
When neat people use an object, they immediately return it to its place. For example, when they enter an apartment and take off their shoes, they immediately clean them and put them in the closet, and do not leave them lying dirty in the hallway.
They know they will have to put the item back eventually, but doing it right away will make it much easier.
Storage systems
If you haven't yet invested in effective storage systems for your home, now is the time to do so. An important key to being neat is creating the necessary conditions to become neat.
This means that there should be a place for all the things that might visually clutter your space.
Books, clothes, kitchen utensils should be in their places, not lying around. With the help of storage systems, whether it is a luxurious wardrobe or a compact closet, it is easy to keep things clean and tidy.
Additional tasks
When neat people see that something else needs to be done, they don’t ignore the task, putting it off until later, but rather they do it.
For example, if the mirror in the bathroom gets dirty, they wipe it right away, even if it's not cleaning day yet. Dust on the bookshelf? You can wipe it off even in passing.
Naturally, this approach does not eliminate the need to do a general cleaning, but when that day comes, the task is much easier, because almost everything is clean.
