When it comes to keeping things tidy and cleaning on the go, the key is finding simple and efficient strategies.
Let’s be honest—cleaning can sometimes feel like a never-ending cycle. You wipe down the counters, only to find crumbs in the corners an hour later. You finally tackle that mountain of laundry, and suddenly, there’s another pile waiting for you. It’s like a game you didn’t sign up to play, but somehow, you’re always losing.
The truth is, no matter how much we tidy up, there’s always something else that needs our attention. And you know what? That’s okay, as long as we got a system to tackle it, were going to be alright !
Tips to keeping your home organized tidy and clean
Let’s face it—life gets busy, and staying on top of cleaning can feel impossible when you’re constantly on the move. But don’t worry! Keeping things neat and organized while you’re out and about doesn’t have to be a chore. Here are a few simple tips you can start using today to stay tidy no matter where life takes you.
Tip one : Keeping cleaning supplies handy and nearby
One effective way to make cleaning less frustrating is to keep cleaning supplies within reach. Having cleaning products and tools nearby ensures you’re always prepared for any mess that might arise. This simple practice can save you time and make it easier to tackle unexpected spills and clutter.
I use this simple rule, “if you see it, pick it up and clean it” it might sound basic, but it works wonders. It’s amazing how much of a difference this simple rule makes.
Tip two : setting a 15 min timer
One effective method to maintain a clean and organized home is to dedicate just 15 minutes each day to tidying up. Set a timer for 15 minutes, and involve your kids in the process. Focus on cleaning one area at a time until the timer goes off. Tasks can be as straightforward as washing a few dishes or vacuuming a section of the house. This approach makes the task seem more achievable and transforms it into a fun challenge, promoting teamwork and quick outcomes.
Tip three : Utilize waiting time
Make the most of those moments when you find yourself waiting, whether its cooking a meal, or during laundry cycles. Use the time to tidy up your surroundings. I often declutter a space or do a quick sweep up of the floors. This not only keeps my area clean and organized but also saves me valuable time, enabling me to concentrate on more productive tasks throughout the day.
Tip four : Break it down, or categorize your tasks
Instead of attempting to clean everything at once, focus on the small, manageable tasks that can be completed quickly.
for instance, tackle a few dishes in the sink, or do a quick wipe down of counters. By addressig those small jobs promptly, you prevent them from piling up. Trust me, you’ll thank yourself later for staying on top of things.
Tip five: Multitask
I typically don’t advise beginners to multitask, as it can lead to distractions and overwhelm. However, for those who are more skilled and proficient, I wholeheartedly recommend it. Look for opportunities to combine tasks, such as cleaning and other activities, depending on what they are. For example, you can listen to a podcast or watch a vlog while cleaning or doing laundry, or catch up with a friend over the phone while tidying up. This strategy can make the cleaning process more enjoyable and less intimidating, transforming a chore into a more engaging experience.
Cleaning doesn’t have to be a tedious chore. By incorporating these tips into your routine, you can transform the way you approach about tidying and cleaning up. Remember, small changes lead to significant improvements in maintaining a clean, and organized space. Embrace these strategies and adapt them to your routine for a more manageable and enjoyable part of your day.
LEAVE YOUR THOUGHTS 💭
In the meantime…
live life to the fullest, laugh as much as you can, love without condition or measure.
Your Story is important to someone else. The details of your testimony are life to someone else. I couldn’t have spoken into strangers life, if I myself did not go through the battles. I can only speak because I know the pain, the hurt, and confusion. I pray God comforts us, and gives us the grace to tell our story, no matter how small the details are.
Let’s not hesitate to share our testimonies and help each other walk through the valleys, and reach our destinations together. With a sense of fulfillment, and helping others get there can be a rewarding and satisfying experience, because when we lift each other up, we don’t just reach our destinations, we thrive in them.
I’d love to share your Story on my SITE!
