I just recently cleared my place of much bullcrap and have consequently been able to keep cleaning up after myself moment to moment so it doesnt build up and its basically alwaya clean 🤩

    Having a place for things. Never having to look for “x”. Keys, wallet, which type of utensil goes in which slot in the silverware holder. I have saved so much time, avoided problems and given myself mental breaks by simply putting things where they’re needed and being consistent.

      So much of modern life is about about inventory management.

      I like old videos of tribespeople in tropical places. There’s always a guy just lying down in the jungle, doing nothing, with no stuff.

      I’m trying to extend/apply this in a way that if I need to put down something, I think ahead of set places in the house where I put things. That way of I’ve left something somewhere, it’ll always be in one particular place in a room. That way I don’t have to look everywhere for a thing I just put down in order to do something. I only need to look at one or two spots in each room.

      I second this.

      It’s great having specific spots for things. I also have a specific bag for when I go to the gym with its own set of earbuds and other gym ephemera.
