505: Hotelifying: Making It Easier for Others in Your Home to Keep It Neat

•

I had a conversation with a friend who was going to be gone for a period of time and her goal is to make it as easy as possible for her home to stay under control while she’s not there. I loved what she said, and it makes me think about how it should always be our goal to make it easier for the other people living in our homes to keep it neat.

    35:48|
    Oh how we (clutter strugglers and procrastinators) are obsessed with (the idea of) efficiency! We love the idea of shaving off unnecessary minutes. We love the idea of making big progress quickly. But in the name of efficiency, we end up procrastinating. It comes down to this: a method isn't efficient if it isn't effective. (Sorry.)

  • 525: Extra Space Isn't Extra

    32:58|
    Oh, how I used to LOVE the idea of extra space. But I loved the idea because I wanted to fill it! Now, I see extra space as necessary. It's not available for more stuff, it's taken up by all the things I need to be able to do in that space.
