ADHD Experts Podcast
Small Steps Lead to Big Changes
Maintaining a clean and organized living space is achieved through practical habits and shared responsibilities. Establish clear goals for common areas, allowing for individual messiness in personal spaces, which promotes harmony. Implementing systems, such as designated places for items like keys, minimizes chaos and fosters accountability. To effectively declutter, schedule time specifically for this task, recognizing that finding free time is rare. Use timers to manage short focused sessions, starting with manageable areas like a single drawer or shelf rather than tackling everything at once. Realistic expectations aid in making progress, and structured planning ensures efficiency in the decluttering process.
