Tips to get motivated to clean house

Keeping a clean house is important to your sanity, health, etc. but it can be hard to get motivated to clean house. The following are tips for getting motivated to clean house:

1. Have your house be temporary dirty. This means that your house should never be so messy that it takes you forever to clean it. Keep the one hour rule in mind. If your house takes more than an hour to get in decent cleaning condition, then it is not temporarily dirty. Temporarily dirty means one meal's dishes in the sink, regular wear and tear and mess, not built up mess. If your house is only temporarily dirty then you will be more motivated to clean it. It will not be such an insurmountable task.

Tips for getting organized

When you start to feel like your life is being overrun with chaos, it is time to get organized. But where do you start? Where do you even begin to get yourself organized? You have so much stuff, and where do you put it all? The following are some great tips for getting organized:

Tip one: Reduce and simplify. If you keep things you do not need, then you will never be able to get organized because you will never have enough room for all of the things you need. So, the first tip for getting organized is to get rid of all of the crap you do not need. Start your organization off with getting rid of anything you haven't used in the last year. Literally, even if it is measuring cups. Just toss them. You will have more peace having them gone and having to buy them again then storing them forever. Plus, you will probably not be able to find things once you do need them, and this means that you will end up buying it anyway.
