#1 Never leave a room empty-handed
Always bring back things to the place they belong. Every time you leave a room, try to grab something to bring with you and place it back in its place.
#2 Clean a little at a time
Instead of waiting several weeks for all of your laundries to pile up, do a couple of small loads a week. This way, it’s more manageable, gonna take a lot less time, and it’s less of a burden. This also applies to your dishes, don’t wait for them to pile up, wash a dish after your use.
#3 Set a routine
Tidy people always have a set routine for cleaning. Think about your schedule and where you could build in a little bit of cleaning time every day or every few days.
#4 Don’t clutter your space
Don’t over decorate and don’t overstuff your space.

#5 Clean first, rest later
Do what you have to do first, then relax after, because once you start relaxing, it becomes so challenging to get the motivation to get up and start cleaning.
#6 Get others involved
Don’t let the entire burden of cleaning fall to you, get people involved in ways that they can.
#7 Have a place for everything
If everything has a place, you know exactly where to put it back.
#8 Work smarter, not harder
You can try to follow hacks and shortcuts and make your life easier. For example, you can get a robot vacuum. This alone can cut up to 10 minutes of your cleaning time every single day.
#9 Always be decluttering
Decluttering is not just something you do one time and it’s over with, you have to constantly be on the lookout for clutter hot spots that are happening. You could also donate or give things away that you no longer use.
