Set a timer for 15 minutes and do as much as you can.

Focus on:

  • Dishes

  • Counters

  • Trash

  • Laundry pickup

  • Quick bathroom wipe

  • Main-surface clutter

  • Tomorrow prep

Simple Version

If you are tired, overwhelmed, sick, or short on time, do only these:

  1. Put food away.

  2. Put trash in the trash can.

  3. Put dishes in or near the sink.

  4. Put dirty laundry in one place.

  5. Clear one surface you will need tomorrow.

A reset does not have to be perfect to be useful.
