A cluttered home can make you feel overwhelmed. Feeling this way from the moment you wake up will make you feel sluggish and not want to tackle your daily goals. This is especially true if you are fortunate enough to work from the comfort of your own home.
So, if you feel like your home is a mess and is due for a reset, read this article until the very end. Over the next five or so minutes, we're going to share with you 5 simple steps that you can take to bring your home to a complete reset.
And let us tell you - you'll instantly feel the difference. Your mind will be clearer and you'll want to do more of the things that you know you should be doing during the day.
Start With a Clean Slate
If your home is messy or hasn't been cleaned up in a while, you need to start with this step. The first thing you want to do is clean up and put every room in your home (including your home office) in order.
That way, the following five steps will be significantly easier to complete. What's more is that when your home is clean and organized (or at least as much as it could be), you'll be in the right mindset to take charge and bring your home to a full reset.
Declutter
Once you've cleaned up your home and have put things in order, one great way to reset your home is to simply get rid of all the small and unnecessary items that are scattered around. While you might not think those pens or that piece of paper on your desk matter, when you add them all up, they can certainly make your space look far more cluttered than it needs to be.
So, one simple way to reset your home is to simply declutter your home from all the random items that you don't always use. And that doesn't mean you have to throw them away. You can put them away in bags and store them away, or simply hide them in drawers where you can't see them all the time.
Deep Clean Your Home
Once you've decluttered your home, there will be a lot of open space where dust would have been building up over the months and years. The next step in resetting your home would be to deep clean it fully. This includes mopping the floor, dusting the shelves, and wiping down all surfaces, to name a few. Once your home and home office space is deep cleaned, you can come onto the last step of the process.
Organize All Remaining Items
Once your home has been deep cleaned, it's time to organize all of your remaining items. While you don't need to worry about organizing your entire house, one area that you need to pay the most attention to is your home office.
You want to keep that area of your home as organized and clutter-free as possible. The reason is that it will have a direct impact on your focus, productivity, and willingness to perform at work and on your projects.
Invest in New Furniture
Resetting your home isn't just about cleaning up and throwing away items that make your home look cluttered. One way to bring life to your home is to invest in new furniture. If you're someone who works from home, new furniture could mean a new height-adjustable desk such as our E7 PRO, or an ergonomic chair such as our BS8.
Investing in this type of furniture for your home office will not only make your office space appear newer but thanks to the added comfort that these two products have to offer, working will be a lot more enjoyable. As a result, your focus will improve, and so will your performance.
Conclusion:
Resetting your home can be a challenge, especially when you feel overwhelmed by all the clutter that has been building up over the months and years. However, the process of making the inside space of your home simpler doesn't need to be a challenge.
All you need to do is follow the five steps that we shared in the article, and resetting your home can be done as quickly as within a few hours. Once you do that, to keep your home nice and clean, all you need to try and do is stay on top of it every week or so.
