The way I can justify this is that it sets up the rest of the year for success. The 4 hours will return 8 in productivity over the next 1000.
But for that to make sense, my room needs to stay fairly clean following today.
So for that, I need a new paradigm over cleanliness...
Every action that leads to a messy environment needs to be nipped in the bud with a permanent solution.
Ex: Mother's bag.
Old strategy - throw it in the corner, now I know where my morning breakfast is every day.
Problem - with time, these bags stack up.
Solution - basic - once there's 2 bags, combine contents and throw away one bag.
Solution - advanced - have a container in your closet where you keep your Clif bars. When mothers bag arrives, unload contents into container, fold up bag, and throw it away.
This goes for everything.
-Toss all dirty clothes in hamper.
-Dishes to dish washer once food is eaten or as soon as you notice their purpose is fulfilled.
-Nothing should be left on the floor ever - always have a spot for everything
-5 min - Sweep floor once a month (requires the above to be fulfilled.)
