Use these important Tips to unclutter living / work spaces.
Time is a democratic asset; everyone is given the
same 24 hours each day. Save your precious time with these tips:
▪ Don’t
go empty-handed. Whether climbing the stairs, leaving the room, or going
outside, take something with you to put away as you go. Trundle newspapers to
the recycling bin when you go to the garage, carry a pair of shoes to the
closet when you go upstairs, take out a bag of trash when you leave the house.
▪ Use
small bits of time to do small jobs. Fold socks during a television
commercial. Give the sink a quick wipe down as you leave the bathroom. Little
efforts mount up.
▪ Do
chores while you chat.
During telephone conversations, look for “busy hands” jobs that can be done while talking. Chop a salad, sort a drawer, or return out of-place items to their homes while you talk with family or friends. A cordless telephone or headset makes it easier to make good use of telephone time.

▪ Double
up on errands—or stay out of the store. Never make a special trip to do a
single errand; instead, group them together. Visit the dry cleaner nearest the
supermarket, or drive through the bank on the way home from work.
▪ Make
good use of travel time. Audio books are good companions for a driving
commute; use trips to and from school to check in with children. Avoid talking on
cell phones while driving,
