Everyone is looking for a way to spend less time decluttering while achieving the same results, if the amount of posts on the subject are anything to go by.<\/p>\n
Cutting the amount of time you spend decluttering really isn\u2019t that hard, though. In fact, it\u2019s as simple as asking yourself 3 short questions.<\/p>\n
AKA the most important question that everyone forgets to ask. If you start anything<\/i> without a reason to do it, you\u2019ll fail 99.9% of the time – and the same is true with decluttering.<\/p>\n
Before you even pick up a CD, make sure you know why. Whatever your motives, having something to aim for and visualise while you clean up will make decluttering a whole lot easier.<\/p>\n
Of course, finding a motivation isn\u2019t always easy. Almost everyone feels a compulsion to tidy up because we\u2019re told its the \u201d\u02dcright thing\u2019 to do when we\u2019re young, although not many people know why they should tidy up – the emotional and practical benefits.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, it\u2019s easy to pick out a few reasons. Just sit down with a pen and paper and think about how more space and less clutter will benefit you: it could be a cleaner home, more space for the kids to play in or even just a bit more space to buy new stuff.<\/p>\n

And no, \u201d\u02dcwalking around and picking up stuff every now and again\u2019 isn\u2019t a plan\u201d\u00a6<\/p>\n Different people declutter in different ways, although the fundamentals usually remain the same: tackle one room at a time, work in bursts rather than a marathon and try and enlist help where possible.<\/p>\n If you want some further advice on easy ways to declutter, check out this post<\/a>!<\/p>\n The biggest obstruction to your decluttering efforts is time. The fact is, most people would prefer to do something \u201d\u02dcfun\u2019 rather than spend time cleaning up.<\/p>\n Therefore, you\u2019ll need to set aside some time to declutter – and stick to it! Generally, Sunday is a good day to tackle the task, as you\u2019ve already had a day off to relax.<\/p>\n Not everyone has the discipline to declutter for hours on end, though. If you\u2019re one of them, you might find it easier to spend 20 minutes decluttering every now and again; after all, every little helps.
