Stop building systems for your imaginary self

A complicated system can look beautiful and still fail in everyday life. Start with the places where clutter actually accumulates. If bags always land by the door, create a simple drop zone there. If laundry never makes it into a drawer, make the storage easier to access.

Three rules for a more sustainable reset

  1. Reduce steps. The fewer actions required, the easier a system is to repeat.
  2. Make important things visible. Out of sight can become out of mind.
  3. Reset in small sessions. Ten focused minutes can be more realistic than an ambitious weekend overhaul.

Make the reset repeatable
