30 second cleanup plan

So, the 19 minute daily cleanup Merlin talked about yesterday sounds good and all, but it’s still 19 minutes. If that sounds like a lot of time to spend cleaning–and it does to me–try cleaning just for 30 seconds. That is, take 30 seconds to clean or straighten before you leave for work, head to lunch, or head home.

Any time you’re walking out a door, stop, look around, and take something that’s out of place and put it in its place. Shelve that book. File that folder. Put that cup in the sink. All little things that add up over time.

Now, if you can’t even find thirty seconds, there’s probably not much help for you at all.

Lesson learned from a Time Management seminar given by Mike Collins. Will probably be seeing more from the seminar posted here in the coming weeks.
