Some people manage to keep their homes perfectly clean at any time of the year.
You can suddenly drop in on them as a guest, but they won’t frantically run around with a rag to restore superficial order.
Instead, they will put the kettle on and perhaps have time to make some cookies or other treats. There are a few rules that such people follow.
Know the difference between neatness and cleanliness
Such people not only have their floors washed, but also their things are in their places. When clothes, toys, books and other things are scattered around the house, it does not create a sense of coziness. On the contrary, it creates a feeling of disorder and chaos.
Order is a habit
Such owners are attentive to all the little things. If something is lying or standing wrong, they immediately correct it or put it back in place. These actions have become a habit, so they are performed almost automatically.
They clean up as they go
One of the main rules is that it is better to do one small action that will take 5-10 minutes than to spend the whole day on general cleaning. Such people always wash the dishes after each meal.
Every day they take a few minutes to wipe down a shelf or table.
Minimalism
Such people do not strive to accumulate things under the pretext of "maybe it will come in handy later." Achieving real order is possible only if a person is surrounded only by truly necessary things.
Trash can
The owners put things in it that they rarely or never use. They don't throw them away right away, but simply make sure that these items are better thrown away, given away or sold.
