I need better life organising skills

[surreyisik]

My life has been all over the place for a number of reasons - moving countries, new baby, very demanding job etc. we are now moving to our hopefully forever dream home and really want to fix this.
I'm always having a hard time keeping the place tidy and clean, drawers organised, eating well, structuring days to be productive and fun, especially weekends.
What are your top tips to be on top of your adult life?

For cleaning and tidying look up the tomm method. Helps me with a baby and keeping the house tidy.

Making sure you’re sharing the load with partner. If you’re both working full time get a cleaner.

I significantly reduced the amount of stuff I owned and got plenty of storage so everything has a place. It makes it easier to put away and find again.

I write everything down, a to do list for the week, I have a notepad in the kitchen to write down when we run out of something so when I do the food shopping ive already got most of my list.

I have a list of free/cheap things to do so if I’m ever stuck for ideas, I always have somewhere to get ideas from so I don’t have an excuse to sit in the house.

De-clutter! Be ruthless.
If you don’t de-clutter regularly, you are essentially just moving ‘stuff’ from one place to another.

Do the dishes at night, not the next morning.

Seriously, it's such a little thing that absolutely ruins the flow of my day.

THIS. Do NOT do it all yourself.
