Organize. Declutter. These are buzz words that you see in most home magazines. The Marie Kondo method, the minimalism movement, and feng shui are some of the things that have influenced how we take care of our homes.

But tidying up is nothing new. I can remember my own lola going about her day, briskly barking orders at househelps to keep the home clean.  I don’t know about you but I really appreciate a clean home. It does not matter to me so much if the furnishings and the home are simple. One may have a mansion but if it is not clean, you can feel it, or worse, maybe even smell it.

This is a simple task at hand though. It is a way to organize your home office area (a.k.a. desk). Watch the video for the tips.

Tidying Up

Make tidying up a part of your lifestyle. Organizing and decluttering are best done regularly, instead of making a mess to clean up at some later date. Chances are the cleaning up becomes such a big project that procrastination could be the reaction. This is the story of my life, and I can’t believe that it’s just me. Spring cleaning is great for the big clean-up, but a daily tidying-up ritual is the best way to go…before the molehill becomes a mountain (or several mountains).
