Cleaning Checklist: Kondo

I HATE cleaning. Well, at least I used to. I remember I used to spend HOURS every weekend playing catchup on my cleaning. AND I never felt like my house was ever really ‘clean’. Desperate for a solution and knowing that there must be a better way, I decided to find the secret to having a clean home. After all, I knew that others had clean homes, and it looked like they were barely trying. Hundreds of blog articles and several books later, I realized that I had been going about cleaning the entirely wrong way. Out of all the things I learned, this one thing completely revolutionized the way I looked at cleaning and literally saved me HOURS of time every week. Curious?

It’s really simple. The most effective way to have a clean home is to implement a system for cleaning your house. Having a system eliminates extra work. You aren’t over-cleaning things that don’t need to be cleaned and you aren’t neglecting things that do need to be cleaned. It prevents you from getting overwhelmed because it divides the big task of cleaning your entire house into small manageable tasks you can do every day. And MOST importantly, it allows you to prioritize, so that your smallest efforts have the biggest impact.

Kondo is a smart system for cleaning that ensures that you always get the most done with the least amount of effort. This is how it works. First, you create areas for each of the rooms in your house. Then, for each area, you add in all the cleaning tasks that need to be done for that area and how often they need to be done. That’s it. After that, all you need to do is check Kondo to see what tasks you need to do. Kondo will automatically prioritize which tasks need to be done. If you complete a task, just let the app know and it will let you know the next time you need to clean it again. Need an extra push? You can turn on push notifications to give you that extra reminder. Cleaning has never been more simple. If you always felt like cleaning should be simpler and more stress free, then consider downloading Kondo today!
