Hello everyone and welcome to ideas for
a better life. I am Eugenio Paya

00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:21.640
Ruiz, a stubborn technologist and lover
of personal development. Today I want to

3
00:00:22.039 --> 00:00:28.120
share with you six simple tricks to
keep your house tidy. Before you start,

4
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:32.600
remind you, as always, that
you have at your disposal a compilation

5
00:00:32.679 --> 00:00:38.560
of the most relevant ideas and advice
on personal development in my four books.

6
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:44.719
Also that if you want to train
in personal development in depth I tell you

7
00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:49.640
what has worked for me, which
is the personal development master' s degree

online from IPP You know the best
training that exists in this field. And

9
00:00:55.799 --> 00:01:00.439
if you' ve decided to start
changing your life, but you' re

10
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:04.760
not ready to do a master'
s degree yet, I recommend that you

11
00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:10.879
download the iBook for free twenty-
five habits for economic abundance, a system

12
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:14.760
with which you' re going to
improve your relationship with money and thus have

13
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:18.879
the lifestyle you want. I leave
you the link to my books, the

14
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:23.640
Mastre class of the personal development master
and Libook Free in the episode notes and

15
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:33.760
now we' re going to talk
about keeping your house tidy. Disorder is

16
00:01:34.040 --> 00:01:38.239
an accumulation of decisions we don'
t make, and those decisions we don

17
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:48.519
' t make end up piled up
on top of other papers books food,

18
00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:52.359
medicines, toys, clothes. The
list of things that end up messy,

19
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:57.840
that end up placed in any way
anywhere is endless. And that' s

20
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:02.599
not the problem. The problem is
that this disorder costs us time, costs

21
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:10.960
us money, costs us space and
even costs us our health. If you

22
00:02:12.039 --> 00:02:15.680
want to fix this, if you
want to get your house in order,

23
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:21.840
you have to change your mind first. As we have seen in other episodes,

24
00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:29.120
our brain is an adaptable tool.
When we learn something, we create

25
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:34.039
new neural pathways, we can reprogram
our brain. So, it' s

26
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:39.639
a process that you know we know
as neuroplasticity. Therefore, everyone can develop

27
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:47.879
better habits. Everyone can learn to
better organize their things. It is not

28
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:53.960
worth the typical excuse of saying that
you are like this, disorganized or that

29
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:59.479
you are your own system of order, that in your chaos there is an

30
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:01.080
order, etcetera. You' re
not like that, you' re not

31
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:07.599
messy. You just didn' t
want to make the effort to change your

32
00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:13.560
thinking. The first thing you have
to do is set targets. You need

33
00:03:13.680 --> 00:03:16.800
to know what you want to get
with that order. Maybe you want to

34
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:24.120
order your house so you can receive
more guests or maybe. You just have

35
00:03:24.240 --> 00:03:28.960
too much clothes in the closet and
you want to get rid of it or

36
00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:32.759
maybe, you need a system that
allows you to better manage all the paperwork,

37
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:38.000
mail, papers, etcetera. Whatever
it is. You need to know

38
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:43.199
what your goals are. You have
to know why you want an order at

39
00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:49.759
home and when you have those goals, you have to set a date and

40
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:54.800
you have to make sure those goals
are clear, specific, measurable and realistic.

41
00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:01.439
I repeat, because clear, specific
objectives are important. One goal wouldn

42
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:06.039
' t be to sort the house
that' s not specific, that'

43
00:04:06.039 --> 00:04:13.080
s not clear. They have to
be measurable and they have to be realistic

44
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:17.120
to and put them in writing.
Studies show that it' s 40 percent

45
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:23.920
more likely to get you to achieve
your goals. If you put them in

46
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:28.839
writing. The good thing about setting
goals you already know is that you save

47
00:04:28.839 --> 00:04:33.000
time, because you have your goals
clear and because you can prioritize what you

48
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.519
do every day. It' s
easier to say no to other things when

49
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:44.519
you have goals. The second thing
is to create a vision for every space

50
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:49.519
in your house. Every space in
your house should have a purpose. Imagine

51
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:56.040
what you want each space to bring, what its functions are, who will

52
00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:00.040
use it and, consequently, how
you need to take advantage of that space,

53
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:05.120
what furniture you need to put in
that space. For example, make

54
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:11.439
sure that there are no work-
related objects in your bedroom, no papers,

55
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:16.560
no laptops, because the purpose of
the bedroom is for you to rest,

56
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:19.920
it' s for you to relax, and obviously, this is changing.

57
00:05:19.959 --> 00:05:25.560
You' re not always going to
be right about the purpose of space

58
00:05:26.639 --> 00:05:30.199
to the first one, you might
have to change some things over time and

59
00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:36.120
absolutely nothing happens. If every space
in your house has a purpose, you

60
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:41.120
' re going to save time because
you know where everything is. You will

61
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:46.680
also save money, because when you
go to buy furniture, you will have

62
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:50.920
the specific purpose of that space in
your head. The third thing you can

63
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:58.519
do is sort the objects in each
of the spaces by functions, that is,

64
00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:01.759
that objects that have the same function
or a similar function, are saved

65
00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:06.439
in the same place. Keep it
together. And this can be as simple

66
00:06:06.519 --> 00:06:11.600
as putting pans with pans, for
example, or t- shirts with t

67
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:16.360
- shirts. This allows you to
see how many things you have to do

68
00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:23.759
the same function and when you have
that information, you start making better decisions

69
00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:28.279
about what you really need. Think
about how many short- sleeved shirts you

70
00:06:28.279 --> 00:06:33.319
really need. You need forty,
probably not, if you group the objects

71
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:39.399
together because of their function, you
save money because you don' t buy

72
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:43.360
extra things and save, especially energy, because you won' t have to

73
00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:47.560
go looking all over the house where
what you need is. The fourth thing

74
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:54.639
is to decide what is left and
what is left. There may be many

75
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:58.560
reasons for wanting to keep something.
It may be their sentimental value, for

76
00:06:58.560 --> 00:07:04.079
example, but there are times when
it is obvious that we have to get

77
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:08.800
rid of certain things. We have
to throw away everything that' s broken,

78
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:14.680
everything that' s expired, and
we should donate everything we have repeated

79
00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:18.160
or everything we don' t need. Don' t keep things just because

80
00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:23.800
they' ve given them to you
or because you' ve inherited them.

81
00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:30.920
Even those reasons are not enough to
keep one thing. Make sure that all

82
00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:35.600
the objects you keep in your house
fit the vision you have of each of

83
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:43.839
the spaces. If you get rid
of things you don' t need in

84
00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:48.839
the long run, you' re
saving energy, because you already know that

85
00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:51.199
physical disorder generates mental disorder. And
obviously, also if you get rid of

86
00:07:51.240 --> 00:07:58.040
things, what you' re going
to save is space. The fifth thing

87
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:03.120
would be to give each thing a
place, that each thing has its space

88
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:09.519
and that all that, all things
are returned to that space after they are

89
00:08:09.519 --> 00:08:16.079
used. So, it' s
impossible for something to get lost to try

90
00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:20.839
it and you' ll see how
easy it is if you always lose your

91
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:26.199
keys, set a point in your
house where those keys should be and concentrate

92
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.720
in the next two weeks until you
generate the habit. Concentrate on always putting

93
00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:33.159
them in that same place And I
tell you the same thing with sunglasses or

94
00:08:33.200 --> 00:08:41.200
with any other object that is often
lost to us. Also think about how

95
00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:45.919
often you use that object, the
things you use most often you have to

96
00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:52.320
have in easily accessible places. Things
you use less often, for example,

97
00:08:52.720 --> 00:08:56.679
Christmas ornaments, you can keep us
in places that are harder to reach.

98
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:03.960
If every object has its place.
What you' re doing is, on

99
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:09.120
the one hand, saving money because
you won' t have to go back

100
00:09:09.840 --> 00:09:13.679
to buying things you don' t
find and, on the other hand,

101
00:09:13.759 --> 00:09:18.840
you' ll save energy because you' re not going to run out looking

102
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:20.279
for the things you never find.
And the sixth and final recommendation is to

103
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:28.840
know, to finish the tasks.
Unfinished tasks distract us from creating mental disorder.

104
00:09:28.600 --> 00:09:33.840
Think, for example, when you
get a bill. That task of

105
00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:39.879
paying the bill isn' t complete
until you' ve paid it and filed

106
00:09:39.879 --> 00:09:43.720
it. If you leave it out
there without paying, then that bill is

107
00:09:43.759 --> 00:09:48.120
going to become messy. It'
s going to mix with other bills,

108
00:09:48.480 --> 00:09:50.080
with other papers. You don'
t know what you paid and what you

109
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:56.440
didn' t, etcetera. So, if you immediately pay an invoice for

110
00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:01.879
the marks as paid and file it, you save time and save yourself money.

111
00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:05.720
And the same thing happens with shopping
bags, for example, you unshape

112
00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:11.080
the bags after you make the purchase, save it all immediately. Or if

113
00:10:11.159 --> 00:10:16.559
you buy new clothes, finish the
task of buying new clothes by saving what

114
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:18.600
you bought and, perhaps, throwing
away what you don' t need,

115
00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:24.720
because it is being replaced by new
clothes. Or when you finish dinner or

116
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:31.279
eat wash the dishes and so on. It is about finishing tasks to prevent

117
00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:37.000
the disorder from accumulating. Knowing,
finishing homework on time is going to save

118
00:10:37.000 --> 00:10:41.759
you time, obviously, it'
s going to save you money and,

119
00:10:41.840 --> 00:10:46.679
above all, it' s going
to save you mental energy. So you

120
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:50.159
know that. If you want to
have a house and, therefore, a

121
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:54.519
more orderly life, set goals,
create a vision or a purpose for each

122
00:10:54.519 --> 00:10:58.679
space, classify the objects in each
of the spaces according to their function,

123
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:05.840
decide that they should stay and that
they should leave give a place to each

124
00:11:05.879 --> 00:11:11.879
thing and learn to finish your tasks. If you follow these principles so simple,

125
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:15.559
so easy, you' re going
to save space, you' re

126
00:11:15.559 --> 00:11:18.240
going to save time, you'
re going to save money and above all

127
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:22.840
you' re going to save energy. If you liked this episode, please
