Home Life Survival Guide

  Day 1: Sit down and create a light structure plan. Once it is made, follow it for one week. Understanding the levels of clean Weekly cleaning light Morning routine light Night routine light Week 2: Revise your plan, and correct it if you need to. Do this every week until you feel it fits your life. Continue with this plan for several weeks or months, until you feel comfortable in these habits. Do not move on to step 4 before you are ready. Give your brain time to get used to the routine. Once these routines feel fairly natural, and you complete them on most days (and fairly easy get back on track if you miss a day), you can move on to step 4. If you ever fall back, just maintain at the non negotiables, and work your way back up through the steps. This is normal, and part of the process for a lot of us.

If you could only wear one outfit the rest of your life, what is the one outfit this character would be drawn in? For me, this would be super wide leg jeans, a fitted lace cami, and sneakers. Gold necklace/earrings/bracelet. Curly hair around brastrap length. Small pouty lips and a very pointy nose. A s...

  Evaluate your day to day needs Optional: create a style uniform (if nothing in your closet brings you joy) Build your capsule Create a loose organisation in the closet Store away anything not in the capsule Tip: At all times, remember this is NOT a closet declutter. You can do that at a later time. If you see anything you want to throw away or donate, you can throw it in a bag. But take that bag to the donation center or container right away. And anything you are not sure about, just keep it and store away for later. Evaluate your needs over the course of the month Before you can build your capsule, you need to identify what you need on a day to day basis. I will give some suggestions based on my personal needs, but always adjust it based on your own situation. Any specific requirements for workwear (dresscodes, uniform, personal preference) Workout sessions per week How much you go out (formal/party wear) The current season/the next 3 months (shoes, jackets, raincoa...
