If you struggle to stay on track while doing chores, redditor mrsbono2u has a simple suggestion: "Clean one room at a time; otherwise you'll get too distracted." This one room rule is a favorite with professional cleaners, as it's one of the most efficient ways to tackle a home. Speaking of efficiency, this user added, "Don't put things down; put them away!" Also called the OHIO method (which stands for "only handle it once"), this tip is a game changer that can save tons of time and make for a less cluttered, more orderly space.
