When he analyzed what was 'just enough', he was able to devise systems and hacks that brought order to his whole life. How to identify what really matters both emotionally and physically to you and the people who share your space. The goal is not 'always tidy' but 'easily tidied' and other principles for lifting some of the mental and physical burdens we feel when managing our homes. Tips for making a 'one-area-a-weekday' cleaning schedule and other simple routines that complement household rhythms and eliminate intensive weekend cleaning.
