If you get stressed and overwhelmed, which distracts you from being productive, why not spend 10 minutes every morning addressing those unread emails that are overflowing in your inbox? Also unsubscribe from junk emails or daily newsletters that you don't need. 

This will save a lot of time in the future!

3. Create an emergency kit

Do you have an emergency kit? It's easier to put together than you think! In fact, you probably have everything that you need already in the house!

Do you have a big shopping bag or shoulder bag? Fill the bag with some bottles and granola bars. Add a candle and some matches to it or a flashlight and you'll be prepared for a power outage. Even a wad of cash could be a good idea!

You don't need to be prepared for the Apocalypse but it's good to be a little bit prepared. 

4. Wipe the windows clean

You know what will perk up any dark day? Clean windows!

6. Create a special nook

There are some places in the house that could use some extra zing. Add an extra storage unit where books and art can be stored, adding a special and cozy touch to your interior design.

7. Remove dust and hairs

Do you have this problem? Your furniture is covered in hair from your pets, which means that every time you walk past the chair you get hair on your clothes!

If the thought of mold in the shower keeps you awake at night, then make sure you regularly wash your shower curtain. This will ensure that your bathroom is pristine!

9. Clean all the screens in the house

A grimy computer screen can ruin the whole look and feel of a study or living area. It also means that you'll be squinting at your spreadsheets, photos or emails!

Give your computer screen, TV screen and even phone screen a regular clean for peace of mind!

10. Buy flowers

Even a cheap bunch of flowers can make your room feel refreshing and more beautiful. And we all deserve an occasional treat!
