He offered his 4 best tips to News 4 to help him prepare for the spring cleaning.
Number one, she says, makes a list. Ford Berry says you have to decide what your priorities are, then work on the list a little bit after another.
"You can do anything in one day, I think people burn very quickly, if they think they cleanse your house and get fully organized, it does not work that way," he said. "We have very busy lives and usually have only about ten minutes here or ten minutes, so set that the timer on your phone, for 10 minutes to organize, and when the timer is activated, remember. Tomorrow is a new day."
If you want to spend less time organizing tomorrow, it really helps to stay organized today. This is the Ford Berry number two. "Do not do that, the organization is a difficult task, in fact, look at it as a lifestyle that can make you spend more time and energy on things that really matter," he advised.
The most important thing, says Ford Berry, is to ask you two key questions about what's going on in your house: do I like that? Do I use it?
"That will really help you reduce what you really want to keep," said Ford Berry, as she gave her third best advice. "After I save that everything you own that you need stored a house, if you do not have enough space to store everything you have stored too much. It's a pretty simple formula. "
This raises the question, what do you do with anything you do not have a home for? The fourth tip from Ford Berry is to give a lot.
"Find organizations that are looking for what you have to offer and just get rid of it because the room is not at home, you can feel good, increase your energy, become energy. Feel more joy and peace at home, and that is, it's just a home you love, "he said.
