Let’s be honest—decluttering can feel overwhelming. But what if you could make a real impact in just 10 minutes? That’s where the 10/10 Rule comes in: find 10 things to throw away and 10 things to donate—right now.
It’s simple, quick, and powerful.
Start with one room. Open a drawer, a cabinet, or your closet. Toss 10 items that are broken, expired, or just taking up space. Then, pick 10 gently used items—like clothes, shoes, or books—you can give to someone who actually needs them.
The beauty of the 10/10 Rule is that it breaks down a big task into something manageable. No need to clean and organize your entire house in one weekend—just focus on small wins that add up.
Plus, it clears more than just physical space. Decluttering reduces stress, helps you focus, and creates a calmer environment—especially when your home doubles as your work or creative space.
So next time you’re scrolling or waiting for dinner to cook, challenge yourself to a 10/10 round. You’ll feel lighter, more productive, and maybe even a little generous too.
