1. Make the Bed - A freshly made bed makes the whole room seem more orderly, which will help you prevent papers and clothes pile up.
2. Manage Clutter - Whenever you leave a room, turn back and take a quick look. Anything that is not where it should be, pick up and put where it belongs. It will only take a few extra seconds but have a lasting effect.
3. Sort the Mail - Open, read, and sort the mail right when you bring it inside. Do this next to a trash can so you can throw out junk mail/trash. Then categorize the remaining mail into personal correspondence, bills, catalogues, and filing.
4. Clean as you Cook - Clean the pots and pans as you are done with them instead of letting them pile up in the sink. Put dishes in the dishwasher as soon as you are done as well. Then you won't have a full sink to deal with at a later date!
5. Wipe up Spills while they are Fresh - Regardless if its pasta sauce in the kitchen or foundation in the bathroom, most anything is faster and easier to remove it you clean it immediately.
6. Sweep the Kitchen Floor - Every evening when you are done cleaning up and done with dinner, give the kitchen floor a quick sweep. This will prevent residue from the day from building up, will make the floor clean for you in the morning, and will make the mopping much quicker.
