Pick Up After Yourself

What separates two people most profoundly is a different sense and degree of cleanliness.
Are yesterday's clothes draped across the treadmill? Has the mail accumulated on the credenza so long that the pizza coupons have expired?
When frequently needed items aren't put away properly, chances are you'll spend countless minutes of your life frantically searching for them when you're ready to walk out the door. Even worse, if your spouse takes the responsibility of picking up after you, they may resent the implication that your time is intrinsically more valuable. Clean up your own clutter, and you're likely to find more minutes in your day--and a more cheerful spouse.
If you use it, put it away.
