514: The Automatic Home with Roger Lipp
Part 2
Once we have created automations in our home to help our life run smoother, we need to have a system to maintain them. Last week we learned that the keys to an automated home are in the decisions and planning. We also learned there are so many ways to automate our home. Now, continuing the automatic home conversation, Kathi and Roger walk us through setting up routines for maintaining that smooth, peaceful life by thinking through:
- Which regular items can be set up on autoship
- Keeping running lists
- Scheduling things easily overlooked
- Setting reminders
- Developing routines around things
Tell us – which of these routines will you implement in your life? Let us know in the comments below!
The Clutter Free Home: Making Room for Your Life
When it comes to your home, peace is possible…
Longing for a place of peace from which you can love others well? The Clutter-Free Home is your room-by-room guide to decluttering, reclaiming, and celebrating every space of your home.
Let author Kathi Lipp (who once lived a life buried in clutter) walk you through each room of your house to create organizational zones that are not only functional and practical but create places of peace that reflect your personality. Kathi will help you tackle the four-step process of dedicate, decide, declutter and “do-your-thing” to reveal the home you’ve always dreamed of, and then transform it into a haven that reflects who you truly are meant to be.
