Every home has one. Mine now has a rule: if it goes in twice without being used, it leaves.

Three things I kept in case. In case never came, and the shelf was doing more work than the objects.

Same method in all three rooms: empty one surface completely, then decide what earns its way back.

Ilé kọ̀ọ̀kan ní ọ̀kan. Wọn kò ṣí tèmi dáadáa fún ọdún méjì, mo sì ti sọ̀rọ̀ nípa rẹ̀.

Ìdajì ohun tí àwọn ènìyàn ń pè ní ṣíṣe ọ̀ṣọ́ ni gbígbé ohun tí o ti ní tẹ́lẹ̀ ní mítà mẹ́ta sí apá òsì.

Not productive, not aesthetic. Just an hour where nothing is being optimised, which is the point.

I moved one chair to the light and stopped needing a morning routine. That was the whole change.
