🍽️ Clear a Patch of the Counter

A little space can bring big relief. Let’s clear just one patch of your kitchen counter together.

Kitchen counters are magnets for everything—mail, dishes, shopping bags, empty jars, and more. It can be overwhelming to even look at them. That’s why this task is about picking one small section—not the whole thing.

Choose one spot—near the kettle, beside the toaster, or just a 30cm square space. Don’t worry about organizing. Just remove the obvious clutter: rubbish, recycling, old post, dirty dishes.

You’re not expected to clean or scrub, unless you feel motivated. The win here is visual space: one clean, clear spot to breathe.

This kind of progress snowballs. You’ll see it. You’ll feel it. And tomorrow, you can choose to do more—or not. Today, one patch is enough.

🍽️ Simple Steps to Clear a Patch of the Counter

1. Choose a Spot: Just one small section—don’t go big.
2. Remove Obvious Clutter: Old dishes, wrappers, flyers, anything out of place.
3. Wipe it Down (Optional): Only if you feel up to it. Just seeing the surface is a win.
4. Pause: Take in the calm of your clear patch. That’s your progress.
