Start by picking up all the clothes and start a load of laundry so that can be going while you do the rest. Next pick up all the papers and trash and food and toss it. Take it all the way outside, not just to the kitchen. Then take all the dishes to the kitchen. Now you should be left with just some stuff that needs to be put away, so do that and dust a little as you go, then vaccuum and change your sheets and you're done! 1 hour.
Yikes. Well focus on the really big area first. Clear the floors and make your bed first. You aren't looking for really clean at this point, so stuff it in the closet and under the bed.
Pick everything up first that is lying around and put it away. Wash any dirty clothes while you are cleaning. Dust. Vacuum. You can do this in 3 hours. What would save you time in the future is to put things back after you use them. "A place for everything and everything in it place" is good to live by.
When you have time, organize every drawer. You don't have to do every drawer at the same time. Then work on your closet. Organize your clothes and shoes by seasons. Get some storage containers or organizers to help you keep things neat. If you use containers you can't see into , like shoe boxes, label them so you don't have to open them every time you need something.
You'll be glad you did this as your room will stay clean and you will have more time for fun. Good luck.
Set your alarm clock to go off in 15 min´s time. All dirty clothes next to the bedroom door , along with any other thing that dose not belong, Never waste time taking thing´s back to their rightful places until you have finished the job you are doing. All clean clothes to the closet , hang up jeans trousers. top´s and jumpers folded. shoes from under the bed . Stop. once the alarm has gone off sit down and have a rest, normally I would say if you think you have had enough for the day, then stop but if you would rather carry on then do the same again set the clock for another 15, min´s and carry on this way. So as you have very little time to waste , carry on on. all paper´s that need to be fixed , put them all in a box , you can deal with them later , or even tomorrow. Just remember for the next time 15 min´s here and there is not a lot of time, but if you do your room this way , it will be nice and tidy all the time.
