NEAT in 10: Day 1

Welcome to the NEAT in 10! You'll get one short email each weekday for ten weekdays, with a simple task that brings clarity to a small corner of your home. Let's get it rolling with Day 1.

Acacia Drawer Organizers for the bathroom drawer

Today's task takes us to your go-to bathroom drawer. You know the one... it's set the tone for your whole routine for as long as you can remember. When it's cluttered with old products and things you rarely use, you start your day sifting through chaos. When it holds only what you need, your morning moves faster and feels calmer.

Your Go-To Bathroom Drawer

what you'll need

A trash bag or bin, a damp cloth for a quick wipe-down

what to do

1. Empty the entire drawer onto your counter. Seeing everything you own together helps you make more informed decisions.

2. Toss anything expired, dried out, or that you haven't touched in months. I'm concerned those sample products aren't being used.

3. Sort what remains into two piles: daily use and occasional use. Daily means you reach for it every single morning or night.

NEAT Tip: Toothbrush and toothpaste, deodorant, daily skincare, sunscreen, contact solution — anything that's genuinely part of your everyday routine are the only things that should live in this drawer.

4. Relocate occasional items to a different drawer or cabinet. This drawer is prime real estate so only your everyday essentials belong.

5. Wipe down the empty drawer, then arrange your daily items back inside. Group similar things together (oral care, skincare, etc.) and place what you reach for first toward the front.
