Finally, a housekeeping and organizational system developed for those of us who'd describe our current living situation as a “f*cking mess” that we're desperate to fix. Unf*ck Your Habitat is for anyone who has been left behind by traditional aspirational systems. The ones that ignore single people with full-time jobs; people without kids but living with roommates; and people with mental illnesses or physical limitations. Most organizational books are aimed at traditional homemakers, DIYers, and people who seem to have unimaginable amounts of free time. They assume we all iron our sheets, have linen napkins to match our table runners, and can keep plants alive for longer than a week. Basically, they ignore most of us living here in the real world. Interspersed with lists and challenges, this practical, no-nonsense advice relies on a 20/10 system (20 minutes of cleaning followed by a 10-minute break; no marathon cleaning allowed) to help you develop lifelong habits. It motivates you to embrace a new lifestyle in manageable sections so you can actually start applying the tactics as you progress. For everyone stuck between The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Adulting, this philosophy is decidedly more realistic than aspirational, but the goal is the same: not everyone will have a showcase of a home, but whatever your habitat, you deserve for it to bring you happiness, not stress.

Hier trifft Marie Kondo auf Thug Kitchen! Mit ihrem unterhaltsamen Ratgeber präsentiert Rachel Hoffman endlich eine Lösung für all jene, die sich von absoluter Perfektion verabschiedet haben und trotzdem nicht im eigenen Chaos versinken wollen. Menschen mit Vollzeitjobs, Kindern oder einem WG-Leben haben nun mal keine Zeit, Bettwäsche zu bügeln oder Kissen farblich aufeinander abzustimmen. Dank ihrer hocheffektiven 20/10-Regel (auf 20 Minuten Aufräumen folgen 10 Minuten Pause, Aufräum-Marathons sind nicht erlaubt!) kann jeder zu einem aufgeräumten und gemütlichen Zuhause kommen. So wird Aufräumen auch für Faule zur angenehmen Gewohnheit! "Hoffmans Herangehensweise zum Thema Aufräumen ist direkt, einfach ausführbar und der Inbegriff jeder gemäßigten Diät: Tu, was du kannst, wenn du es kannst und hör auf, dich ständig selbst zu quälen." - Elle
