Choose one small change

You do not need a separate office or new equipment. Use a suitable place you already have.

  1. What goes away?

    For example: your laptop and work notes.

  2. Where do they go?

    For example: a basket beside the table. Keep work items safe and accessible for your next work period.

  3. What marks the change?

    For example: clear one place and set out a dinner plate.

Make the plan fit your home

Work thoughts may still show up. This is a practical cue, not a promise to switch them off. If work must remain available, choose one smaller area you can clear.

The workbook starts with this example, then gives you four fillable fields for your space, items, storage place and finishing action.
