If it's really messy (like my closet), breaking it down into rooms may not be a small enough task lol.
I really break it down, like closet, pathway to closet, counters, bookshelves. That way, as I get each chunk done, I feel like I've accomplished SOMETHING, and seeing one completely organized space, no matter how small, really motivates me.
And one little piece of motivation. I read an article a few weeks ago about how the average person has about $2000 worth of unused, unwanted stuff that could be easily sold.
I sorted through clothes/bags/old collectibles...and made over $6,000, which really helped since I was car shopping at the time (sell clothes at Platos Closet or Ebay, for instance).
When I started looking at organizing as a money-making activity, cleaning became much more enjoyable
