For example, I 3d printed a box over my outlet to protect my cables from my bed pushing against it. In addition, my cables never fall to the floor so they're much easier to grab.

I get this advice, but I hate this advice. I have a million things to do that take just a couple minutes. I never know when to stop!

That's just it - getting started is the hurdle.

My rule of thumb for this is once I've begun cleaning in preparation for the other 4 ideas I have buzzing around, I write those down, finish one task and call it from there (this is usually after 2 to 5 mini-tasks that ends up with cleaning)
