De-cluttering your home takes commitment and effort. Once you have managed to sort through the chaos and organised your possessions into their rightful places, how do you maintain a clutter-free environment long-term?

A Clean Sweep
Keep on top of your surroundings by clearing up as you go along. This might sound a simple tip but when you lead a busy lifestyle, it is easy to let things slip as you rush from one task to another. If you don’t have chance to clean as you go, try to clear up before you go to bed. Keep a basket in the lounge for scattered toys and fill up the dishwasher...

Working from home offers many benefits to successful mumpreneurs yet it is also a haven for distractions and temptations that ought to be avoided! Distractions can easily lower your productivity and cut your bottom line. With only you as the boss, it can be difficult to stay focused on the task in hand.

The Biscuit Bulge

Many mumpreneurs find they overindulge when working from home. It is all too easy to snack on biscuits and other unhealthy snacks. With the best intentions, you reach for the snack cupboard to save time rather than making a meal but this does nothing for your waistline!...
