Where do you like to start?

I do clean here and there, but not often enough to get my place looking nice. I want to get the big cleaning done so I’m just doing maintenance cleaning. My to do list is long and I get overwhelmed when trying to decide where to start. I know “just pick something”, but I also like being strategic, so I want to hear how other people work through things.

Do you pick one room and do nearly everything there? Do the same thing but in all of the rooms? Start with specific tasks? Do your “maintenance tasks” (dishes, laundry, taking out trash) first and then the bigger things? Move clutter out of sight and organize later? Do you rotate which room/task you focus on? Just pick whichever thing you think of first? Do the easiest thing or the hardest thing first?

I’m curious! I also have ADHD, depression, and anxiety, and while they’re mostly managed this is an area of my life where I see some symptoms of each come up.
