This method also really helps when you're the "Why did I get up? What was I going to do?" Type.

You might forget why you got up, but you take the opportunity to do one of the things that needs doing.

The mantra of "no empty hands no empty trips" helped me; if I'm up from my desk I'll take any mugs to the kitchen, I'll grab a drink while in the kitchen, might as well do the bins, but if I'm doing the kitchen bins, I might as well do the whole lot and take them out. Then suddenly one of the bigger cleaning jobs is done, all because I wanted to get a drink.
