Sunday Reset: Clean Sound, Clean Space
Share
A Sunday reset isn’t just about a clean desk—it’s about a calm mind. When your space is tidy and your sound is clear, your whole week feels smoother: fewer distractions, fewer “why isn’t this working?” moments, and a more confident start on Monday.
This simple reset takes 20 minutes and covers two things that impact your mood fast:
-
Clean Space (visual calm)
-
Clean Sound (audio calm)
Part 1: Clean Space (10 minutes)
1) Clear the surface (2 minutes)
Grab a small box or tray and sweep off anything that doesn’t belong.
Don’t organize yet—just clear.
✅ Goal: your desk looks open again.
2) Reset your 3 zones (2 minutes)
-
Work Zone — laptop/keyboard/mouse
-
Tools Zone — hub, charger, adapters
-
Calm Zone — one simple item (plant/coaster/candle)
Zones reduce clutter because everything has a home.
3) Fix the top 3 cables (4 minutes)
Only fix the cables that ruin the vibe:
-
laptop charging cable
-
hub cable
-
mic/headphone cable
Route them along the edge with cable clips and bundle slack with Velcro ties.
✅ Rule: if a cable touches your hands, move it.
4) Quick wipe + refresh (2 minutes)
Wipe the “touch points”:
-
desk edge
-
keyboard area
-
mouse area
-
phone stand
This makes the desk feel instantly cleaner.
Part 2: Clean Sound (10 minutes)
5) Microphone placement check (2 minutes)
Even with simple gear, placement changes everything.
-
keep mic 6–10 inches from your mouth
-
aim it toward your mouth (not the keyboard)
-
if you hear popping, move it slightly off-center
✅ Distance beats price.
6) Reduce echo with one soft surface (3 minutes)
Pick just one:
-
close curtains
-
add a small rug
-
place a pillow/blanket nearby (off camera is fine)
✅ Clap test: if your clap “rings,” add softness.
7) Cable noise check (2 minutes)
Some audio problems come from messy cables:
-
cable rubbing on the desk
-
cable pulling the mic
-
loose connections
Fix:
-
clip the cable path
-
leave a little slack
-
reseat the plug firmly
8) 30-second audio test (3 minutes)
Before Monday:
-
record 10 seconds on your phone/laptop
-
listen for echo, volume, and pops
-
adjust mic distance slightly if needed
✅ This prevents Monday morning stress.
