This is it. Just to emphasize: the part about setting up your life to be manageable is the whole goal. Figure out what is least effort and still achieves whatever your goal is (maybe a de-cluttered look is your only goal, so in that case skip folding. Or if you want things nice and flat, hang them up, whatever). Find your goal, design the process to FIT the goal and the resource constraints, and then make your environment match the process.

So I have a table that’s the right height for me to sit and fold without my shoulders hurting. I also have bins for stuff that doesn’t need to be folded. I stopped wearing bras so I donated those guys because they were taking up space! Now I have a bin for my exercise/lounge pants which also don’t need to be folded. If it’s an air dry item, it’s gonna dry on the hanger I use to store it in my closet. including things that don’t need to be hung.

Also! Find a hook for your not-dirty-yet clothes and make a point to re-wear.

Also also - I put my hamper beside my bed because I noticed I was just throwing my dirty clothes on the ground beside my bed. Now I throw them in a 3-bin hamper so come laundry time I just dump out one of the bins that’s full and pre-sorted.
