Handle returns
A return often sits in the hallway for weeks because the brain cannot tell which step comes first. The visual support below splits the task into concrete decisions, from receipt to counter.

About this visual support
Handling a return is not physically heavy but executively expensive: locate the receipt, check how many days are left, find the original box, read the return policy, bring a card, drive the right route, speak to staff who might say no. Many small decisions with uncertain outcomes lead the brain to skip starting, and the parcel just stays put.
The visual support moves each decision from the head onto a card you can point at. Once the next step is already chosen (check receipt, pack in bag, place in hallway, take tomorrow), it stops being a fork in the road and becomes an action.
One practical tip: include a step called worst case – return refused. Write on the back what you do then (keep, resell, donate). When the worst outcome already has a plan, the threshold to even leave the house drops. If you want a reminder before the return window closes, you can try Routined free for fourteen days.
