Sometimes starting with making your bed or cleaning off bigger surfaces can help move things along more easily. The dent in the work you are doing will be more noticeable and will allow you to feel motivated while you are cleaning.

throw out unnecessary trash or items you don't use

hoarding items you never use and other trash will clutter up your room quickly and removing them from your room will de clutter and maybe allow you to see the floor of your bedroom.

Dance around! Make it your own little dance party
