I did that once and the before/after dopamine is nice. But the downside is that looking back at the after photo and realising that it looks like shit again after 10 weeks is even more depressing. Pic of messy garage Pic of cleaner garage

what if you deleted the picture right after getting the dopamine

Good suggestion!

the key is deliberating a set place for everything, and putting it back until it becomes habit. it turns into a dopamine hit eventually.

if you find yourself not bothering to put some items back, they probably should be moved somewhere more convenient

It could be better, but it's still an improvement. I don't think you're giving yourself enough credit. Most people don't even start.
