Try this. It works.

Every time you are going to leave a room, look around for something you can do to make it better before you go. Typically, I take an item that needs to go to another room with me (i.e. if there are shoes in the living room, and I'm walking to the bedroom, the shoes take a little field trip with me).

It's amazing how much you can clean up/throw out/reorganize with this method...
