Clean In The Morning:
Chores, ugh! It helps to put the most daunting tasks at the beginning of the day when I'm most recharged from a good nights' sleep and it's out of the way to enjoy the rest of the day.
Put A Time Limit On It:
Being a person who likes routine and schedules, I'll set a timer for one hour a day and clean. Because the house gets cleaned daily it makes it easier to give something a quick wipe down just to maintain it's shine and minimal messes to clean up.
Make A List:
I've created a spreadsheet for each room and will work my way through the list during my hour of cleaning remembering where I left off the day before. A spreadsheet of chores is kinda like the Google Maps of cleaning.
Put On Music:
I avoid distractions such as a favorite TV show since I get sucked into the show and won't put a lot of effort into cleaning. Instead I put on a favorite music channel, crank it up, and get to cleaning. It is a slight distraction when a song comes on that makes me wanna shake my ass I have to take a minute or two break.
Reward Yourself:
Everyone deserves a pat on the back for accomplishing the task at hand. Why not be the one to give it to yourself? Treat yourself to brunch (hello! eggs benedict!) or lounge around in the newly cleaned space.
