How to get motivated to clean after ignoring the mess for TOO LONG!

 

Getting motivated to clean after a long period of mess can be challenging, but breaking it down can make it manageable:

1. Start Small

•Choose one small area (like a single drawer or one corner) to clean first.

•Success in a small task can create momentum.

2. Set a Timer

•Try the 10-minute rule: clean for just 10 minutes. Often, you’ll continue after starting.

3. Make It Fun

•Play your favorite music or podcast.

•Treat it like a workout and track your progress.

4. Create a Reward System

•Reward yourself with something you enjoy (like a snack or show) after cleaning a certain area.

5. Invite Accountability

•Plan to have a friend over. The thought of someone else seeing the space can motivate you to tidy up.

6. Visualize the Outcome

•Picture how the room will look once it’s clean. This mental image can inspire action.

7. Declutter First

•Focus on throwing away or donating unused items. Decluttering makes the cleaning process easier.

8. Break Tasks into Lists

•Write down each cleaning task. Crossing off items gives a sense of accomplishment.

9. Avoid Perfectionism

•Don’t aim for spotless; focus on improvement. Progress over perfection!
