Cleaning Motivation

Have you ever looked at a pile of dishes in the sink and wanted to crawl back into bed? Or found yourself staring at the overflowing recycling bin thinking, why is my life such a mess? But what if we stopped seeing a clean house as a reflection of our worth and instead as a kindness to our future self? How to Keep House While Drowning will introduce you to six life-changing principles to revolutionise the way you approach domestic work, all without a single to-do list.

Reclaim your house and space. Gain motivation and restore your willpower. Reset your mind and change your habits. For this audiobook, resetting your mind is the action of taking a look at previous habits and lifestyle choices and deciding if these are ways you want to continue thinking. Take a moment to identify - and be okay acknowledging - existing and ingrained negative associations and mental habits. This could be something as easy as allowing one small adverse action to influence your entire day. Define your goals and set yourself up for success.

Your home is a bustling location in which everything in it requires attention (included the humans). Taking the time to plan and prep (though at times annoying) will make all the difference in the outcome. The key to sanity is to understand that you are not a machine and that you require downtime as well if you want it to get done. You will get it done (maybe, with a little help). Breathe, pace yourself, and attempt to implement new ways to take care of you, your home, and all the living things within.
