Take Better Care Of Your Home, Self, And Stuff In Less Time

Are you sick of the amount of time it takes you to look after your home, yourself, and your stuff?

Time is valuable; it’s one of the only things we can’t buy and that we can’t ever get back. You should be making the most of the short time you have on the planet – not spending it cleaning, tidying, and doing things you don’t enjoy! Below you’ll find out how to take better care of your home, self, and stuff in less time:

Come Up With A Schedule Or Plan

You’ll waste a ton of time doing things that you don’t really want to do if you don’t have a schedule or plan. You’ll likely put things off until they absolutely have to be done, and you’ll end up having to do them all at once, maybe over the course of a day or two. That’s when it’ll really feel like a chore! By creating a schedule, you can make sure you’re making a little time for cleaning, tidying, and self care every day. You won’t put it off as you know exactly what you have to be doing and when. Consider it a non negotiable part of your life and you’ll feel so much better!

Hire Help And Don’t Be Ashamed

Time is the one thing that you can’t buy, and you won’t ever get back. If you value your time more than your money, don’t be ashamed to get help! Hire somebody to come and clean your house. Have a look for location for laundry services near me online. Figure out what you hate doing most or what takes you the longest and then pay for somebody else to do it. Just make sure you use that time that you’ve bought back wisely!

Get Your Family Involved

If you have a family, make sure you get them involved with the chores. Don’t do everything yourself, or they will get too used to being waited on hand and foot. Give them chores and responsibilities, no matter how small. Write them into your rota. You’ll be teaching them great lessons for the future!

Get To Grips With Time Management

Are you managing your time? As we mentioned, time is super valuable. Being able to manage your time well is key. See if you would benefit from a time sensitive to do list each day, and stick to the allocated time blocks. Just make sure you only include what’s necessary on your list, or you might end up feeling overwhelmed, and even demotivated if you don’t complete everything (even if it was unrealistic).

Keep In Mind What Really Matters

Don’t ever forget what really matters. If you have a pile full of washing up but you know your self care and mental health will really benefit from a hot bath, then go take one. If your kids are begging you to read with them but you have some other chore, it will wait. Never forget what is really important and your life will be so much happier!
