I need some ideas to keep me motivated to get the whole house clean. I'll clean a room or two and then just stop. It's so frustrating. I've tried blairing music while cleaning; it doesn't help. Any suggestions?
Answer
I hear you! I hate having to clean an entire house! The best way to handle this problem is to keep a routine, so that you won't have to spend an entire day or 2 cleaning.
1. When you step into a room, ask yourself this question: "What is it that is making this room such a mess?" Then take action to keep that problem in check EVERY DAY. In my kitchen, my problem was mainly dirty dishes. So I decided every nite after dinner to fill the dishwasher and run it. In the morning while getting my son ready for school, I put the dishes away. I made a new rule that dishes couldn't go in the sink anymore. They had to go straight into the dishwasher. I make sure I run it faithfully, every nite, whether its full or not. I make sure I empty it every morning. It takes 5 minutes. The rest is easy. When you see a box of cereal left on the counter, put it away right away. Throw out junk mail as soon as you get it, everything you need to keep can go into a nice basket to keep it contained in one spot.
2. Bedroom problem for me was clothes. Clean clothes weren't put away, means dirty clothes were on the floor. That makes a big mess. I made a basket for whites, a basket for colored clothes, and a common basket in the hallway for towels and sheets to go in. This way, everything is already sorted. When a basket is full, wash it. Then put it away right away, so you have a place to keep dirty clothes.
3. Bathroom problem for me was cosmetics all over the counter. I bought a basket to throw all my makeup stuff in, and one for my hair dryer, hair spray, etc. I bought a storage shelf to hold my baskets and it makes it easy to clean up the countertop.
I have a daily routine now, where I spend the first hour of my morning just doing the basics, and I can straighten up the entire house in that time. It's always clean, and it makes me and my family so much happier. Remember if you have kids to make them responsible for cleaning their own room. I make my son pick up his room in the morning before he catches the bus. I don't nag him about little stuff, like if his bed is made perfectly or not, as long as it is straightened up, and doesn't look like a bomb went off, I'm happy. He has recently gotten to the point where he will do it without me even reminding him to.
Another thing that keeps me motivated is burning some nice smelling candles. Nothing like a clean house that smells nice!
I hope this helps, the hour a day is well worth the serenity a clean house will bring! Good luck :)
