We call them chores for a reason. Cleaning is an unappealing task to do and yet you have to do it. Let’s face it. Cleaning is not fun unless you’re someone born with a knack for doing it. Unfortunately, you have to clean because dirt is not something that comes occasionally.Dust will accumulate. Stains and grease will harden, making it tougher to remove. And your floors will get sticky. Yuck!

To make it a little less like a chore and more of a routine, here are a few things you can do to keep you motivated to clean.

How to Keep Motivated When Cleaning

1. Play some music

For example:

• First week – Living Room
• Second week – Kitchen
• Third week – Bathroom
• Fourth week – Bedroom
  

4. Find a trigger

Researchers found that you can trick your brain to do a certain task by doing another task called a “trigger.” What it means is that if you always wash the dishes after you watch a 6pm-7pm show, it will become a habit. Find yourself a trigger that will automatically tell your brain that it’s time to clean.
