Tackle One Room At a Time

 

Setting small, attainable goals will help to keep you motivated and on track. By working on one room at a time, you will be able to accomplish more progress in a short amount of time. Biting off more than you can chew is a common mistake among spring cleaners with a tendency for defeat. Stay ahead of the clutter and reach your goal by working on small areas and celebrating your successes.

Spring Cleaning Tips

Make a List of Tasks for Each Room – Then Prioritize!

 

The truth is, spring cleaning motivation comes in waves and the process typically requires more than one day. At times, when you’re already mid-way through a room, cleaning will get overwhelming. Eliminate those daunting feelings by making a list and staying on track. Take brief moments to re-visit your list when you are feeling overwhelmed and cross off the items you have completed for a sense of accomplishment.

Take A Step Back and Stay Positive

 

As you move from room to room, the clutter may start to feel as though it is following you. – it is not.

 

Every small step counts and leads you closer to accomplishing your goal. By taking a moment to step back and focusing on your completed rooms (or area within a room), you are able to revel in the satisfaction of your accomplishments. Surges of positivity and determination for attaining your goals will flood over you and provide a sense of relief to the chaos. This act gives your body a rest while reigniting the mental drive required to complete the rest of your project. Stay positive and remind yourself of the gratitude that comes along with your success!

Open the Windows to Let Some Air and Light In!

 

The feeling of being couped up during your cleaning frenzy is expected. However, you can help to alleviate those feelings by opening up a few windows and doors throughout your home. This will help to provide much needed airflow and a sense of calm to your spring cleaning project.

Rock out to your favorite music!

 

A house is not a home without music – especially while cleaning.

 

Locate your favorite tunes, hit play and lets the good times roll. Music will help to pump up your energy and make the time fly by. Go ahead and dance when no one is watching.   😉
