The Importance of Appreciating House Cleaning

mmanhoff • December 3, 2012

House cleaning can be a huge undertaking, especially if your schedule is already tight. In order to stay motivated to keep your house clean, it’s important that you appreciate your clean house and whatever you’ve done to keep it that way!

If a maid service comes to your home, take a good look around when they have finished. Do you like the way your home looks? Does it make you feel good to know that your house is really clean for you and your family?

When you take a moment to appreciate what a clean house does for you, your mood, and your family and friends, it will be much easier to maintain that clean!

Small Steps for Maintaining Clean

  • Before bed, do a quick 15 minute pickup around the house, putting things back where they belong.
  • Don’t wait! If dishes need to be washed, the trash needs to be taken out, or a load of clothes needs to get started, do it as soon as you recognize the need.
  • Pay attention to the little details, like putting a fresh rag in the kitchen or replacing the roll of toilet paper.
  • If something spills, clean it up right away.
  • Get into a habit of putting things away when you’re finished, and encourage the rest of your family to do the same.

Remember to thank your family when they help out, and give yourself some praise for staying on top of things. When you know that your house is clean and you take the time to appreciate its cleanliness, then little steps like these will seem easier, and you’ll be enjoying that clean house all week long.
