29: Make Chores Easier by Shifting the Way You Think About Them
from Meant to Bloom: because burnout shouldn't be your baseline · host Brittni Clarkson
If you think it’s gonna suck, it’s probably gonna suck. The more you assign negative connotations to your house chores, the more you’re going to grow in hatred of them and continue to avoid them. This is something that’s been an ongoing challenge in my life, overcoming this hatred of cleaning and completing chores. “You don’t exist to serve your space, your space exists to serve you.” KC Davis | How To Keep House While Drowning If your home is your source of stress, rather than a refuge from the stress of the world - if you’re home has become an idol and keeping it clean has sucked all your time and energy and you’re placing the value of a clean home over the value of time spent with loved ones, yourself, or God himself - you’ve perverted the purpose of your home. Like Jesus in the temple, it’s time to start flipping (metaphorical) tables. Your home has a job, your home is meant to serve you, be a place of peace. When it’s become a stress, it’s time to realign and reassess how you’re spending your time while at home. I want to share with you the practical tips that have helped me to overcome my hatred of cleaning.
