Make household cleaning a new habit

Sometimes when we finish tidying up and cleaning our home, we feel exhausted but satisfied with the result. We make it look like a new house, and we think about trying to keep it that way as much as possible, but without realizing it becomes a disaster, we get stressed and plan to clean again, and so on, we start over.

It is time to stop and think, what are we doing wrong? What can I do to keep my house for much longer?

If you have already managed to identify what you are doing wrong, you should get to work. The most advisable thing is that you adopt the habit of cleaning; you should reorganize your daily activities and include small actions in your routine.

1. Make the bed after waking up

The bed is one of the main furniture in the bedroom, and if it is messy, it gives a similar look to the whole room. After getting up, fix the bed and put the objects in their place.

Try to leave your room spotless before leaving it, so you can return to a place that generates tranquility.

2. Wash the dishes after using them

One of the tasks that are not so motivating to do is to wash the kitchen utensils used, especially when you do it with a sponge and soap.

The most recommended thing is that while cooking at the same time you wash the dishes you use, in this way you will avoid accumulating them. Also, take advantage of cleaning furniture and kitchen surfaces after preparing food. You will see how much time you save if you organize.

3. Fold and put the clothes in their places

When the clothes have been washed and dried, it is time to put away; the best thing you can do is fold the clothes and immediately put them away. Do not let the clothes of the week accumulate, because it will be more tedious to organize them.

4. Avoid hoarding things

Many times the thought “I can use it later” appears, but in reality, you have time to have it, and you do not give it the use for which it is made. This makes you accumulate and remove space for other objects that you do use.

Better recycle, donate, or discard; these actions must be taken into account if you want tidiness in your home.

5. Put things where they belong after use

You must respect the designated place for each object and avoid the “for a while” because you know that later this will generate even more mess, and you will have to invest time in organizing them.

6. Designate basic cleaning tasks for each member of your household

Housework is not only for moms but for the whole family. You can sit down with your family to organize a cleaning schedule, where they can designate responsibilities; so they can practice teamwork and save much more time to enjoy later.

7. Clean the refrigerator once a week

Take time to clean it once a week, avoid storing already opened foods or foods that generate odors, thus preventing the proliferation of bacteria.

8. Tidy up the house before going to bed

This is a good habit since the next day, and you will spend less time organizing. You can wake up with a more orderly and clean house. This way, you will reduce the stress generated by clutter and think about everything you should clean.

9. Don’t forget about the bathroom

It is a very used space in our home; it deserves attention in its cleaning. Clean it once a week to avoid the accumulation of germs and stains that are later difficult to remove. Avoid leaving clothes inside it and personal cleaning products occupying flat surfaces.

10. Perform a deeper cleaning twice a month

This action will be easier for you if you follow the previous recommendations. It will be less time spent as there won’t be a lot of dirt and mess, thanks to the cleaning habits you’ve adopted. You can use the time to clean more in-depth other areas of your house that need more dedication.
