And our housework needs a framework just as much as anything else we do or use. We need to have an underlying structure that gives shape to our days and support to our sanity.

Without a framework, we’re sloppy, floppy, and choppy. We do this and that, here and there, and never feel like we’re getting anywhere – because we’re not.

So push pause.

Take some time out of the random peppering of chores and give yourself a framework that will make consistency possible.

Hang your habits on hooks.

 Your habits will be more successful and stick sooner if you hang them on hooks already in your day.

Think in threes.

So make it easier to get started by narrowing down your focus to three things.

Move into maintenance mode.

Maintenance and “getting ahead” are two entirely different modes. Catching up and getting ahead is extra. Maintenance is daily, without fail, repetition.
