I really need to clean a lot at my house.. lot's of things that haven't been done in months but I just can't find the motivation. I'd really like it clean so I can decorate for Christmas but all I do is a couple things a day and with having 2 kids it looks like I did nothing all day. I feel like I used to be able to make a list of like 10 things and get them all done in 1 day... How do you get motivated to clean all day? How do you keep going after doing a couple things?

My family and I are so motivated to clean the house because of this pandemic.

I also always lack the motivation to clean, but then one day I just move on and be satisfied.

Just get up and do it I guess. Once I start, I'll just clean whatever I have too. Don't sit down unless you're down though, the motivation will fly away.

I have asthma, so my “motivation” is based on how I feel.

@BrittneeD When I can no longer live with the dirt I have to clean it. I do not like a dirty home.

I'm one of those who don't clean too much because sometimes it can be troublesome, but my mother always taught me the importance of cleanliness, and my religion also says cleanliness is faith

I wish I knew because it is always a struggle for me. I think maybe before and after pics might help.

I am quite a neat freak so I like to clean most of the time.
