Tips For Cleaning Your House If You Are Lazy

Suppose you are lazy when it comes to cleaning. Or maybe cleaning is not your thing. But having a clean home is your thing. Or perhaps you don't like cleaning. I think many of us can relate to that. You have two options. You can hire someone to come in and clean for you, or find easier solutions for house cleaning.

20 Easy Ways You Can Keep Your House Clean

1. Start at the front door. A good doormat will keep dirt from entering your home. And removing your shoes when you enter the door is another way to stop the dirt from coming in.

2. Make your bed as soon as you get out of bed. It's a simple task that instantly gives the whole room a neat and organized look.

3. Don't drop or throw your clothes on the floor or the closest chair. Maybe you could put them in the laundry hamper?

4. Get into the habit of putting things away when you're done with them.

5. Set a timer and get moving. Make a game of it. How much can you accomplish in a given time frame? The clock is ticking.

6. Do one load of laundry each day. Don't let that laundry hamper overflow.

7. Invest in a Roomba. This smart vacuum does the job for you. Just turn it loose, sit back, and let the Roomba do its thing. It's like having a personal cleaning assistant, giving you more time to relax or do other tasks.

8. Don't like doing floors? Get yourself a Swifter Sweeper 2-1 mop. This versatile tool works for both dry and wet floors, making floor cleaning a breeze. With this efficient mop, you can quickly and

   effectively clean your floors, giving you a sense of productivity and accomplishment.

9. Dusting can be handled easily once again by Swifter.

10. Once a day, do a quick wipe-down of your bathroom sink and mirror, and clean up your toilet.

11. Turn on some upbeat music and let the music whisk you away. Add a few dance steps here and there, and before you know it, you've accomplished a bit of cleaning. And you have had some fun and exercise at the same time.

12. Multi-task when you can. If you're waiting for something to cook on the stove, why not empty the dishwasher or wash a load of clothes?

13. Stock up on cleaning supplies and keep them within easy reach.

14. Make cleaning the microwave easier by placing a bowl of water with a few drops of dishwashing soap, such as Dawn, and setting a timer for 5 minutes. Then, carefully remove the bowl of hot water and wipe down the microwave quickly.

15. Stop putting things off. If something needs cleaning, don't put it off until it becomes a major cleaning project. Please do it now!

16. If other people are living in the house, ask for their help. Sharing the cleaning responsibilities can make the tasks more manageable and less time-consuming for everyone.

17. Use small baskets for items that tend to accumulate, such as children's school papers and the mail that needs to be sorted. Keep the clutter contained.

18. One major thing that can improve the overall look and feel of your home is spending some time now and then decluttering.

19. Reward yourself. After all the hard work, you deserve a treat. Whether it's reading a book, savoring a glass of wine, or indulging in some chocolate, take a moment to appreciate your efforts. This act of self-appreciation can boost your motivation and make cleaning feel less like a chore.

20. Try making up a cleaning schedule to keep you on track. Don't wait until things are out of control to clean.
