3. Loose Ends Time (Paperwork).

 

The American author Gretchen Rubin once said:

Getting paperwork under control makes me feel more in control of my life in general.

 

One of the most familiar (and annoying. yeah, we said it..) household chores involves caring for 'loose ends.' Or, by their more familiar name - Paperwork.

Bills to pay, documents to arrange/send/Calls to make/home arrangements to take care of, etc.

Our tip concerning these household chores is to dedicate a specific/special time for their doing.

Although there may be a feeling of burden at first due to the obvious need to carry out these tasks, you will be surprised to hear that besides the automatic relief felt after paying bills, etc., many other benefits are also involved in doing those kinds of chores. Things like a sense of fulfillment/additional free time/preventing future problems with the entities to which the money is intended, and more.

 

 Pay your way to happiness!

 

 

 

A fundamental and super-relevant principle concerning the tasks mentioned in this paragraph and those above is awareness/positive thinking.

It's all about your awareness.

Considering household chores as such that will improve your home condition and, thus, your mental state - and you are in the right direction. And if you are planning on treating them as those that only make your life difficult, you will achieve the opposite result.

What you see is what you get - Indeed.

 

 

4. Small Repairs.

 

It's only natural that every house will need some minor repairs every now and then.

Things wear naturally, color fades, house plumbing rusts, etc.

Therefore, in contrast to the household chores mentioned above, which require the homeowner's immediate attention, the one in this paragraph is characterized by initiative. And we all know houses with fading paint for years! Only because the owner was too lazy to repaint.

If you won't fix things around your house occasionally, no one will.

 

Small repairs from time to time

 

 

Much evidence suggests that home improvement projects can boost your mood and make you happier.

Therefore, the last household chore we want to mention in this paragraph Is necessary repairs around your home.

As mentioned above, the magic phrase is 'awareness/positive thinking.'

Suppose you intend to consider household chores as being meant to make your life miserable and nothing more. In that case, your feelings towards them will be accordingly.

Try to think of them as a tool that also contains something about personal improvement, one which can make your home more pleasant to live in. In that case, those chores will significantly improve your mood, simultaneously with the well-known benefits of an organized and clean house.

 

By the way, a rather important tip for all sections above is the new scientific findings discovering that sharing household chores between spouses instead of each taking on different tasks separately can lead to a better relationship.

 Did somebody say 'Win-Win...?'
