    The 7 Deadly Sins of Housekeeping and How to Resolve Them

    The importance of keeping one’s home clean should be a given, but a lot of people still end up with a messy home with old dishes, piled-up laundry, and clutter all over the place. There are many reasons you may end up slacking in that department, but the worst housekeeping sins need to be addressed to make things easier. The last thing you want is to let things get so bad that you’ll need a more intensive decontamination service to make the space livable.

    So what are these reasons that simply get in the way of good housekeeping?

    Procrastination

    It’s very easy to say you’ll just do the cleaning later, especially if it’s just a simple task. But leaving these things for another day will inevitably lead to things piling up. When there’s more to do, you can end up feeling less motivated because it suddenly feels like there’s not enough time to accomplish everything. 

    This is why you have to simply get the cleaning done when needed and set a schedule to follow. If not, you can just end up in an unhealthy cycle.

    Not Putting Things Back in Their Place

    When you move things around or take things for use, make sure you put them back where they came from. It may seem like a troublesome task, but it’s easier than having to look for what you need later. Not returning things also leads to a tendency for things to get messier, as random items get strewn about and left in the way.

    Hoarding

    People have a tendency to accumulate a lot of junk. Spend some time decluttering, and you’ll find a lot of items you haven’t used or even thought about in years. You can throw out unusable things and give away items that you no longer need. Studies show that the average British adult is likely to own around £1,600 worth of unwanted goods.

    Disorganisation

    The effort it takes to organise everything is well worth it once you find how much neater it makes the place look. On top of that, you get to create a smoother system that works for you. An organised place will also be easier to clean.

    Misplaced Pride

    Either because of pride or shame, some people tend to just sweep things under the rug (both figuratively and literally.) This can lead to a pile of mess hidden in corners and a build-up of problems that could have easily been averted if one simply asked for help. 

    If you think you can’t tidy everything up on your own, feel free to ask a trusted family member or friend for help. Alternatively, you can even hire cleaning services. Trust that they have seen dirt and messy situations of every kind, so there’s no reason to feel ashamed about yours.

    Lazy Shortcuts

    Doing things half-heartedly and quickly for the sake of getting it done more often than not leads to a poor job that barely really achieves the goal. It may not be the most fun you’ll have, but try to give yourself motivation for cleaning properly. A simple reward may even do the trick.

    Hating Cleanup

    Again, it’s natural to feel averse to having to do all that work. However, it’s simply necessary to keep your house in good shape. List down what you like about your house and what you want to change, and use that as your inspiration to take care of it.

    Conclusion

    If you tend to exhibit any of the behaviours above, it’s time to take steps to change. Otherwise, you’ll just end up in an environment that doesn’t feel as welcoming and safe as a home is supposed to be. If you feel like you’re too busy or there’s already so much piled up stuff overwhelming you, you can always call up a cleaning company to get things done.
