not a whole lot, but a lot of instances of small cleaning adds up to overall big cleaning and you’d be surprised at the relief you feel knowing at least one or two small things are taken care of

i used to hate cleaning or tidying up, but now i realize that’s it’s totally meditative and it tends to make me feel better about how i’m doing.

As a formerly extremely messy person who now is a neat freak - I feel like a lot of not-cleaning is bc it feels too overwhelming. Set a timer for 20 minutes and do what you can. You’ll be surprised how much you can get done in 20 minutes. Take a 10 min break and repeat if needed. I do a “closing shift” every night where I tidy up so that when I wake up I feel relaxed and not stressed by the mess. I think it’s easy to think of cleaning as a type of punishment or approach it from a place of shame, but trying to reframe it as “I deserve a nice & clean space, my space being tidy feels good” has been really helpful to me. Thinking about when you’re the messiest can help too - for me, when I get ready to go out it quickly approaches disaster, so I’ve been intentionally getting ready half an hour earlier so I have time to put my eight rejected discarded outfits back instead of throwing them on the floor.
Also having a regular hang out with friends at my place encourages me to stay on top of cleaning. Having it nice enough for people to drop in at any moment is heavenly!!! But it shouldn’t just be nice for guests, it should be nice for you too! Again, you deserve it!

extremely comforting to have a social media platform where the prevailing emotion is love and enthusiasm, wonderful to see everything my friends love and wonderful to express the love in my heart to like-minded souls

Especially the album Microphones in 2020. The kind of music that makes me feel like no matter what I do my art will be worth it all (which is on average true) and that it will always be a part of my life (alongside the sentiment that, just by surviving, I am creating art)
