How to change your attitude to home affairs, so that life does not become routine

Life bored, enrages, annoying. Who did not experience such emotions? And still returned to the pots and dirty laundry - life is eternal. So, we need to change our attitude to it so that it becomes more comfortable. Here are some tips on how to establish household affairs and not go insane at the same time from routine and boredom. Council 1. Philosophically relate to male untidiness and the partner's reluctance to maintain a house in exemplary order
So they are created, these men. For example, they say, experts say, not that the weaker, but more loyal to the sharp smells sense of smell. Intolerable, in our opinion (or scent), a man gets irritated much less (or even invigorates). That's why we have a collection of socks under the couch that makes you angry, and her partner does not notice, and does not feel. At the genetic level, the inherent habit of taking care primarily of the safety of oneself and the family (after all, the insidious enemy or predator can sneak up at any moment) requires that everything necessary that can be used for this is always at hand, and not somewhere there is laid out shelves. So, for a partner, the claim about wrong things is just a petty nit-pick. If you take this into consideration, and every dirty T-shirt thrown on the back of the chair, and not in the laundry basket, is not regarded as another sabotage directed against you personally and order in the house, then a weighty percentage of domestic irritation will be avoided. But there are also representatives of the stronger sex who wash their plates, clean their shoes, wash their socks ?! Yes, such men meet. Usually in large cities. According to some reports, their numbers even grow and already amount to ... a little less than 1%.

Tip 2. Get rid of the misconception that you sit with your husband around your neck, if you are a housewife
According to experts, washing (even if there is a machine, there are always things to be hand-rolled) equates to the work of the tractor operator, ironing to the work of the mason. Holding on to your home, you have to alternately become a nanny, a cook, a dishwasher, a waitress, a laundress, a sister-nurse, a maid, a designer ... And even master masculine specialties like a plumbing technician (a tap - it is necessary to fix it in emergency mode) or a longshoreman A stroller with a child to raise to the 5 th floor without an elevator - the task is not easy). And all for free, you can say, for food. By the way, American specialists found out: if you compile an estimate of the work performed by a woman during the day and accrue a fee for each item at average tariffs, then her monthly earnings will exceed the earnings of her husband at 2-3 times. If we translate into our money, the housewife does not bring, but keeps for the family monthly 70-80 thousand rubles. And this can be checked by inviting a nurse to a sick child, a cook for cooking lunches and dinners, a cleaner, a tutor who will help the children with lessons, a chauffeur, to take him to school and to classes in circles, etc. Such arithmetic. Engage her with her husband, and the myth of "sitting" at home while he works, will be scattered once and for all.

Tip 3. Involve households in active participation in solving domestic problems
Let's just say, historically, men are not sharpened for household chores. For thousands of years they have solved completely different tasks: they fought, hunted, plowed, mowed ... They are, of course, glad that the scientific and technological revolution freed them from exhausting hard physical work, but to accept that now it is necessary to rub carrots and scrub tiles and bathroom, they are very hard. "It's not a man's business." Therefore, they will have to be forced somehow or other to persuade, persuade, push, order - to each their own approach. But we must understand that the task is not to force the partner to engage in the economy instead of himself, but to divide the duties so that to manage the farming together. Only if this load is divided in half, you will feel that the discomfort associated with solving boring everyday problems becomes weaker. In addition, it is established: voluntary joint household work (Sunday cleaning or cooking dinner) works to strengthen the couple and can even deliver genuine pleasure.

Council 4. To turn economic affairs out of obligation into fun
And with a high coefficient of utility! In fact, doing homework with a sense of tired doom or fun, gambling - the choice is always ours. For example, try playing a game called "general cleaning". When a wife in a bikini under a deafening rhythmic music vacuums, the husband does not flinch under any pretext from home and will not indifferently lie on the couch. Of course, if you clean the apartment with children, the erotic concept of the event is not good. But the elements of fun, creativity, competition are quite acceptable. Moreover, they will help to turn the routine preparation of lunch or cleanliness into an exciting culinary duel or the merry holiday of Moidodyr. It is very important to present correctly and name the forthcoming work on the house. The words "washing," "ironing," "cleaning," "cooking" in themselves make a longing. Appeals: "You give 100 pel'menis!" or "Culinary party." Everyone is invited! " sound much more optimistic and more enticing. In this really want to participate. Without a doubt, "Disco in the style of the 90's" will collect more volunteer energetic assistants than a boring wander with a desperately roaring vacuum cleaner around the apartment.

Tip 5. Convince yourself that domestic work is useful
Many of us like to mention that household chores are a thankless task, they nullify, devalue their efforts and themselves upset themselves. But the household with pleasure weave deliciously prepared dishes for a beautifully served table ... Perhaps the efforts of the hostess and remain off-screen, but the result is something you can not notice. In addition, housekeeping, as scientists have found, also strengthens health. According to a study conducted by the Scottish Cancer Center, which involved 300,000 women from nine European countries for 7 years, it was found that daily cleaning reduces the risk of breast cancer.

Council 6. To abolish perfectionism
The excessively zealous zeal to keep the house in exemplary order and turn it into a temple of purity ejects from it the comfort and charm that distinguish a state-owned alien home from its warm one. Some landladies are so exhausted and rubbed that all their relatives are afraid to violate the cleanliness and order in the apartment, preferring to stay in school and at work. So for whom do they even try, if the native people do not carry their feet home? Perfection, of course, there is no limit. But everyday maximalism does not lead to success and does not contribute to mental balance. No matter how frantic the struggle for order in the house, the perfectionist mistress will never feel full satisfaction from the result. She will always feel that the family does not appreciate her efforts and does not protect cleanliness. We must finally allow ourselves to relax ...

Specialists have long established that children who grew up under the hood, that is, in a sterile environment, are more susceptible to the effects of harmful microbes. And the pursuit of the ideal in most cases turns into disappointment, deadly fatigue, loss of faith in oneself and undermining the nervous system.

Council 7. Optimize economic processes
If you do not neglect the achievements of science, then life becomes less burdensome and more exciting. And yet, in order not to press life, it is necessary to systematize it, correctly distribute it: strength and time. And they are in inversely proportional dependence - the more time we spend on some kind of household operation, the less power remains on other household matters. One of the tricks that saves time is the systematization of property.

If every thing has its place (washing powder under the bathroom, chargers for phones in the upper drawer of the chest of drawers), then the search for the necessary takes a minimum of time. Another way to save time is not to do what you can not do. For example, do not crawl all weekend with a brush on the carpet, and hand it in dry clean. If you remove all unnecessary things from your home, much less time will be spent on farming.
