Could you pass the motivation please?

How do I motivate myself ?

I have NO idea. One of the many things I lack is motivating myself to do something I don't want to, like cleaning for example. I know how to clean but would rather do about a million other things.
I can make the house look presentable in half an our when there are people coming over, but I can't invite guests to our house every evening, we would all be tired of that after a while.

I have tried pretending there is going to be company but that never works either. I do love the feeling of a clean home and the satisfaction of accomplishing a lot in a day, its just tough to get going.

So what do I do? Work harder is the only answer I can come up with. Maybe I should get some good energetic music ( flight of the bumble bee anyone?) maybe that would work.
And just doing it. It seems that seems to be the answer to a lot of things, just do it and it will get better and become a habit and maybe even enjoyable.

  1. Music always helps me. Really energetic music. Also, a reason to get it finished quickly, like if I get this done, then I can have half an hour to read, or some other reward. Also, talking on the phone while doing boring repetitious jobs really helps. Try calling your mom, lol!
