How to Manage Your Home Without Losing Your Mind

I appreciate the candor, although it definitely started to sound repetitive (more than necessary to get the point across, imo). The benefit of listening to the audiobook, my husband overheard parts so it's had some influences there as well!

My overall takeaway from this book is a reminder of Atomic Habits power, with a clean house focus. Ive figured out some of these pieces on my own, and others bits I don't fully relate to as I don't have kids, but the reminder was good, and she definitely caught me with the project mindset. Even though functionally I've shifted my efforts, the idea of adjusting the mindset also helps.

I love a self help book delivered with a bit of humor. That being said I didn't really like the disparaging comments about being a "slob." Just because you are not good/don't naturally gravitate to being a neat freak doesn't make you a slob. Even though she was calling herself a slob in a self deprecating manner it could still be inferred that if you the reader also struggle with these things then you are also a slob. That being said there was some good advice here especially when it comes to cleaning and organizing your home is bite size chunks instead of trying to do everything all at once.

My biggest takeaway was - do the dishes. everyday. no exceptions.
