I tried gratitude cleaning. Like most people, I hated to clean.  As a professional house cleaner, it was a job that put food on the table, but I didn't enjoy it at all. One day on a job when I was feeling punished by cleaning, it occurred to me that nobody was making me feel this way but myself.  Actually, other people did make me feel this way, but nobody was making me hate cleaning now (as an adult with rhyme and reason.)

And then I wondered what would happen if I was grateful for the stuff I was cleaning? WHAT? How does that work? So while I was cleaning I asked myself a series of questions like: Is this item I'm cleaning useful?  Does the item I'm cleaning save time?  Does having this item provide some kind of convenience?  Is life better because of this item I'm cleaning? YES!  Most of the time the answers were yes, yes, yes, and yes.  How cool is it that I get to clean these very useful items AND still make money doing it?

#GratitudeCleaning changed my life forever, and I hope it will change yours.
