I do 2 and 3 a lot. I thought I was just a bit vague.

I strongly endorse 1, which is almost a reflex for me. I know how important it is to me to have a clean shining sink (and I include in this my bathroom sink too.) I also endorse 3, which I plan to implement though I also have a do nothing routine of floating for an hour every two weeks. I used to do 2, at a different work location, and it is indeed very good for the soul.

Due to my positive experiences with 1 and 2, and my variant of 3, I think I'll try all of these. Starting today. Thanks JanetLand!

How do you deal with 1 when you have multiple other people in the household, and they aren't on board?

Physical punishment, I guess.

The minute you clean the sink you feel the effect. No joke. I just wash other people's stuff too.

I like #2 but don't have much use for #1, which is just going to make me end my day unhappily with housework. It just doesn't deliver that punch for me.
