hopeful informative inspiring fast-paced

Short and straightforward, but a lot of the little ideas seem like they might work for me. Also, differentiating challenges with “motivation” from “task initiation” ✅

“If, however, you want clean clothes, you feel your life would be better with clean clothes, and you would like to be able to do the laundry you've been staring at for hours but just can't seem to make yourself do, that's not a lack of motivation. That is a problem with task initiation.”

This book hit me in my feels while reminding me that I am worth taking care of, even if it’s by me. K.C did a great job of gently suggesting strategies and taking away the morality around housekeeping. I will be suggesting this book to any and all of my friends.
