Change my thinking
I have always said that I'm someone who likes routine. I like knowing what I'm doing when. I like knowing that things will get done, and everything has a time when it will get done. Except that doesn't happen. There are lots of things that I do have a routine around; getting ready in the morning for work, working out, cleaning up after dinner. But there are a lot of things that need to get done that I have no routine for. And some things that I have a routine for that sometimes the routine needs to change. So I have to change my way of thinking about some things. For one is laundry. I have it in my head that I don't like doing laundry and therefore will only devote one day a week to doing it. That is bullshit. I have a $5,000 set of washer and dryer that sits there and only works one day a week? Also, that very expensive washer has a delay cycle on it. I can put things in, set the delay to wash in the early morning hours, then get up and throw everything in the dryer
