One of the most exciting things about surfing the Internet is how you can jump from one site to another almost instantaneously. It's also one reason why so many people hate cleaning their house -- they are tied down to drudgery for hours on end. Now, you can surf your house clean by cleaning it the way you surf.
Take it in Bits and Bytes
When we surf on the Internet, we can move quickly from one subject, one site, or one type of service to another, such as finance to music downloads and then back to news sites. Doing housework, on the contrary, usually demands that we stick to things, often for extended periods of time.
Go Ahead -- Jump from Room to Room
Instead, treat your housecleaning like you do surfing the Internet and go from one place to another. So, instead of staying in one room cleaning it from top to bottom, just do one job in the room, such as straightening. Or, do dusting. Then go to another room and dust or straighten. Just keep jumping from room to room doing the same job. The next day change sheets in each room of the house or vacuum. It’s like you’re on the Internet, jumping from site to site. But now, you’re cleaning the house, jumping from room to room.
Get Your Weekends Back
Now you won’t have to spend all day Saturday cleaning the house from top to bottom. Instead you can surf from one room to the next doing one chore for ten to fifteen minutes during the week and by the weekend you’ll have a clean house -- and you're weekend back! Now that’s a great way to get the house clean, satisfy any housekeeping ADD (attention deficit disorder) you might have, and not feel like you are shackled with housekeeping for hours on end.
