Benefits of habit “Make your bed”

✓ Helps keep the bedroom tidy
✓ Saves time for the evening
✓ Keeps dust away from bedsheets

First step:

✓ Once a week

Progress:

1. Today, as soon as you wake up, make your bed. Do this once this week
2. Next week, make your bed 2 days in a row
3. Keep adding days until you make you always make your bed

Helpful tips to make it a habit:

✓ 2 extra minutes. That’s all you need every morning to make the bed. You will even do this at the same time, so as long as you remember to do it, it will become a habit
✓ Trigger your mind with this app. Together with your alarm clock, set a reminder to go off so you wouldn’t skip making the bed
✓ Reward yourself. Once you’ve gone a full month of making your bed every day, treat yourself to a nice hotel or resort stay, where your bed will be made for you. Enjoy it to the fullest, but remember to come back to it as well!
✓ Celebrate small victories. Every time you perform this habit, congratulate yourself! Say “I’m awesome” or “I’m so cool” out loud and with a smile on your face.

Tips for beginners:

✓ Start by fluffing up the pillows. Then straighten the linens if they got wrinkled during the night. Shake out the bedsheets and lie them over the bed without folding them. Have a cover ready and put it over the bedsheets and pillows. Throw all additional pillows on top.
✓ It’s very easy, but the more often you will do it, the faster you will get and 2 minutes will melt to 30 seconds. Practice makes perfect!
