This market is about whether I will do specific chores in my home every day (*with a few exemptions) from today, 19 April 2025, until 31 May 2025. It serves as a commitment device to help me main a consistent cleaning routine while allowing some flexibility.
Rules:
Baseline Rule:
On days when I am at home, I must do chores for at least 25 minutes.
Excess Minutes Rule:
I collect excess minutes when doing chores for more than 25 minutes on a single day .
I can use excess minutes in increments of 30, to skip a day.
Exemptions:
If I am physically ill or injured in a way that significantly affects my ability to do chores, no rules apply.
If I do not spend the day at home, or in case of unforseen emergencies, or life events which affect my ability to fulfill these conditions, no rules apply.
Additional Notes:
"Specific chores" refers to activities that make my surroundings look better such as tidying, cleaning, making the bed, but also renovating, redecorating and doing the laundry. Other activities such as cooking or grocery shopping are not included.
My last attempt failed after 65 days.
I will not bet on this market.
Thank you for participating!
@NivlacM The definition is very broad. Don't underestimate it. I usually do more than 25 minutes and my home is usually still not spotlessly clean tidy
