Oh, I know that spiral all too well. Yes indeedy I do.
A lot of the time my problem is just getting started. Combine that with perfectionism, and there's a lot of not doing anything because I can't do it exactly the way it should be done. Or I don't have time to do ALL THE THINGS at once.
UFYH has helped me a lot with getting better about a lot of little things. It's NOT just a housework book. It's about starting to build better habits and it's about the idea that even a little bit of effort towards a goal is better than nothing. Just do eeeetttt!
