One of my high school friends was from a very poor family. Her mom was divorced and worked in a factory. They didn’t have a hot water heater. They had to boil water to bathe and clean everything. Their home was immaculately clean, tidy and pretty (with simple things). That made a great impression on me. I saw gratitude and proper, healthy pride displayed by them. I have never forgot that.
Amy, as a mother of 28 and 26-year-old girls, I think it’s really important that we gently encourage one another to keep on keeping on. Especially as believers… Let us not grow weary in doing good for at the proper time we will receive a harvest, if we do not give up… Also on a much lighter note, could you please tell me how you put those really cool waves in your hair… This sounds like such a 2018 question, but my hair is finally gotten longer and I want to try those bigger waves…❤
Very good helpful tips 😊I have a friend who sets the alarm on her phone for every day at 3:16 it's her reminder to stop and thank God for her day, and also became a way to share with co-workers who asked why her phone went off everyday at that time its a win win 🤗
Yup, great points! I always try to reset the house every night, especially in the kitchen. It also helps to have a place for everything. When my husband and I moved to our new apartment after marriage I took my time to unpack and declutter to ensure that every item had it’s own place to go. That’s a major help.
Best productivity tip ever is an ADHD task paralysis hack that has been a game changer not only for me, but for my non-ADHD friends/family as well. And that is to wear sneakers when cleaning or when u need to be productive. I have a special pair of house sneakers that I ONLY wear inside my home. As soon as I put them on, I immediately feel ready to get things done. Plus has the added benefit of support so my feet/legs/back don’t hurt at the end of the day.
I’ve learned to love washing dishes by hand at night. I turn on some guitar music, turn down the lights and really enjoying the motion of washing the cares of the day away. I think of homemaking as blessing my family. My home has been entrusted to my care. As long as I keep that in mind it always help me stay motivated.
As a mom of adult children, I've been homemaking for many years and I can say that all of your tips and spot on. I do them myself! I piggy-back tasks as a habit, and consolidate my trips. Organization is key!
And I like your suggestion about pairing a chore you hate with something you love! I will listen to a podcast next time I clean my bathroom tub. I'm sure that will help. Thank you!❤
Thank you for this word Amy. So often I wish I could be a homemaker again. But I have to work outside the home. I do like my job of caring for little babies. But still I needed the reminder to think, instead of " I have to go to work and care for babies", say "I Get to go to work and care for precious babies." God has given me peace about this this past Sunday at church. So, I need to remember not to replace the peace God gave me with anxiety. Instead, I need to say to anxiety, " No God gave me peace over my work, I will focus on Jesus and the peace he gave me." ❤ It helped me yesterday. And your words of wisdom will help me today. " Peace I give to you, peace I leave you. I do not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled..."John 14:27
I love the idea of having a short list of non-negotiables! Personally, I get way more done because I feel less pressure knowing that those simple (but important) things will always just be out of the way... it's freeing!!
Guess what I did today while letting my coffee drip? Yes, I put in a load of laundry!! Thank you for the great tips, they made so much sense to me and helped me put things in perspective, not overwhelmed. Love your channel and keep smiling ❤
Hi Amy I just wanted to say you inspire me spiritually to do better! I now wake up early to pray and read my Bible I guess what I’m trying to say i learned through you that is possible to make time for God and make him priority in my life even in our crazy life and schedules Keep being who you are ! Thank you Amy God Bless You🎚️🕊️
As the mom of 2 adults now and 3 grandkids that I watch, these tips are spot on !!!! Changing how you look at things can be a game changer, I especially loved the doing laundry one !
Thank you for the reminder to find ways every day to practice gratitude. So often I feel that we take things for granted or that we just overlook things or fall into a negative mindset. As believers and Christ followers we should find ways to be thankful and grateful. I am 58 (I will turn 59 in mid-January) and my husband is 59 (he will turn 60 in early April). I do not have kids of my own and my husband has a son who just turned 25 and who is attending the Delta Propel Flight Training Program in Vero Beach, Florida. So we don't naturally produce a lot of laundry (in comparison to someone who has small kids or teenagers), but I still do at least a couple of small loads of laundry on a daily basis. Personally I do not own a lot of clothes and so it is essential for me to keep what I have clean. I also go down and walk on the treadmill pretty much on a daily basis, so I don't like those sweaty clothes sitting in the laundry bins. I try to pair my laundry with at least one deeper cleaning task daily. We live in an 892 square foot, 1 bedroom + den apartment, so it is not a huge amount of space. But I have found that if I can break up my cleaning chores daily and rotate them on a daily basis, it makes things a lot easier for me and doesn't become so mentally daunting as if I instead would choose to just let things pile up and then I am needing to clean the entire apartment from top to bottom. It is easier for me to instead put my load of laundry in and then one day go and deep clean the bathroom and then one day strip the bedding and do an extra load of laundry and then vacuum the bedroom carpet and do any dusting in that room, etc.
When my boys were growing up, it seemed like there were so many books written to help with homemaking. Maybe not so now. But I found keeping a rhythm for tasks was empowering. Mondays always kicked off laundry, even if it means one load in the washer before breakfast. And I always folded it warm from the dryer. Instead of piling it in a basket for later, fold it warm into the basket and send the basket to the drawers immediately. I see so many moms doing it all, convinced its easier that way. But I used to put daily post it notes on my boys bedroom doors with 2 or 3 tasks. Their allowances depended on doing these. They are all good house keeping help as married men now. Finally, love your home This is the refuge your family needs from the world outside. Beauty, gentle conversation, much physical touch, and faith in the God who loves us.
Amy I’ve been following your channel for a while and I just love your videos! Your health journey and transformation ! It give me encouragement to keep bettering myself! Thank you so much!!!
Great tips! I agree, having a grateful heart and attitude makes all the difference. Thankful to be a homemaker and mom. I'm serving Jesus while doing so. We're so blessed!
This was such a blessing and so practical! I never even thought to have a cleaner come 1-2 times a year! My thinking has always been that you’d get a regular cleaner which I’d never be able to spend the money on. Thank you so much for these tips! 🥰
Amy….great video tips. I am a retired woman who stays home and loves to have a nice clean home to live in. My husband still works but he tells me all the time he enjoys coming home to a nice clean home and dinner on the table. These tips you mentioned are great to start if you feel stuck. Love your videos and the great example you are to those who watch.
Some great ideas, Amy! I'm 70, but there's always ways to grow & improve, so thx! Plz keep the life ideas coming...ideas for any & all areas of life! Thx again!❤
Thank you for this beautiful boost of motivation on a Monday morning ! I love your inspiring and gratitude of for my mind of renewing my heart and mind ! Love and Prayers! Thank you dear sweet friend and sister for this beautiful Monday ! I love your beautiful home! 😇♥️
Thanks so much for the great advice. You are absolutely glowing. Looking beautiful as always. Your home is so peaceful and cozy. God Bless your Beautiful family.
Great motivation. We have a great housekeeper that comes every Friday. It changed my life when I did this for myself. Amy you look absolutely gorgeous! Your skin is just glowing.
Making sure my dishes are all washed and put away is what I try to do every evening before bed. Sometimes I don’t get to it and when I get up it’s the first thing I notice..so that habit is a good one! Your videos are always encouraging. You are such a sweet smiling face! ❤️
Amy you are absolutely my favorite you tuber, such great advice...I am going to adopt the gratitude suggestion. Just wondering if you live near your mom? I would love to meet the lady that raised such a bedsheets daughter, a Q &A would be fun to see with you both or a shopping spree with you. Just a thought, think it would be so fun 😊not bedsheets, crazy spellcheck...beautiful daughter and smart daughter
Thank you so much for this as a mom of a 23 year old a 20 year old and 17 year old things can get so mundane and out of control. I work from home and work in the home so it gets tough. I do find when I find gratitude and say a small prayer and light a candle it helps. When I can’t stand it and get really upset then I go on amazon and shop and thats ok for me. I do whatever I need to make it work. I am thinking of getting help at least the bathrooms maybe that will help since those get the most use in this home. Thanks for this video !!
Thank you Amy. I’m fairly organized, but posting to remind myself and help others. God bless you for the “gratitude” attitude adjustment. It makes all the difference. ❤
Thank you SO much for this! I was procrastinating all day and between 4 and 7pm I got 2 loads of laundry completed fully, all my Christmas presents wrapped, dinner prepped and in the oven, and weeded out unused clothes and products from my dresser and closet. Thanks for the motivation! It's crazy what I can get done once I actually start haha!
Perfect timing! Thanks for the encouragement and tips, especially during this hectic time of year. Thank you my friend. That was truly a breath of fresh air to my soul. 😇
As always, a great video, Amy. Plenty of great hacks and advice, whether you have a family or single, an empty nest , or just overwhelmed and need a place to start. When my children were little , I was thankful for our sunroom which became the play room...I could just close the doors pull the curtains and forget there was toys everywhere out there..the rest of the house was clean and tidy!
This was a wonderful video! Thank you for the reminder to be grateful! It is so easy to be negative on what you have to do but changing your mindset to what you get to do makes a huge difference! Thank you for sharing! ❤
I loved this video Amy! It absolutely made me think about what habits I want and need to start as well! What a perfect time of the year to make this kind of video too!! Thank you!! Merry Christmas 🎄
I got to be grateful for toilets and dirty windows today! Lol! Kidding aside... yes, being grateful for what we have, is a great way to start the day! Especially with all that is happening in the world...I also Put the Kitchen to Bed right after dinner...and I do a Two Minute Tidy in the morning prior to starting the day.
I was doing this before I heard you say it, I'm watching my favorite soap, and watching my favorite TH-camr at the same time You're my favorite by far.😊
What a great video! Anyone can use these tips. Always good to add a new GOOD habit. I ❤ stacking chores. Been a homemaker for 25 years. I have learned a lot and am still learning. Thank you for sharing . 😊❤🏠🍽🧹
These are great tips! One thing I do when I dread doing a chore, I set a timer. For example, I tell myself, it should only take five minutes to make my bed and I try to beat that time. I do fold my clothes or making my homeschool schedule watching you, or Kristen Hoffman, Pine & Prsopect Home, or Robin Lane Lowe.
Good morning Amy, you have such a great outlook on things and your absolutely right instead of saying oh I have to turn it around to I'm blessed to do these things. It takes a little time and a mind set to think different. Your right it makes a huge difference. Thank you so much for sharing this. This world is full of negative thinking and doing already so why add to it. Be blessed with what we have and what we get to do. ❤❤❤
I agree going through the seasons, keeps my home declutterred. My theory is if something comes in, something has to go out. Yes! When I need to wait on something, I go get the next task done while that 1st task is getting done. Totally agree on todays info.
Thank you so much for all of your inspiration! I have been struggling a bit this holiday season. Just keeping up with everything has been challenging. I look forward to trying some of your suggestions. Wishing you and yours a very wonderful holiday and a happy and healthy new year.
Great vlog Amy. Like many of your subscribers I also try to do a few tasks each day. Laundry first thing so that when I get home from the school run I can dry it. I definitely like folding laundry and ironing whilst listening to a pod cast. My non negotiable rule is to do the dishes and make sure the kitchen is clean before bed. Sometimes when we have been entertaining and it’s late I don’t feel like doing it but I would rather start the day with a clean kitchen and a calm head! Merry Christmas to all on this channel 🎄
I am always thankful for what I have. I'm glad I have a job where my kids go to school and that means we don't have to worry about child care before or after school. I'm also thankful that we have area to have a small farm where I know what my kids are eating. I always try to make everything homemade, even if my kids complain about it 😂
Needed this been ruff few weeks really overwhelmed! We went through two kids hospital, my mom in hospital, we had strep, serous virus that was absolutely gross. Yes we have so much be grateful for today
I will be praying for you & your family. What you described is stressful & a lot to handle. Your attitude is such an example for all of us! Take care too!!
Can’t thank you enough for today’s video! I pray for encouragement and your video pop in the perfect time. Love it. It was my inspiration and motivation for today. Thanks for sharing 😊
I agree 100% on having mental clarity by creating habits. We are in the stages of building our last home (so thankful, tired of moving😅) and in that planning I am being very strategic about design. I’ve been working on the primary bedroom closet and have decided to have it built large enough to always have every single piece of clothing my husband and myself own, in that one space, whether hung or folded. Nothing will be in a bin or in another closet in a separate room. This has been my number 1 goal since starting this process. And Lord willing I’m going to follow through. 😂
That is what we did as well when we built...with a few exceptions such as heavy winter coats (front foyer closet) and a few dirty work clothes (pegs in garage)...but all our clothes, are in our bedroom and our bedroom walk in closets...great way to see at a glance, what we have/don't wear!
Speaking of seasons, we are currently blessed to be living in the season of the Lord's return. I base this upon all the things He instructed us to watch for which have converged. My #1 daily priority is to fix my eyes upon Jesus and to think eternally rather than temporally. If this does not cause one to reset their priorities, I don't know what will. I pray that those who do not know the Lord would seek Him with their whole heart. As He said, "You will seek Me and you will find Me when you seek Me with your whole heart." Look around. He is coming soon!😊
Amy you have such a calming way about you!Thank you for encouraging us women all ages who need to be grateful and need to be reminded of this!!!This is so calming and enlightening!!Thank you so much!Have a "Merry Christmas"! 😁🍭🎅🍭🤶🍭🎄🍭❤🙏❤🍭

Galatians 6:9 is my favorite verse. ❤️
I put my headphones on and listen to an audiobook while I clean house. It really helps.

I think of homemaking as blessing my family. My home has been entrusted to my care. As long as I keep that in mind it always help me stay motivated.
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it's the courage to continue that counts. Have the courage to start this Monday with enthusiasm.

Amen❤️

Thank you!😊 I linked some of my favorite skincare products in the video description!

Thanks!
Thank you for the reminder to find ways every day to practice gratitude. So often I feel that we take things for granted or that we just overlook things or fall into a negative mindset. As believers and Christ followers we should find ways to be thankful and grateful.

This was a wonderful video! Thank you for the reminder to be grateful! It is so easy to be negative on what you have to do but changing your mindset to what you get to do makes a huge difference! Thank you for sharing! ❤
Thanks!!!

What a great video! Anyone can use these tips. Always good to add a new GOOD habit. I ❤ stacking chores. Been a homemaker for 25 years. I have learned a lot and am still learning. Thank you for sharing . 😊❤🏠🍽🧹
Thank you🥰
So glad you’re feeling better! Great recommendations! Cute sweater 💕
Thank you!
Very good enjoyed constantly putting things up where they belong.
I’m so glad, thank you!

Good morning Amy, you have such a great outlook on things and your absolutely right instead of saying oh I have to turn it around to I'm blessed to do these things. It takes a little time and a mind set to think different. Your right it makes a huge difference. Thank you so much for sharing this. This world is full of negative thinking and doing already so why add to it. Be blessed with what we have and what we get to do. ❤❤❤
I agree going through the seasons, keeps my home declutterred. My theory is if something comes in, something has to go out. Yes! When I need to wait on something, I go get the next task done while that 1st task is getting done. Totally agree on todays info.
Needed this video so bad today
I have to have routines for my home!!!! I like a tidy home when I come home from work', so I can relax in the evening!!!
All great tips Amy, glad I do all of that. Just the two of us , so no excuses.😊
Thank you so much for all of your inspiration! I have been struggling a bit this holiday season. Just keeping up with everything has been challenging. I look forward to trying some of your suggestions. Wishing you and yours a very wonderful holiday and a happy and healthy new year.
Aw, thank you❤️ Merry Christmas to you!
Great vlog Amy. Like many of your subscribers I also try to do a few tasks each day. Laundry first thing so that when I get home from the school run I can dry it. I definitely like folding laundry and ironing whilst listening to a pod cast. My non negotiable rule is to do the dishes and make sure the kitchen is clean before bed. Sometimes when we have been entertaining and it’s late I don’t feel like doing it but I would rather start the day with a clean kitchen and a calm head! Merry Christmas to all on this channel 🎄
Thanks!😊

I am always thankful for what I have. I'm glad I have a job where my kids go to school and that means we don't have to worry about child care before or after school. I'm also thankful that we have area to have a small farm where I know what my kids are eating. I always try to make everything homemade, even if my kids complain about it 😂
They are some great tips,thanks so much.😊❤ l really enjoy your channel.

Can’t thank you enough for today’s video! I pray for encouragement and your video pop in the perfect time. Love it. It was my inspiration and motivation for today. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you!
I agree 100% on having mental clarity by creating habits. We are in the stages of building our last home (so thankful, tired of moving😅) and in that planning I am being very strategic about design. I’ve been working on the primary bedroom closet and have decided to have it built large enough to always have every single piece of clothing my husband and myself own, in that one space, whether hung or folded. Nothing will be in a bin or in another closet in a separate room. This has been my number 1 goal since starting this process. And Lord willing I’m going to follow through. 😂
That is what we did as well when we built...with a few exceptions such as heavy winter coats (front foyer closet) and a few dirty work clothes (pegs in garage)...but all our clothes, are in our bedroom and our bedroom walk in closets...great way to see at a glance, what we have/don't wear!
Speaking of seasons, we are currently blessed to be living in the season of the Lord's return. I base this upon all the things He instructed us to watch for which have converged. My #1 daily priority is to fix my eyes upon Jesus and to think eternally rather than temporally. If this does not cause one to reset their priorities, I don't know what will. I pray that those who do not know the Lord would seek Him with their whole heart. As He said, "You will seek Me and you will find Me when you seek Me with your whole heart." Look around. He is coming soon!😊
Excellent advice!
Thanks!
