The way I try to jumpstart this for myself is to take a picture of the place I need to clean. It gives me a fresh perspective so it's easier for me to identify what needs to happen. Secondary benefit is it's easier to make a before and after comparison, for that extra hit of dopamine.

I did that once and the before/after dopamine is nice. But the downside is that looking back at the after photo and realising that it looks like shit again after 10 weeks is even more depressing. Pic of messy garage Pic of cleaner garage
