The most quiet part of learning home without making it complicated

my current rule is simple: if it takes less than 10 minutes to prepare I am much more likely to keep doing it.

I know this is a tiny sample size, but after 2 attempts the pattern is pretty clear. When I keep the setup simple, I actually follow through.

> Tiny progress is still progress.

That line sounds cheesy, but it got me thru the part where decor stopped feeling new

Excellent timing; I was just thinking about home. My only addition is to make the first step visible
