Monday Maintenance: The Golden Rule of Cleaning

I know that today’s main­te­nance tip will seem ridicu­lously sim­ple to some.  It’s so sim­ple, in fact, that each time I’ve thought about post­ing it I’ve man­aged to talk myself out of it.

But today it occurred to me – to some peo­ple the con­cept of spend­ing less than you earn is so patently obvi­ous they’d never think to include it in the list of finan­cial must-dos.  Still, there it is — on lists every­where as the Golden Rule of finan­cial sol­vency:  Spend Less Than You Earn.

So, with­out fur­ther ado, here’s the Golden Rule of Clean­ing:  If you clean it while it’s clean, it will never get dirty.

I sure wish I’d grown up with that phi­los­o­phy of clean­ing and main­te­nance.  It would have saved me a lot of has­sles and frus­tra­tion over the years.  I know now that clean­ing a clean toi­let is just so much eas­ier than clean­ing a dirty one.  Amen to that!
