However, this requires being honest with what you’re capable of doing within that specified time, otherwise setting your targets high will instead leave you demotivated. For a person with relatively much time, it is better to start your cleaning session from the top ( roof top and ceiling) to the bottom. Otherwise, if you don’t do so and do it the other way round, then most likely you’ll keep knocking off the dust to the already cleaned areas.
