The worst menial task I deal with is: Dishes hygiene; I feel like I’m putting in too much effort into washing dishes, and it makes me struggle with doing the task at all.
- I wash a dish repeatedly because I feel like it.
- I try to wash all stains and food off dishes.
EDIT: I also dislike inefficiency, so this would be a good opportunity to improve my methods.
For tasks that allow it (doing dishes is one of them) I’ll have an audiobook that I’m only allowed to listen to if I’m doing the chore I need to do. It makes it go faster since I’m not focusing on how I wish I wasn’t doing it, and I’m motivated to start so I can listen to my stories.
