Diane here - just set your timer for 10 or 15 minutes and do what you can! The current Flylady missions are here flylady.net/c/sp.php#missions And the detailed cleaning lists here www.flylady.net/d/wp-content/uploads/2011/09/Detailed_Cleaning_Lists.pdf Have fun in zone 1!
Thank you for another wonderful motivating video. I finished up the quiet parts of my weekly home blessing and got my dining room floors polished while you spoke! You don't ever have to apologize. You are an incredible inspiration to so many people. Thank you for all you've done. It has truly made an amazing difference in my life! 💜💜
To anyone thinking they will never get their family on board with Flylady, I went out to do the weekly shopping this morning and when I got back my husband had done nearly all the weekly home blessing hour. They do watch you and take note of what you are doing.
I really enjoy your videos. You are so kind and positive and the reminder that anything is better than zero. My husband is now swiping his own sink every morning, as is my daughter in her bathroom. We have a long way to go to get a place for everything and everything in its place. It feels so much more relaxing when the clutter starts going away. I appreciate everything you do for all the flybabys. From Tallahassee, Florida.
Thank you so much for these videos, Diane. Since I started working along with your videos, my motivation is returning, and FlyLady system is really starting to click again. I do my weekly home blessing with you and my zone work too. And any time I feel unmotivated, I put a video on and get to work. I know you can't see me, but I would feel guilty not working along!! These videos have meant the world to me. I am most grateful.
I also like your idea of washing windows, mirrors and glass WHILE IN that ZONE so much easier for me. I wiped down my front door inside and out, washed the hall light switches and some parts of the wall that needed spot cleaned , swept and moped my haul floor (puppy training so felt it needed it) ;) also did my laundry for the day... then threw my mop and dust thingy in the wash so it will be ready for tomorrow... All done! Thank you!! P.s. I love your hall/entryway.
Thanks once again!!! I would just have taken off all the figures from the chess. You've showed me one more time that good enough is good enough and I don't have to clean "behind the wallpaper"!!! Wonderful new profile-picture!
❣Hi, Diane, spiders everywhere...we are living at the basement flat with a direct door to the garden, which I enjoy so much, that I usually don't complain about spiders, but his year they have parties in our flat and invite their whole families. I'm shortsighted, but I see them and their 'homes' even without glasses:-))... love your homemade extended tool, I put a cloth around my broom, long enough to reach them, party over... thank you for showing how nice a dining table looks without a pile of papers. I hate to go through my papers about my car accident, but I have to and always have fear to loose something important, so I throw just one paper on the other. But I want my table back...I saw yours;-). Thank you so much for taking the time to spread some ,inspiration spray' over us all, love, Monika❣
Please stop apologizing- the people who follow you- follow YOU- if we want professional this that and the other thing we would have subscribed somewhere else. Love the motivation, love the realness. Keep doing you :) I am working on the baby steps at the moment - need to be able to see the floor before I can clean and your videos have been a tremendous help. With three kids - 5, 3 and 3 months it is tough- as they make a 60 minute mess in the time it takes me to get through 15 mins of clutter - might be a LONG process to dig my way out of this mess.
+Eli AndFamily Thanks, Eli...I make these videos in my spare time and just want to show that the system works - even if we don't do it perfectly! LOL You do have a lot on your plate (and under your feet), hope you'll take extra care of yourself! 😃💖
I agree, no apology needed. Love that you are not a professional. Even from the other side of the planet, with a bit of different lifestyle...no winter bathing here for me in the U.S. St. Louis, Missouri area...you are very relatable and motivating. Thank you for taking the time to make and share the videos!
I absolutely LOVE seeing bits of your lovely home, Diane! Thank you for inviting us in each weekday, you motivate me to keep going! I wonder, as we've just been hit by the stomach flu at my house, do you have any words of wisdom on FLYing while sick? I hated missing my Home Blessing Hour this morning...just too tired and ill. The perfectionism creeps in a bit, then I feel guilty for being bedridden and unproductive. I'm a bit frustrated with myself today, as I know this attitude is not helping me get well! 😢
Hi Brooke - sorry to hear you're ill... Rest up until you feel better and then perhaps you can use TOTH? I explain it in this video... ruclips.net/video/xn2jboj4cOo/видео.html Get well soon!
yes tons of spiders and bugs this time of year inGermany as well. Thank you so much for your videos! I'm always so annoyed with my kids' shoes in our very narrow hallway....baskets are such a aimple but great idea. Thank you!
Diane je ne sais pas si tu as encore des commentaires négatifs à propos de la façon donc tu filmes tes vidéos et si oui je trouve cela déplorable. Je ne peux pas parler pour celles qui t'écoutent à tout les jours comme moi. Pour moi tes vidéos sont parfaits. Tu es tout le temps de bonne humeur ce qui est vraiment un plus et à chaque fois à la fin du vidéo tu as tout le temps un beau sourire avec du pétillant dans les yeux. Je ne peux pas te dire d'arrêter de t'excuser par ce c'est toi qui gère ton vlog. Ce n'est qu'un petit message pour te dire comment tu es appréciée ma belle. Tu es une constante pour beaucoup de dames présentement. ( pas trop de pression) D'une introvertie à une autre introvertie. Thank, Bye!
How do you not end up with streaked windows? I have to go over mine multiple times with different cloths. One to wash, one to shine. I must be doing something wrong. It's really a lot of work!
Hi Eva! Have you tried just using a damp microfiber cloth or, as I was doing in the video, a squirt of spray/a dry microfiber cloth? I never get out a bucket of water etc - I make far too much mess/takes too long...
+Diane in Denmark I use Windex & paper towels. Maybe I use too much Windex. It confounds me that I struggle so much to get clean, streak-free Windows! Really enjoy your videos. They are motivating & help me with my mindset. Thank you.
Hi Diane! Just a random question- I notice that you do not have screens on your windows. Is this just your personal preference, or is this typical in Denmark?
We have blinds on most of our windows - I think I had them pulled up in this video in order to clean the windows. But, yes, we do have them. And I have black out blinds in our bedroom...I'd never sleep a wink otherwise! LOL
Oh, I'm thrilled you replied to me, but I was actually asking about a screen... so when the window is open it keeps the little buggies out... not a shade or blind. :)
+Cherie' Donohue Ah, I see! No, they aren't common here, probably because we don't have major problems with bugs. Denmark is too cold for those kind of insects! LOL
Hi! I chose to stop working for Flylady Premium a couple of years ago but am still here on RUclips, mentoring and cheerleading in my free time! 😊 And it won't cost you a penny! 😉
Diane in Denmark Thank you Diane, I've recently found you and the 'System' and I'm sure it will work for me! I just need a kick to get me going - I fall into all the traps - trying to do things perfectly and ending up not doing anything because I get disheartened. I'm a master at procrastination! So I shall be following you and your enthusiastic advice! Greetings from the UK 🇬🇧

+Andrea Atkinson Wow, Andrea! Give him a big hug 💕💕💕 And well done for showing him how it's done! 🎉
Yes! My husband has gotten used to seeing the kitchen clean, so doesn't leave a mess in there any more.

Thanks for continuing to do these videos. I see them every morning and they motivate me. I am cleaning with you.
Yay, I love knowing that I'm not the only one here...thanks, Diana! And go you!

Wonderful new profile-picture!
I got off my bottom and dusted and cleaned my windows! You are my inspiration! Thank you Diane😘 from Smyrna, Ga
+Kathy Weaver Woo hoo, thanks for joining me, Kathy! 🎉

It's time to take that table back, Monika - one paper at a time! Hugs to you and your family of German spiders! LOL
So proud of you Diane!
+Dr. Newlin Aww, thank you, Paddi 💖
Thanks Diane ... had a look at vid on my lunch hour at work. Going to make a extending feather duster tonight 😀
Hope you enjoy using it...I'm addicted to mine now! LOL

YES to the spiders!!! We are in North Carolina and they are EVERYWHERE!
You have very little in your home therefore it's so easy to keep clean and tidy yes?
Yes, I have decluttered many, many things over the years...it makes it so much easier to clean 😀
Bonjour, allez vous faire une vidéo Zone 1 en français ?et aussi blessing cleaning ? Vos vidéo sont super. ☺️
