I've managed a few lives, but usually on the playback crew. I feel inspired by watching and listening to these videos. ❤
Please, Ms Marla... don't be sad. Plz don't cry. Your teachings DO help many many "fly babies"! Keep on going ~ please❤ so many ARE following your words.😊
No notification. Got sidetracked with airtanker ops at the airport .
Miss Marla, please don’t feel discouraged! You ARE helping lots of people! Me included! In fact, I love this new series you’re doing! 💕
I struggle too.
I thank God for you, Flylady. Sending you giant hugs. Time to shine my sink.
You are helping my family of 6 recover from perfectionism and depression. I look forward to your videos everyday even if I don't catch them live.
😊 Flylady you have been a sincere blessing 🙌 in my life. I appreciate your labor of love, correction and rebukes. 😊. I hear GOD through you❤. Commenting hoping you would personally see this and be encouraged to know you are making a difference and are valued.
I just love your show. So loving & honest & to the point. It has helped me Declutter my own house and my daughters when I’m over there watching my grandbabies. My daughters thank me all the time and I have learned to do what I’ve done to their house and keep it going and that’s all thanks to you. I’ve got one daughter that’s close to the Lord and the other one I’m trying to help to get back on the straight road. But I tell them little tricks and hints that I’ve learned from you and it really does help so keep up the good work I will continue to pray for you as I always do you truly are helping a lot of people. thank you so very much.
The bicycle story made me cry. As a mom of two young adult sons (one still lives at home), this makes me so thankful for what I have. They, along with my husband, are the most precious people in the world to me. Thanks for the reminder to exercise more patience with them all, especially my husband who tends to get the brunt of my frustration from time to time. You never know when that kiss goodbye in the morning will be the last one. 😢
Dear Marla, thank you for talking about perfectionism. I’m a new fly baby and intuitively after first and second lessons (I wrote everything in a notebook and studied hard and then I was tired but did not give up with checking my hot spots at night and setting timer for 15 min) I picked up this exact video. And I’m so happy and grateful I am🙏 Yes, I won’t burn myself and as of now I’m doing a load of laundry every day, 15 min times 3 in different rooms and checking my hot spots in the morning and in the evening. That’s it! The blessing thing was a little overwhelming for me, already too much and I felt a little bit giving up. BUT after watching this lesson I won’t. Today in the morning a strange and unbelievable thing happened. It is already very visible that I’m following your routines. I took my friend out on Friday for her birthday and as we were walking back from the restaurant we stopped at my place to chat longer AND I didn’t realize I wasn’t scared to have her over because my house was somewhat ok, you know not perfect but with cleaned hot spots and 15 min thing it was ok to have a guest over! Ok, I almost forgot about the strange thing that happened this Monday morning. My 9 yo son took a cloth and wiped first with a damp cloth his iPad. You gotta se his iPad.. sticky fingerprints and just with marks of food. AND he took a damp cloth (totally his wish I did not know what he was doing), cleaned his iPad AND guys wait for it. Took a paper towel and polished it! I caught him doing it the moment he took a paper towel. And then he presented his work to me proudly. The iPad looks like a piece of candy now 😊 Thank you Marla for your life valuable lessons of BABY steps, what a relief! 💗
Amen to all you said! I think a lot of people are overwhelmed with all the chaos in our country and our families and they’re tired. God bless you for how you have helped me raise my family. Homeschooled 6 children and took care of my mil for 10 years (dementia 😢) Now we are retired and I’ve helped my dh with routines. He’s learning! I pray everyday for the Spirit to help me be kind and sweet and we have a beautiful life! Hugs to you 💕💕💕 Thank you 🙏
Jesus wept. John 11:35.
So glad to be dressed to my shoes, hair done, bathroom swished and swiped, sink shiny and laundry sorted for another load. It would hurt me to think your tears were falling on deaf ears.
We are hearing you, we are jumping in with both feet, we will have habits. Yes, we can do this. I can do this! Got some habits under my belt and turning them into routines already!
Know what got me going, you frying chicken on u-tube. I want some of that Sunday dinner chicken, mashed potatoes, gravy and biscuits. Now, what’s chicken got to do with anything? No counter space.
Found the electric skillet and lid but there’s no room on the counter. Not where the plug in on the wall is. I go to bed with a shiny sink and that sink stays empty cause I hand wash as I go. You used your stove top but I want to use my electric skillet.
I needed a little deep cleaning done so the fridge got defrosted. So much for frost free. Then the stove top and oven got scrubbed shiny. Self clean still needs wiped up inside. Yes, the drawer on the electric stove got pulled out and wiped down too.
Chicken pops grease everywhere and after all that deep cleaning, this grandmother is in no mood to be scrubbing down a stove top anytime soon. I know my routines will become habits so all this deep cleaning is a thing of the past now.
Still, till my fingerprints grow back, I am frying in the electric skillet. Empty counters are easy to wipe down. So your chicken is moving me to clear off my counters. The next deep cleaning is defrosting the chest freezer. Frost free or not it has been years since the freezer floor has seen daylight.
You are so right about keeping a shiny sink. I kept waking up to a clean spot and it is like, now you’ve done it. Having the fridge and stove all shinny clean makes me smile. Doing the freezer won’t take very long cause my husband has long arms and ever since seeing me with my feet off the floor stretching for things he always offers to help.
We did the fridge with no counter space and no one has seen the table top since I learned about Amazon shopping. Clutter is our elephant in the kitchen. You would think just do the table and counters first. Not us. No, we would rather pile food up in boxes than face that mess. Besides there is a bad smell we need to find and clean up. Yes, we have two cats but they have never known a dirty kitty box due to me being retired and known as their staff. But they swat any and every thing they can turn into a toy. My wedding band and engagement ring are both missing. Another reason to get back on the FLY Lady bandwagon. Bandwagons are FUN!
Long text but your Babies do not always comment. We are out there. We are stepping all around our homes, thanks to you. Why, I have weed free flowers cause watering has become a habit now. I see a fried chicken dinner on the table because of your baby steps. Time to finish up that load of laundry and set my fly lady timer.
Getting a like is very much like a hug! Thanks
Love your comment Marian.... nearly fell out bed laughing at your comment about your freezer.. as I'm only 5 foot nothing I have no deep freeze chest for fear of falling into the darn thing... That would be very ladylike with my heels in the air! Sounds like you are doing really good with flylady. I am just starting again after a while in hospital but I have the hope I can soon get myself on the straight road again.
I’m older and found you ages ago when I struggled because of life circumstances. And funny, but I knew how to do things and stay organized etc., but found it hard to keep up when family members needed help and I still worked. Your encouragement and inspiring words were a Godsend. I couldn’t do everything but I could do something. And i repeat so many of your sayings. Now since I never recovered and life got tough again, I found you. And I can do a few things and it’s good enough. Without you I might not do those few things. Don’t despair. I watch all your stuff but was very busy and unable to tune in as much. God bless you, Marla. 😊
I enjoyed all the lessons except the couple that you played your songs on. I would rather hear your encouragement. The songs didn't do anything for me. But many of your words stuck. Especially procrastination 😊
I have found it amazing when I get up and clean 1 area. Clutter out the door. Trash in the trash can and both put the door. Give away clutter driven straight to good will.
Area cleared and looks wonderful and bigger in that area.
Dearest Marla, thank you, thank you and God bless.
Admitting I did not fully grasp the FLYSystem off the hop, but I listened to you, trusted your words, and stuck with it. Now I know 2 minutes is better than none. It is amazing! I use your guidance for work too! All The pesky procrastination things in life. I set my timer for 10 or 15 minutes, say to myself “I can do anything for 10 minutes” then go go go. When the timer goes off I purposely stop. And return to the task sometime later or next day and repeat the whole process and say the same thing. It truly works! I love you dearly and thank you. ❤
No it’s the ads. It’s harder to watch and clean now but we’re adjusting. You deserve to monetize.
Yes I agree with all your points
I agree, she does deserve to monetize but I just had on a 35 minute video and there were no less than 6 ad breaks. That is too many. I don't mind ads, they're easy enough to deal with but when it's every few minutes it gets annoying. Idk, just my 2 cents that probably don't mean much 😂
Don’t worry, Marla !
Keep doing God’s work
We love you !🤗
Love you! 💘 You gave me a push in the right direction in 2008. I have so many good habits now and my house honestly practically cleans itself. Whenever I encounter someone who confides a need to get their home running better I send them your way! Sorry you don't feel your new series is reaching enough people - it will reach the people it is meant to reach!
Marla. We love you and are so grateful you started FlyLady to help all of us. Thank you! I’ve been with you for over 20 years. Still falling off the wagon but I get back on again. My house is nothing like it was when I started. And now my babies are grown and using your methods in their homes, too. You have affected generations! May God continue to bless and keep you and Robert and your family and friends. You have blessed so very many people. ❤❤❤
Yes, FLYLADY. I’m listening. So far I’ve managed the clean sink and have (almost) stopped adding to my hoard. One step at a time in clearing the clutter and taking care of myself. You continue to be helpful to me as I have followed you for quite a few years.
Just so you know, I am struggling with perfectionism but with your lessons I feel like I can breathe because I realized that things don't have to be perfect. YOU'RE telling me that. Because of you, I know that if I miss a daily task, I can start back tomorrow. And with the pressure off my shoulders I don't dread cleaning or cooking and my house looks good thanks to you. So thank you.
I try to watch you everyday even if it’s a rerun. You are helping me to rethink and get busy.
Thank you for all you do!!😘
I am concerned about your very obvious depression and despair and frequent weeping on daily videos. You need help Marla I wish you well but I do hope you will seek the medical care and attention you so obviously need ! I let pride prevent me from getting help until my family convinced me I was unwell and I feel so much better I just wish I had been more able to ask for and accept help earlier.❤Love Polly
Oh no - I hate to see you upset! Please remember you have helped a lot of people, & will help many more. My thoughts are that people are living with a lot of overwhelm & financial issues. It has NOTHING to do with you. Everyone’s doing the best they can & that’s what counts. Don’t give up Fly Lady, we still need you! ❤
I practise swish and swipe since the first of last august♥️
You have helped me and my family so much! We can jump right back in and get started again. ❤
Thank you for what you said about teachers❣️
Yes!! That’s my favorite part about flylady! You can jump in and start anywhere. I’ve been working on this for at least a month now and I just did my morning routine from start to finish for the first time yesterday! I was so proud but it took me a month. And that’s okay! I still haven’t done a full home blessing. The habits I’ve nailed down, and the ones I’m working on have changed my life. Progress over perfection. Because perfection 👏🏻 does 👏🏻 not👏🏻 exist! 👏🏻 love you flylady and fly babies!!
Ti vogliamo bene! Col tuo lavoro hai migliorato la vita di tantissime persone, anche nel mondo! Finalmente abbiamo imparato a volerci bene!! Un saluto dall'Italia!!!
Hi 👋🏻 Italy
My youngest daughter found you after years of me doing your system all her life. She did all the 101 videos and has made huge progress. Progress and not perfection.
I’m sorry I am one of those who perfectionism gets the best of me every time, I wasn’t able to keep up with your lessons on a daily basis but then I said well let me watch them and I couldn’t find them all in order….. I found day one here and day two there and then I couldn’t find I think it was day four and day five so it messed me up and then I gave up! I can’t believe all the work you put in to all of this and how much you love everyone who watches your videos!!! Thank you so very much for putting this together each video was so valuable and I’m gonna do what you say and not worry about the order and I’m gonna try and catch up and watch them and implement the things that you say. Thank you dear Marla and God bless you and just realize how much you do for so many people, you are a true servant of the Lord Almighty!!! 💖🙏💖
Thank you for giving us your time on a Saturday.
I’m pretty new to FlyLady, but it has already made a huge difference! Thanks so much.
Miss Marla. Jesus stopped for ‘the one’. Don’t be dismayed by the analytics. Even if you change ONE person that’s worth it all. And I know you e changed more than one 😘. I’ve loved learning what you’re teaching!
❤I’ve been watching the videos some live some not. You can’t take it personal .
I dont know your email or I would of put it there thank you so much for this video I felt as though you was reaching through the screen and just hugging me and saying it's ok I understand and I'm here to help you I love you very much flylady and thank God for you I feel this is your calling
I struggle perfectionism 😢
💗🙏
🙏🙏🙏💛💛💛
Your videos and emails are such a blessing. Thank you for all you do!🎉😊❤
All I did last night was cook dinner, sweep the kitchen floor, took out the trash in the kitchen, shinned my sink. And while my kitchen was still "messy" it looked SOOOO much lighter this morning vs if I had done nothing last night.
I'm in NY visiting. I'm watching the Playlist! But, I've been here with FlyLady before, so I've already gotten the basics down pat for years. I needed to come back bcz 1) during 2020 I bought too much stuff online. 2) my mom passed and I kept stuff from her stuff. I'm having trouble decluttering. I knew where to go. HERE! I'm happy to be here! Others will figure out that this is good! I've seen other organizing people... they all want a bunch of money to tell people the same things you're teaching us for free! YOU ARE THE BEST!!! ❤️ 🥰
Your method has a learning curve. I exhausted myself when I first tried it: I was doing the daily focus, the laundry, the routines, the detailed cleaning, the decluterring, the missions, the journal...it was taking me 2 hours everyday. After 1 week, I crashed...then I had someone who explained the method properly & I also adapted it for me so it was just a breeze...I tackled ONLY the areas that were bugging me & left the rest for later, once my messiest zones were in order. It helped me see the progress.
💗👏
Marla, I’ve followed you since the early days of the internet and met you with my babies at your library years ago. Between 2020 and 2022, I accumulated a lot of stuff I shouldn’t have. I’m also caring for elderly parents and working part time. I’m so tired. I’m praying to get things back where they should be. Love you, Marla!
Don’t worry! Things work out to those who love the Lord.
I love the new series, I have been going back to ones I've missed. AND jumping in on the video of the day. You CONTINUE to help me after over a decade of listening to you, your heart, reading your words. I am NOT missing this. You are right about perfectionism and the timing of giving up after a day or two of "failure" for many of us flybabies. Bless you, Marla and your tender heart.
Marla, I have been following you for about six years. It took years for me to sit down and listen to you live. Work and health got in my way. This year I finally found the time to listen. And I’m so thankful it’s a habit now. You are a huge inspiration on me and my family. I love your habits and I’m reading C.H.A.O.S. now. Can’t thank you enough for all you do.
I use these videos as “company” while I work on my house.
Hi, thank you for caring for us, Marla. I have been a flybaby for years and I always remember that shining my sink is the place I start when things get chaotic. I just moved to another state and opening boxes threw me off my routines. Thanks for your 31 baby steps, they always help me calm down and just start again.
Thank you for teaching us planning and discipline Marla.
Also, I only caught the second lesson. I haven’t gone back to the first one and the toobie algo has not given me notifications of your next ones. Thankful I saw you live while I was on the phone!! ❤️thank you!😊
It really is so hard. Perfectionism is so hatd to deal with, but it can be done.
Oh dear Marla! Love all your 101 videos! I just jumped in the wagon fully thanks to these 101 videos and even dowloaded my Flylady Premium app. I'm excited and motivated!. Thank you! Been following you for the past 20 years here in Guadalajara, Mexico. Luv ya to the moon and back!
You helped me all this time.
Thank you❤
I needed to hear this! Please don’t be sad! We love you.
Everything will be great!
Marla-I’m sure you are right about the perfectionism but there is also a lot of “overwhelm” out here with school starting, so people miss videos even though the videos would help. Also, people may be on vacations this time of year. Thanks for all you do.
I love the Flylady principles and I love being reminded about habits that have gone by the way side for whatever reason. Last week I made my bed every day for the first time in months! Sometimes my sink is shiny and sometimes it's not! I try to swish and swipe most days, but I have never made it every day! Comparison is the thief of joy! So is perfectionism. So sorry you have been distressed by what has happened. I am subscribed and get all notifications. I know lots of others will, too, when they realize all the great advice you offer. I can say "swish and swipe" or "shiny sink" and make new friends cuz folks (men and women) know exactly what I am talking about! You have had a profound influence in people's lives. Thank you!
Angie, there's a way to keep your past routines ever present so you don't forget them when you go on to the next one. Write them down and put them where you can see them every day. check them off or put a star beside them when you have finished doing it. It makes you accountable to yourself and rewards you too. Hugs to you, (FlyCrew)
@@drpaddi Oh, well , thanks for that but the point of my comment to help people understand that "perfectionism" is not the aim here. Although, your idea of a star sticker chart (like I'm a child) seems to point toward to that!
just had a hectic week last week, but Hey you really inspired me to "clean up & declutter" just in my "buzziness", got so much done this last week, and got back in routine with the "Shine my zink " routine... just had to improvise.. we have a septic tank, can't use those strong chemicals every day, but i found Biofriendly stuff!! Getting back on track... Summer is coming! whoop whoop
Dont worry about us. We we're probably so caught up into school started and new routines being set. I'm good. Thank you 💚
Where is the fly lady 101 series at? I am having trouble finding it.
It’s not about perfectionism
You are right♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
So glad my sink is shiny, and it does make me smile, dishwasher is empty for less stress, and a load of towels are in the wash for my family! I even have dinner ready and my own lunch packed on my launch pad, at 3:30pm- even though I am on my way to work at 5pm! I’m not perfect but I keep going because of You & your shows. I follow you each day and I do struggle sometimes. But after 5 years with you is does get easier ❤ I must say. You hold a special place in my heart. My mom is in the nursing home, and my grandmother who passed away 2 years ago (who filled in as a mom) is with the good Lord. I’m not close to my sister anymore and I reach to you for help. You are my saving grace and who I look up to most days! Please don’t cry and we love you 😘
What are the options to get rid of ads? Do you have any paid subscriptions services? I am happy to pay to support your channel but not sure how it works.
RUclips Premium or an ABP (AdBlockerPlus) installed on your browser. OR just use it as an excuse to get up and stretch or move your body. :)
Thank you!
Marla, I've been watching all the videos, but I can't always watch live. I always hit the thumbs up. I am doing the work, but I never get notifications, so, I didn't know about your Saturday show. I'm watching on Monday after listening (not live again) to your other Monday shows. I hope you know how much you help others. Blessings to you and your family and your team.
This one speaks so much to me because I was raised partly by a parent who was a perfectionist and still is, and I really don't know how to keep my house organized. I also haven't known how to raise my kids to know how to do it either. I could cry buckets because I just feel so lost. Thank you so much for this video, just that encouragement right there to not be yelling at my kids and instead give them little steps just like I need too.💜
So sorry that you are sad. I appreciate your reminders about not being perfect!! If nothing else, I always remember that you say clean your sink before you go to bed ❣ You do make a difference and I find that I can still jump back in, no matter what is going on : )
Thanks for you system. I have been at it before flylady, when there was the card system with the two ladies, Sidetracked Home Executives. It is a system that is adaptable to any time or situations in life. Thanks so much.
A friend introduced me to FlyLady years ago. I've gone through many stages of life and just adjust my routines as needed.
Thank you gor work♥️
please don't cry on the video, you do reach people.
I’m crying this one really hit home 😢❤
I’m following along but I rest Friday night through Saturday night, and Sunday I spend time doing the basics and spending with the family. But Monday through Friday I am coming along. Sometimes I watch other extra videos during the week (like today)
I already had good morning and night time habits and wash at least 1 loads a day from years ago when I was trying to learn this system when I had 6 little kids at home. I’ve gotta say! Having it all laid out on the website how it is makes it so easy to follow along.
Oh wow didn’t realize this was from a year ago….what on earth
