In my experience, your place doesn’t have to be super nice but just being clean/organized with the yard cut if you have one will do wonders for how you feel. Once I got this place clean, I started exercising again…then eating better…then quit smoking cigs. Hard to get motivated to do positive things when you are surrounded by filth and disorganization.
