5 x 5 Speed Cleaning Hack for a Messy House
5x5 SPEED CLEAN TIMER! | The Secret Slob

[TheSecretSlob]

Let me know what kind of music you like when you clean, I'll add it to the next timer!

Tonight I was praying with my four year old son at bed time and it went something like, “Thank you for mommy. Thank you for Daddy. Thank you for my brothers. Thank you for Steph.” You’re the only Steph he “knows.” 😆 I thought it was so cute!
I am also very thankful for you! I could not understand the Flylady system before I found you. The system has saved our household!

I know I was excited about this method a month ago but I am ecstatic about it now. 🥳 It has revolutionised my home. Two sessions of 5x5 and my entire house is picked up. Done twice a week and my house stays tidy. 🧹Gone are the days of overwhelm and procrastination and guilt at the state of my house. I don’t put off the vacuuming because there’s stuff all over the floor. I can clean my windows, a job I never get to, because I’m not exhausted from dealing with the state of my house. If that isn’t enough I used to spend a whole day yelling and getting frustrated at my kids trying to get them to tidy one room. Injuring our relationships and feeling unappreciated and telling myself that nobody listens and nobody cares. I just did a 5x5 with my boys who are 10, 8, 5 and 3 and my house is spotless. Dishes done, floors vacuumed, clothes in the wash, I mean crazy clean. I cannot believe it and that’s after half an hour of trying to get them to pack up one set of toys in a box. Not only that but I then spent half an hour talking to and connecting with my 5yr old instead of hiding in the bathroom feeling like I didn’t even want to be in the same room as my kids. 😭 Steph you are a freakin genius!!!! I will be eternally grateful to you for giving me this gift 💝

I can’t thank you enough or tell you just how much coming across this post means to me. I’ve been in a major slump with no motivation whatsoever. It got me up and moving and once I got started, I just kept going so thank you.
You probably had no idea when you posted this three years ago that it would still be impacting people today, but it is.

I just cleaned my whole house in 25 mins 😮 never in my 30years have I been able to do that. Usually it’s an all day Sunday project, but I’ve been trying clean my house before I leave, regardless of where I’m heading it can wait. Wow, thanks for this video!!❤

[scraphappyjen]

My house was a disaster 😱 I feel like I’m coming down with the flu 🤧 we have a big weekend coming up and I had two hours until my first appointment of many for today. I was just generally feeling drained and overwhelmed but after three rounds of 5x5 my entire home is feeling like new. I feel energised and accomplished and I still have time for a much needed shower and to put on a fresh face. Thank you so much Steph! You have totally turned my day around!

I am about to use your timer for the first time....I'm pretty darn excited about it too

[tiabarrett]

❤ this one is still so helpful!
Would love more of them. Maybe you could do a celtic music version?! 😊thanks!

[linedarveau]

It’s life changing. I don’t feel like all my weekends are about cleaning. A lot can be done in 25 minutes.Thnak you for that!

[ladonamcalister]

I use this timer every morning to get me moving. Since Covid lockdowns and life changing I had gotten out of a routine of cleaning. Let's be honest, I had stopped even getting dressed most mornings. I love the short videos that have helped me get back on track. I have shared this with so many people already. Thanks!

[tiffanybramlette]

I did sometimes add an extra 30 seconds just to finish a task that I couldn't leave unfinished but man I never realized how much I could get done in only 25mins. Taking a break now but I might go again in just a few to see how much more I can get done today!

[s.f]

Its about two weeks that you made this and I can tell you I have two kids and use that more that twenty time .. some day I use that twice .. and you absolutely save me with this... Thank you 🥰❤️🌹💝

[judybee]

I was seriously just procrastinating and watching declutter videos when this pipped up. I sat for the first 30 seconds or so 🤦then told myself to get up and participate....i didnt get to 5 rooms but i did get laundry folded and put away, dishes washed, papers filed, a light bulb changed in a ceiling fixture and washed the fixture globe. Thanks for the motivation! 😍

[latmcb]

This was great! I think it's the first time I ever got right up to clean. I started reading the comments and told myself to get off my chair and join in. I agree with Heather (below). It would be fun if you were coaching us. It would also be fun if you randomly posted these 5x5 videos every so often as a call to action for the community.

[katwebster]

Your videos are so motivating and encouraging for those who struggle with cleaning routines, thank you!
My little studio is still a mess, but these videos really do help. This morning I used your 5x5 timer video with my morning routine and I was astonished at how much MORE time I had when doing each task; couldn't believe how much time I've mis-spent before

[karolinem.]

I love this method!! It’s what I use on Monday mornings to clean up after our weekends. 😀

[pamwood]

Wow! Thank you for doing this genius video. As I sat there and watched your 5×5 I was thinking I should get up and see how long it actually took me to unload my dishwasher. Then you mentioned this video and I just had to come see it. It started and I got up and unloaded my dishwasher in less than 3 minutes....why did I put it off?? Then I washed the few dishes in the sink and shined my sink. All in under 7 minutes! Now it will be nice to see a clean and shiny sink in the morning ☕

[dawndusk.]

Thank you for this!! I finally organized a coat/storage closet that had been bothering me for months with how messy it was, and it ended up only taking me ten minutes. I'm so relieved haha!

[heathersmeather]

🥰 Thank you! I decided to use this video as my timer, and I’m SO surprised how much I actually got done. This is a very motivational method.

[sjredwood]

This is fantastic! Used this to get ready for weekend company & in a few minutes will use to “reconstitute the house!” Never went quicker. Thank you!
