When it comes to vacuuming they use it as an opportunity to get some strength training in - vacuums are heavy and with repetition can create some nice bicep toning, especially if you have to lug one up stairs. When it comes to folding those piles of laundry that have stacked up they sing along to their favorite songs, listen to a book on tape, something to multi task and distract them from the tediousness at hand. Then when it's all said and done, because they had a positive attitude and, oh, here it come, FUN doing house work, they have energy to spare. Maybe they'll go cook their husbands favorite loaf of bread before he get's home and set up a spicy evening of fun just for them.

Which one sounds like the better deal to you? Which one do you think got more done? Yes - that would be the happy person behind door number two! Because with a positive attitude you automatically tackle the projects that you might have put off until later. A cursory house cleaning with a bad attitude just morphed into a full on spring cleaning with energy to spare by simply turning that frown upside down.
