About the Quote
We all do the same things over and over. Many of these tasks are just so we can feel better, but there are tasks which are essential. Among these essential tasks are the household chores we do to keep our homes livable and presentable.
We have our techniques for each chore, and each takes a fixed amount of time. What if we can do these chores more efficiently? What if we can do them more economically? What if we can do them in ways which bring us actual joy? The answers to all those questions involve discovering new techniques for doing them. The techniques can combine certain steps, rearrange certain steps, or eliminate some steps altogether.
Once we discover new ways of doing old tasks, we discover money and time saved on them, and we are free to do other things or to save for things we want (even if it's the elimination of debts).
