don't make your bed

let's say that you spend a minimum of 5 minutes making our beds each morning. in a year, you spent 30 hours making your bed. you could have spent each 5 minutes to read a page out of a book instead.

I don't structure the blankets on my bed. I don't see the point in ordering the blankets when I'm just going to disorganize them later. I wonder how much time the average person wastes in a life time structuring their blankets. If your bed is against a wall, you have to move your entire bed to 'make your bed' adding the wasted time. I don't think anyone should take pride in fixing their bed. "I'm a responsible and disciplined person because I fix my bed" says the wrong person, but the truth is that you could take pride in having read maybe more than just one entire book by the end of the year. If someone uses their bed as a work place, I can see the point in making the bed, but you could always just move the top blanket aside.
