Cleanliness, my personality

Cleanliness is important to the body, and more than that is physical fitness to attain a healthy body and mind. By SANDEEP SINGH

CLEANLINESS
Cleanliness they say is next to godliness. How would you describe your relationship with cleanliness?

My relationship with cleanliness is top-notch because I'm a lover of clean space and tidiness. I can't stay in a dirty environment or stay around with dirty people. I like to do my things neatly. A clean and organized environment reflects my personality traits, for example, I am disciplined, detailed, and oriented. It also states my personal preferences and habits.

My clean living room

Cleanliness and tidiness play a special role in my life, I like to keep things in order staying in an organized and clean environment is my personality. I feel a sense of satisfaction when my surroundings are clean and visually appealing.

Do you find yourself constantly tidying, or do you embrace a more relaxed approach?

Constantly rearranging my space.
I don't have a relaxed approach to cleanliness. I don't feel comfortable in a cluttered space or untidy environment. So, constant tidying is a priority in my personality. The act of tidying up has been my thing right from my early days. My Mom was/is the cleanest type I have ever seen. Do you know how many times I swept when I was growing up? For a day, it was uncountable because Mom must not feel anything like sand underneath her feet🤔 If we heard her coming in, we would start rearranging things we had disorganized before her arrival. This upbringing made me who I am today. I can't deal with dirtiness and an untidy environment.

How does your environment reflect your personality?

There was a time I went to see a cousin of mine somewhere around Lagos, the house they rented had no suckaway. So, anytime they bathe, they have to pack the dirty water so that they can trash it inside the gutter outside. On getting there I didn't know until the next when I discovered going to the bathroom with and coming outside with dirty water 🤔🤔as in, who does that?

While I was nursing my first child, you won't ever know whenever you enter my house to see the traces of a child scattering or littering everywhere with toys, and biscuits among others. My kind of personality can stay and operate in a dirty environment. I stopped eating kilishi (Dried spicy meat) all because I saw the way it was been produced in a dirty environment. I refused to eat while I was in the NYSC camp for three weeks because big flies were perching on the food stored in the kitchen. Dirty environment is a deal breaker for me.

Does cleanliness impact your productivity, creativity, or sense of well-being?

In the aspect of productivity, a clean environment helps to reduce distractions, and getting to work in a neat and conducive environment promotes a good working atmosphere and creates a high level of productivity. I got a menial job some years back when I was still job hunting. I only worked for four days because the environment was a no-go area for me. I couldn't cope and I left without looking back. A deal breaker for me.

In the areas of creativity, a clean environment enhances focus, fresh ideas, and inspiration, it allows me to think creatively and positively when I'm in a clean space. Creativity cannot come to me in a messy and chaotic environment. I don't get inspired 👌

In areas of well-being, my sense of well-being is impacted by cleanliness. This is reflected in my dress sense and some other traits. I don't like eating outside, I don't just eat anyhow as a result of not knowing how the food was prepared. There is a popular place where they sell moi-moi(bean pudding). The moment I heard they use legs to peel their beans, I picked raise🏃🏃and I was pissed straight. How on earth do you do that to so many souls?
Cleanliness is important to my overall well-being

For your mom to have made you sweep so many times till there was nothing like a feel of sand on the floor😂, it’s enough to let us know how much you definitely like to clean.
It’s actually always good to have a clean space.
