At some point it's got to be easier to get it over with and just do the damn dishes. (sh.itjust.works)

It’s not gonna cure you or anything but something I did was only kept out two of every plate, bowl and utensil. I put the rest away in a place that would take more time to take out than to clean. As I got more into the habit of cleaning the dishes by necessity I would add one more set. Now I have the full set and though I still struggle I am much better at getting my dishes cleaned.

Thanks, that's similar to another suggestion someone shared and I think I may actually try it. It sounds like just the right kind of brain hack for me considering that throwing away all my old, mismatched socks and replacing them with a dozen identical pairs improved my laundry experience by about 300%.
