Running a Household
📋 What it is
Managing a home means handling rent or bills, chores, repairs and keeping a safe, organised space.
🗣️ Coach says
A home runs on invisible work: bills paid on time, chores shared, small repairs done before they grow. None of it is hard alone — but keeping a system (a chore chart, a bill calendar) is what keeps a household calm.
🧠 Memory hook
Bills on time + shared chores + small repairs early = a calm home.

Lemons aren't cheap, and neither is rent.
😲 Whoa!
A tiny leak fixed early can save a huge repair bill later — “a stitch in time saves nine.”
✅ Quick check: Why is it smart to fix a small household problem (like a leak) quickly?
Say your answer out loud first — then reveal.
Because small problems grow into big, expensive ones if ignored — fixing early saves money and trouble.
Preventive maintenance is a key household-management mindset.
