It's called the broken window effect.<br /><br />In some neighborhoods, if one building is not maintained and gets broken windows, the impoverishment spreads until the whole neighborhood is destitute. In such a neighborhood, if one building is restored, slowly the others get restored, too.<br /><br />This also happens inside of a house with clutter. In the bedroom, if you make the bed, it's easier to keep the rest of the room picked up. In the kitchen, it's usually the sink (if it's clean and free of dishes, the rest follows suit). In the living room it's often the coffee table. And so on.<br /><br />So, no, you're not silly! :)April Mackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946968627887624127noreply@blogger.com
