    Honestly it’s more like

    Oh boy, a well-defined task with a beginning, progress, an end, and an obvious benefit to someone! I get to be valuable!

    versus

    I have several days’ worth of clean clothes, there is no need to rush

      Yeah, tbh, I tend to not do a lot of my chores because… I don’t feel the need to. Why clean when I’m ok with the current level of dirtyness? Why wash when I still got clean stuff that I want to wear? Etc.

      For me personally, even if I don’t have days of clean clothes and NEED to do laundry like right now, it’s still way harder to do something for myself than it is to do it for someone else.
