According to a recent study, people who make their beds are more adventurous, confident, gregarious, and high-maintenance.
Here are three reasons why and how making your bed can contribute towards a character.

Here are three reasons why and how making your bed can contribute towards a character.
1. A sense of achievement
It may appear to be a minor effort, but making your bed first thing in the morning provides you a sense of success. It only takes a few minutes of your time each morning to set a great tone for the rest of the day.
2. Creating Good Habits
When making your bed becomes a habit, you may notice that other positive habits will automatically follow. You now keep your clothing off the floor, and dusting has become a necessary habit that you like. Once you realize how quickly you can do these duties, you may begin to incorporate these habits into other areas of the house, such as the kitchen and living room. Before you realize it, your entire home will seem like a delightful, relaxing getaway.
3. Reduced levels of stress
A decluttered bed contributes to a decluttered environment. A clutter-free environment leads to a clutter-free mentality. A clutter-free mind leads to a clutter-free existence. You get the idea...
So can becoming a bed-maker actually change your life?

The creek, on private property, is shared by about nine neighbours.
Resident Diane O’Connor said they held “high value” on the eels, some of which were estimated to be about 30-50 years old.
But on March 11, about 30 of the eels died from suspected ammonia poisoning after wastewater overflowed into the creek.
The neighbourhood took huge pride in its creek, and to lose so many eels in a manner in which they would have suffered was “heartbreaking”, she said.
“We’re incredibly upset about that because the eels are part of our neighbourhood. We absolutely love the eels.”
An investigation into the overflow by Watercare found a pipe had been blocked by solidified fat.
“This is why we encourage our customers not to pour cooking fats and oils down the kitchen sink. These solidify as they cool, and when combined with things like wet wipes, can cause blockages in our wastewater network," a spokesman said.
