I like cleaning like that! It's easy enough to do every day. Accumulation of marginal gains.
Stochastic cleaning only works if your attention is uniformly distributed. Mine is definitely not. I just wind up doing the dishes every day, a little vacuuming sometimes, and days later I realize the cat box is overflowing.
To be fair im not entirely random. The stuff that jumps out at me is usually the stuff I'm most embarrassed about. I dont want anyone seeing a dirty toilet or the soda can castle I've been building.
This has been my method. I do one hour of grad school, then 10 minutes of chores all day rotating.
