Or you start out with folding clothes, then start putting them away, get distracted by the dishes or cleaning up the bathroom, and start on that other chore. The key is to eventually get back to the original (easier said than done), but even if you didn't really get it done quickly, you often put yourself in the mindset of cleaning, which helps on its own.

Oof, thinking about all the chores I could do right now is exhausting. I think I'm going to lie down and read tvtropes for the next 6 hours.

Nah, try forcing yourself to start one, and decide you're going to take a break from it for "*just a minute" *™ by doing another chore, and be amazed by how many chores you get done avoiding the first one. Bonus points if the first chore isn't even that bad.
