Have you felt frustrated or overwhelmed with projects you have wanted to complete? There are many ways to complete cleaning tasks and home projects successfully. I recently read an article on how powerful it can be to “finish” something, especially in our homes. When I thought about this, I felt there was a much more powerful word, “complete.” Successful home projects, including cleaning and organizing projects, will feel good with this one thing: completion!
It can be a real challenge to keep our thoughts, tasks, and to-do’s sorted and stored in our heads.
God created an incredible machine, our brain. However, I don’t feel it was meant to retain so much information AND be able to keep it all organized.
Have you ever experienced forgetting things or feeling you didn’t complete as much as you thought you could?
Lists that organize our tasks and time can help us to be very efficient! Eliminate overwhelm and get your thoughts organized!
Have you been asking yourself, “Why can’t I get rid of this stuff?” Something that seems so easy for your brain is a much harder task in the heart.
Instead of addressing what has been taking up space, or staring at you for up to years, you avoid it. After awhile, the clutter becomes invisible.
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, here are some ideas to help you learn how to declutter the mind, sleep better, and feel refreshed.
Do you find that you have a hard time making decisions?
Have you ever thought about what holds you back from making a decision? I understand how decisions can be very powerful.
I know from my personal experience that when I postpone making a decision, it can impact myself, my business, and sometimes my family. When making a decision I need to do it on purpose, otherwise chances are I will procrastinate.
Do you ever feel overwhelmed by your surroundings and your stuff? Some can not imagine what their life would look like without all they own and collect.
But can you imagine for a moment what your life would be like with less? Less to manage, less to clean, and less to think about.
We can read all sorts of books, watch all sorts of TV shows about getting organized. But sometimes it can take a quote that gives us a fresh new perspective to see our situation in a different light.
Have you considered that there is more to your clutter than the way it looks?
I do.
I know that when I am not consistent with sorting the mail, or finishing paperwork, I am burdened more with the papers that are left in my tray than by ignoring them.
We all have errands and tasks that we need to daily and weekly.
Many of us create lists with great intentions and aspirations of what we will accomplish!
There is so much more to decluttering and getting organized than nice containers and labels.
There are some who want very much to make changes in their home. However, they are afraid of what may happen if they make decisions, and they aren’t the right decisions, and then let the items go.
