De-Clutter Your Life

23 July 2015

Reconsider your routines
Sometimes sticking to the same thing every day means an out-of-the-blue task becomes a shock to the system. It's good to have structure, especially with a very busy lifestyle. But it's also important to remember we must enjoy life and value spare time we have. Trying a new routine and mixing things up will help get some of those tasks on the never-ending to-do list to calm down.

Reduce commitments
There's a saying, it's something to do with spreading butter too thin on toast. The exact wording always slips my mind but I'll never lose the real meaning behind it. When we're constantly multitasking we naturally lose track of time and eventually energy. It's not always easy for everyone, but prioritising certain responsibilities will wash a way a little clutter.

Enjoy the good bits
Majority of the working world have very busy lives. It's hard to de-clutter because there seems to be so much and it's difficult to know where to start. That's why it's vital we treasure special moments that could occasionally be once in a lifetime chances. Many people have bucket lists or constantly carry a camera so they can get the very best out of what life has to offer.

Write things down
When I have the time to really sit down and thing about de-cluttering my life. I like to write everything down. Just grabbing a pen and paper and listing everything and anything I can think of. Visual aids help my brain to stop stressing and it's much easier for me to focus if I see all my obstacles in front of me.

  2. These points are very true. I always try to enjoy those little moments, mix up my routine just so I won't get bored. Also, I love writing, so writing up everything that's bothering me into the notebook is very revealing and actually helps to reduce that stress and bad thoughts :)

  6. I'm all for decluttering and reorganizing! There's something incredibly refreshing about it. My favorite bit is reconsidering routines -- we get so stuck in what we're doing that we don't see that we need change or that something different could be good for us. Definitely a thoughtful post!

  10. http://binarymetabotreview.co/

    Among the major tools that the financial spread betting was able to create and contribute to the world of financial trading is the binary. Firms that are engaged into this kind of transaction created this in order to speculate on the market, as well as profit from these speculations. Another driver why they made this is because of its tax-free benefit on the trader's or bettor's earnings since these transactions can be considered as gambling. However, how binaries work in the real or actual world? This is what will be the focus of this article.
