Back to Basics: The Clutter Busting Journey

by

For the last five weeks, I have been working toward eliminating clutter with the goal of 40 items in 40 days. I attempt to do this practice each year during this Lenten season and because the transition from winter to spring is a great time to clear away clutter.

As I reflected on this practice with about a week left to go, I realized that most of my recent posts really focused on positive thinking and inspiration. And I hope that you have found them of value. Yet it is time to get back to basics and spend some time on clutter busting.

Being clutter-free is more about a destination than a journey and I invite you to come on that journey with me over the next few weeks as I plan to share information including getting started, staying motivated, tips and techniques as well as getting unstuck.

So, come along on this journey with me.

Abundance Check In

by

Three months into 2020, I thought that I would check in on how I am doing with my word choice for the year.

As with anything, choice and focus are important. By focusing on the word abundance this year, I have been able to achieve some successes already.Here are my tips so far on attracting or living with abundance:

1. Focus on one day at a time.
2. Affirmations are an important daily practice.
3. Make a choice daily to live abundantly.
4. Practice daily gratitude.
5. Develop or maintain positive self-talk.
6. Keep your eye on your vision.
7. Perform random acts of kindness.
8. Open yourself up to receive.
9. Practice forgiveness. Forgive yourself and others.
10. Have clear intentions.

A Coaching Lesson: We all need coaching

by

One of the reasons I coach is because it inspires me to be better and move myself forward. I also read many self-help or self-improvement books. I have a desire to continue to learn and grow as a life coach so I can be the best that I can be to support my clients.

My colleague, Stacie René, recently released her first book, Positive Shift Ahead!: If things aren’t going your way, redirect yourself! Besides wanting to support a fellow coach, I know as I focus on abundance this year that success is for all of us and I find that I can always gain at least something from each book that I read.

One of the takeaways from the book for me, was to restart doing my daily affirmations or mantras as she refers to them. I have been using three daily affirmations focusing on 2020 consistently since the first of the year. And they have made a big difference in my life.

Between the affirmations and a few rules for limiting choices that I have implemented, I find myself in a different spot today than I would have without them.

Your life coaching sessions with me will assist you to incorporate choice and affirmations into your life. Contact me for a free introductory coaching session.

 

The Paradox of Choice

by

I have said it before, choice is the secret to moving yourself forward….one choice at a time and one day at a time.

In discussing choice, we also need to consider the option of too many choices. In his post, The Paradox of Choice: How Less Freedom Makes Us Happier, Dean Yeong suggests that limited choices provide more freedom.

To that point, as you are setting goals or adopting new habits, you can make rules for yourself, or limit your choices. For example, if you are working a weight loss or improving your eating habits, you could limit your choices by having the guideline that “I do not drink soda pop” or “I choose not to eat fried foods”.

Either way, choice is the secret to success.

 

The Secret is Choice

by

Do you know the secret of success? It’s CHOICE.

In order to achieve success with your goals or dreams you need to make a choice to do something different. This has been made obvious to me already this year as I work through my word, abundance.

I can choose my thoughts; I can choose my actions and I can choose my environment. The important thing about choice is that we must make many decisions today that impact tomorrow and beyond.

For example, I have a choice today to work on my business to do list or I can watch a movie. Or I can choose to eat the piece of pie today but will that get me to my goal of a healthy weight?

Use your power of choice in your daily practices and achieve the success of your dreams.
