Abundance Found in Leap Year

by

Abundance is about looking at life and knowing that you have everything you need for complete happiness, and then being able to celebrate each and every moment on earth. ~Wayne Dyer

Wow! We get an extra day this year. Talk about abundance! Is this just another day for you or a special day?

For me this year, it is an opportunity to be grateful for all that I have and to use the day to accomplish something spectacular. I am using the day to work toward my vision for 2020. It’s an exciting feeling to think about the possibilities.

It’s all choice. There is that word again…CHOICE. What will you choose today? What will you make possible today? This year?

Give it Some Space

by

Are you uncomfortable with unused space? Why do we see an empty space and think it is unused? What is we considered space as freedom or opportunity?

Having more stuff and having stuff on every surface and in every space or area can manifest itself as clutter and overwhelmed or distract you. And the more stuff you have the harder it is to maintain an area; it isn’t relaxing to see and can create chaos.

On the flip side, a space left empty can give us peace of mind. It provides less distraction. It provides freedom and allows space for other things to come into your life.

What surface can you clear off today?

Memories versus Memorabilia

by

One of the reasons people have clutter is that their stuff is associated with memories. Your stuff is not your memory.

The past exists in your memories even if you discard and item related to an event, person or experience. When you discard an item, you are not throwing away your past, but making space for yourself and the possibilities.

If you forget a memory, maybe that is an okay thing for your to forget. Important memories will always remain. It’s the memories that we can recall without the aid of items that are important. Getting rid of our extra stuff or clutter, will enable us to start to remember the important things without being distracted by excessive stuff.

Today Not Someday

by

Why do you have clutter? Could one of the reasons be that you are living for someday and not today?

The reason most people have clutter is because it is difficult to make decisions about their stuff especially when the reason is “I may need it someday.”
So, if clutter is weighing you down and you are working to reduce your stuff, one question you can ask yourself is: “Does this serve me today?” If the answer is no, then toss, donate or sell the item as appropriate.

Many of us live in the future and, therefore, we have stuff related to someday. What if you used the present situation to help you make your decisions about your stuff?

I used that concept when I was in the store after the holiday. There was a great deal on bows and wrapping paper and I picked up some to buy for next year. And then in line I asked myself if I needed the items right now. Maybe I would need them next year or maybe not, but not today. If I bought the items today, I would have to store them and maybe not even use them next year. Therefore, I decided to not make the purchase. It felt good to make the decision based on the day instead of the next holiday.

Go ahead and try it.
