...clearing clutter from your mind, body and space
If it doesn’t fit, why are you still holding on to it?
This question could be about your clothes or things or your beliefs.
Just because something fit into your life in the past, if it no longer fits, let it go and move on. Holding on to things in the past just because holds you back. If you want to move forward, let go of what no longer serves you.

When going through change, trusting in yourself can help you achieve success and limit anxiety.
Self-trust as a reliance on one’s own ability to handle life.
Self-trust is the mindset that ‘whatever comes my way, I will be able to handle it.’
Here are some tips to build trust in yourself:
• Set reasonable goals
• Be kind to yourself as you would to a friend
• Acknowledge your achievements
• Spend quiet time – just be
• Build on your strengths
• Forgive yourself of the past or mistakes
• Let go (of fear)
• Decide and move on
• Acknowledge that ‘when I am calm and relaxed, I make good decisions’
• Follow your heart/intuition
• Know your intentions
• Practice integrity
• Use positive self-talk
• Focus on attitude or “if you think you can…’
• Be willing to take risks
• Practice self-care
• Reward yourself
Trusting yourself is one of the most supportive things you can do for yourself. It can help build your confidence, allow others to trust you more, and make the process of decision-making much easier. To trust yourself, all you need is to make a little effort, create self-love, and find the ability to self-reflect and then step into the life you are dreaming of.
When we think about changing our habits, we usually decide to break bad ones. What if instead, we focused on making positive habits?
How would that shift in perspective change things for you?
Instead of:
…not drinking soda, you would drink beverages that nourish your body.
…not eating dessert, you would limit dessert to once per week or focus on fruit for dessert.
…not sitting on the coach anymore, you would move your body for 30 minutes five days a week.
Using positive statements…really affirmations… can change the tone of your intentions and probably your success.
So, what new habit do you want to incorporate into your life?
Connecting is all about being present, mindful and curious. My intention for 2018 to connect has been insightful. And I am grateful for all that I am learning through this process. It has reinforced the idea of life as a journey and it being about blending not balance.
And it continues to come down to daily choices. What is your choice for today?
