Collect up all of the things you no longer want, need or are broken….put them all in the same place or the same room or the same shed.

Go through each item, you will keep it – because you use it or you love it, you will sell it – because it was expensive and you would like to get some of your expenses back, you will donate it – either to charity or to friends or family, or you will throw it away – responsibly.

Don’t pick it up and not make an immediate decision. As soon as it goes on the “not sure” pile it becomes clutter.

I currently have one room and almost all of a garage left to work through. The feeling of freedom after each bag of things leave the house is indescribable.

Start your decluttering today. You don’t have to do it all at once, but maybe a couple of items a day to start with, you will be surprised at how much momentum your enthusiasm picks up along the way. Have fun and enjoy the extra space!!

Is it so hard to be kind? to support people, keep their feelings in mind.

You don’t have to be everyone’s mate, just be considerate, respectful, no need to hate.

That person is somebody’s father or mother, son or daughter, sister or brother.

You may never see eye to eye, but when you see them just nod, maybe say “Hi”

Then walk on by.

You see, one small act of kindness just grows and grows, touching everyone with sparkle wherever it flows.

Today, be that person who smiles, who hugs, who is warm.

And do it again tomorrow until it’s the norm.

Don’t leave it all to someone else, you do it, you be kind.

Both for the well being of others and for your own piece of mind.

Todays task is simple, just be kind ❤️

I love my comfort zone. It’s like a cosy lounge with an open fire when it’s snowing outside. But, if you stay in front of the fire forever you will begin to take it for granted. How much better does that place feel after you have spent a few hours outside in the cold, building snowmen, throwing snowballs.

We all know someone who seems to forever live outside of a comfort zone, adrenaline junkies you admire but don’t really want to be. They have a lounge with a fire somewhere too, it’s just not in the same place as yours.

Today, think about stepping out of your comfort zone, even if it’s just a few steps, give it a go and just come back inside if it gets too much.

Take a look at the list of things you would do if you knew you wouldn’t fail, choose one…..what would be the first little step towards this goal? Do one thing today towards it, make a phone call, sign up for a course, read and research. You never know, your dream may just become reality.

I am currently reading The Code of the Extraordinary Mind by Vishen Lakhiani.

I love this quote here from Steve Jobs. Today, try and start thinking outside of the box. Life really was made up by people no smarter than you.

You can do anything you put your mind to.

Have a beautiful day x

So, you have been brainstorming, coming up with lists of the things you dream of doing. You have lists and notes and great ideas. Today I want you to think about the people you surround yourself with, the friends, the family, the colleagues. Some of these will make you feel great about yourself and some of them not so much. So, today start thinking about which ones you can do without, the ones who bring absolutely nothing to your life, the ones who laugh at your ideas, the ones who think they are better than you… Think about what they will bring for you when you start to talk about the dream you would like to bring to life, you need to be surrounded by people who will believe in you, people who, even though they think you are totally mad, will still help you out emotionally when needed. They are out there, we all take them for granted, but these are the people you need to keep close to you….the rest, if you don’t want to remove them completely, can remain acquaintances.

Surround yourself with good vibrations, everyone deserves this and especially you now that you have decided to make some changes. Be bold, be brave and cut some ties, some relationships were just not meant to be. Do it politely, do it with dignity, do it gradually if you would rather, but just start to do it. I already did this quite a while ago and it’s not so hard and surprisingly quite liberating.
