Points to Ponder from Unclutter Your Life: Transforming Your Physical, Mental, and Emotional Space by Katherine Gibson
Our possessions say more about us than any resumé. The love of things can eclipse the love of life. We can inject new life into unused things by gifting them to others. Studies show that people who work in disorganized spaces send up to eight hours a week looking for things. When the work we do becomes an expression of our humanness, when it reveals who we are, when it resonates with passion and our deeper self, all things are possible. Encourage your children to fulfill their dreams, not yours. When a relationship lacks harmony, trust or respect, when we feel anxious, or are belittled or betrayed, than someone or something is out of tune. Reframe how you see your imperfectionsinner ones as well as those in the mirrorand question the standards that measure personal worth, success, and yes, even beauty. Worry is a state of indecision. Seek solutions. When we release clutter, we receive clarity. Money cant buy yesterday. When we appreciate what we have, the need for more diminishes. Taking charge of our schedule, even under-scheduling our time, leaves space to become fully engaged in what we do with reduced pressure and added pleasure. By living purposefully we can create a life of immense contentment. Like selecting objects for our home, the sounds we live with should be useful, spiritually enhancing, or exceedingly beautiful. |
