What do decluttering and organizing have in common? They're both projects, right? This means to be your most effective you need to put on your project manager hat. 

Why? Because one of the biggest threats to any project is scope creep. It's something project managers are always on the lookout for. It's the leading cause of project failures.  If you've ever started a decluttering or organizing project but didn't finish, it's likely scope creep was part of the problem. Listen in to hear what it looks like and what to do about it.

Decluttered By Design - The Silver Lining To A Covid Holiday Season
play

12/01/20 • 8 min

This is the perfect year to declutter your holiday traditions. If you've been yearning to try something new, this is your year, thanks to the pandemic.

Now, I am not here to minimize what’s happening, things are serious. However, at times like this, I think it’s critical we don’t give up our personal power and allow ourselves to be fully devoured by the situation. ⠀

As trite as it might sound, we need to remember that in every crisis, there is opportunity. And it's up to us to seek it out and leverage it. From my perspective, this holiday season has endless opportunities to redefine what the holidays are about and clear away the clutter that shrouds the meaningful aspects. Listen in to hear just what I mean.

This episode focuses on a particular kind of emotional clutter. So often people feel bad about the things they struggle with. I don't mean bad about the struggle per se. I mean they feel bad about the *type* of situation they are struggling with. I'm talking about shame. It's born from a tendency we all have, and that is to compare our lives to others. When we compare our struggle to what we see others struggling with, we often invalidate our own struggle. Listen in to learn why you need to stop comparing and start acknowledging the validity of your struggle.

This mini-season focuses on bridging the gap between dreaming and doing. We're on episode 3 of 6 where we're learning why you must practice self-awareness and I'm sharing two ways to help you become more aware. One is specific to decluttering and will help you become more discerning about what you allow into your space. The other is will help you apply what you learn from any experience, so you can enjoy continuous improvement.
If you're long-time listener, I'll be back with a brand new season on September 1st, but I would wholly encourage you to listen, and maybe even relisten, to this mini-series, because it will help you lay a strong foundation for creating any kind of change you seek.
