Close The Loop
There is a special overwhelm that is caused by open loops in your mind. Open loops are things that are mid-undertaking, halfway done, nearly finished, almost there, just need this final thing etc.
If you think of every task as having a start, middle and end - and it's not until you actually finish the task that you can close the loop.
One of the HUGE barriers to organisation with our clients are open loops. Often these loops are things like "I want to sell that item rather than donate it" and so the item sits for literally months and months because the loop is open but the overwhelm of the steps required to close it are too hard.
Learn today what an open loop is, why they're sabotaging your success and importantly how to close them (oh and the incredible benefits of closing your loops).

2 Factor Authentication
Today we explore how you can reduce impulse buying and remain intentional in your purchasing.
Think of it like adding 2 Factor Authentication (2FA) to your purchases. Basically you're making it just a little inconvenient for you to purchase things that might just end up as clutter quicker than you'd like.
Some ideas that might act as your 2FA
Have a time delay on purchases over a certain amount of money
Have someone else keep your Amazon password (not to control, but to make purchases somewhat inconvenient for yourself)
Unsubscribe from marketing emails so you're not being enticed to buy things you don't need
Uninstall shopping apps from your phone
