Running of out time?

I recently did a survey of friends and clients about what they wanted more of in their life. The answer came back loud and clear: more time to do what they want (be with family, friends, for sport, for me, for vacation etc. etc.). So, here are some suggestions on how to start creating the space in your life, to spend the time on what is most important to you.


How cluttered is your house, car, work area, life? How many things are there hanging over your head that you "should" do? How much energy do these things drain from you, day after day?


Each time you eliminate one of these "shoulds" and simplify your life even in some small, tiny, easy, way, you free up energy to be more positive, to put towards your goals, to be in the moment with yourself and others.


So, make a list of all that is cluttering up your life. Prioritise it into the following categories:

1. Easy to do and quickly done.


2. Easy to do but will take some time


3. Challenging to do and will take some time


4. Challenging to do and will take a lot of time!


5. Doesnt need to be done at all!

Start with the things in category one, the quick and easy stuff. This gives you traction, momentum, victory over the shoulds! Do one a day or a few a week. Keep going. And, from time to time, challenge if it really needs to be done at all...

Let me know how it goes (the good, the bad and the ugly of it!). Share with others what works for you.
