-What is ALL this *STUFF*-

Home, Office, and Car Clutter

(Excerpts from What is ALL this STUFF-Home Clutter

Teleclass and Workshop).

Clutter and chaos in your bedroom could be the reason you wake

up with a headache, a stuffy nose, or runny eyes.

Maybe you feel stressed out, depressed, fatigued, or distracted

when you wake up to all your clutter and chaos.

We spend 1/3 of our lives in our bedrooms. A place we go to to

find solitude, peace of mind, and slumber. But how can you expect

to get a good night sleep or to awaken with vitality and energy with

all that clutter facing you?

~~ What's the first thing you see when you wake up in the morning?

~~ Is it piles of clothes, books, newspapers, and mail all over the place?

~~ Are you stepping on and tripping over stuff on your floors?

~~ Do you just want to pull the covers over your head and stay in

bed rather then face all that clutter and chaos?

Let your world stop for 15 minutes and announce to the world,

"This is the day I'm going to make a change in my life." Jump out

of bed, throw back the curtains, open the shades and windows

(yes, even if it is 20 degrees outside!), turn off the news, crank up

some music and do the Toss In Box!

Get a box (a garbage bag will also work) and pick up everything off

the floor and do the Toss In box! (TIP: Don't stop and dawdle over

any items, we'll do that later).

Feel the energy?

Hip Hop over to the dresser, bureau, makeup table, and nightstands

and take everything off that you don't use daily or nightly and do the Toss

In Box!

Feel the adrenaline?

Waltz on over to your sitting area, chaise, or clothes valet and

take it ALL off and do the Toss In Box!

Now, doesn't your bedroom feel better already? DON'T YOU feel better?

Grab 10 more minutes, another box, a garbage bag, your car keys and

sprint out to your car. Tune into your favorite radio station and

do the Toss In Box. Get rid of everything that you don't use daily

(please keep your emergency equipment). Get rid of everything that you

don't need. Don't forget to check under the seats, in the glove

compartment,

and the trunk.

Forget about those boxes for now. Get ready for work and with a song in

your heart, another box, and garbage bag zip off to work.

When you get to the office take another 10 minutes and proclaim to your

co-workers that you are changing your ways. Go into your office, cubicle,

or workspace and start doing the Toss In Box.

Okay, now reality starts to sit in. You still have a lot of work to do

because

you have to go through ALL that STUFF! Don't panic, I'm still with you.

Decide which of your boxes is the most important box to attack first.

Set a date and time that you can start sorting through ALL that STUFF.

What's that I hear, "But I don't have time." You have to FIND the time.

Make an appointment with yourself and keep it, just as you would go to

the doctors or attend a meeting.

Decide on a reward you will give yourself when you finish sorting your box,

such as a new outfit, tickets to the theatre or ballgame, or my favorite, a

chocolate milkshake.
