9-5 illusion

Stepping out of society's framework to take your own way

Many women in the coaching industry that I have spoken to about their own entrepreneurship beginnings have struggled to define their work structure. Things like

- How much should I be working?

We might feel free without the boss telling what and when to do certain things, but complete freedom leaves us unproductive, overworked, sleepless and burnt out eventually. Structured freedom is the way towards productive work if you want to achieve more in less time making the most income in that time frame.

- What is the best way to plan my day?

Without a clear plan, there will be a lot of multitasking, a lot of uncertainty, procrastination and tasks switching. Again, super unproductive. 

- With what to start?

 So often we have hundred ideas and hundred to-do tasks on our list. We want to do everything, because everything seems important, just to realize at the end of the day, that not much has been achieved.

All these are valid questions, concerns and occurring patterns that block potential.

It was easy to know what to do and when to do things when you had your 9-5, because you didn’t have to figure it all out on your own. There was someone who told you the rules. All you had to do was to follow them (even if you though that some them are nonsense, waste of time and completely stupid). 

"If we have 8 hours to fill, we fill 8 hours." - Agnese Rudzate

Our society is defined by a 9-5 framework, by perception that you have to work long and hard to be successful. And then, when you are working less and notice enjoying it, you kind of almost feel bad or ashamed so you hide it, doing meaningless stuff just to fill that time. Because that’s what you’re supposed to do!

Think real hard if you really need 8 hours to 

Do you need 8 hours to….

- become who you want to become?

- feel good about yourself, feel worthy?

- to show others how hard you work?

Or maybe it is the time you break those status que’s and start valuing your time for real!

Start focusing and doing ONLY what brings results.

Start prioritizing your most important tasks.

Start delegating tasks that don't require your genius.

Start decluttering your environment and mind to achieve results fast.

You don’t need 8 hours. Society needs you to work 8 hours so they can approve of you. Dare to challenge yourself and step outside your 9-5 mindset. 

What would you do with that extra time on your hands?

Would you start another project?

Would you spend more quality time with your family?

Would you travel places?

Would you dive deep into self-care?

Once you get clear on how you will fill your free time, it becomes your best motivation to create that for yourself. 

Give me a YES, if you want or are stepping out of society’s perceptions of what valued work should look like!

I would love to hear your experience starting your journey and braking status quo.

4 step method to help you decide if you should call a meeting

It’s truly life-changing once we start to honor our time and stop wasting it on activities that serve us very little. One of those activities are meetings. If you’re a coach who is on their way to level up, communication with your team is your daily necessity. However, there is a big difference between time well spend and time well wasted.

Declutter your home for well deserved clarity

Declutter your home for well deserved clarity Agnese Rudzate organizing blog

Declutter your home for well deserved clarity

The space where we spend most of our time affects our mood, energy, productivity, focus etc.

Before I dive in to the importance of our personal space, I wanted to mention that I am personally very passioned about helping more women to become more comfortable and confident, by decluttering home and mind so they could become, basically unstoppable. And yes, I believe that our mess in our space (home, office) does affect our ability to think clearly, to work efficiently, with productivity and ability to focus on what is important. So, yes, it does affect our whole LIFE!

In the title I added well deserved, because we need to realise that we are worthy and deserving of all the good things that came, are coming and will come in to our lives and that would include, clarity, peace of mind, relaxation  or what ever that is for you. 

1. How organized space can take you to the next level?

Let me repeat myself to emphasize how important this is: your space and that would be the physical place where you spend most of the time, reflects on your life. It could be your home, your work place, your office.

The environment where you are creating your dream life is supper important and therefore in that place should only be things that make you happy, lifts you up, helps you get centred and focused. And once you have that, you will flow with ease, inspiration will come effortlessly which will make you calmer, not worried, more grounded and peaceful. And that is everything!

“Your personal space reflects on your life.” - Agnese Rudzate

But don’t forget that you need to find what works for you. I always say that not everything is for everyone, you need to find what works for you. And that is the beauty of it, because we are all so unique in our dreams, needs and abilities.

Now when there is so much information hitting us on every corner, there are so many distractions out there, but most importantly in here (our mind), it doesn’t let us to focus. 

Surely the mess on your working desk doesn’t help you concentrate. When you are moving the papers around, trying to find that one where you wrote that important thing so you would not forget it. It wastes your time and energy. That precious time and energy that you could spend on creating your dream life instead of reorganising your desk trying to get some work done. This is how you loose your productivity, your efficiency. 

2. What is clutter and how it keeps you stuck?

Clutter is something that keeps us stuck in a way that it doesn’t let the energy change in your home, because all of those things are not serving you any more, but they are still there. And if something doesn’t serve you, it serves someone or something else. But you want, or should want, is to surround yourself with things that makes you feel better, are there when you need them, serves their purpose, makes your life easier.

Its like with people. If you want to grow and evolve, you can’t surround yourself with people that constantly moan and bring you down. The same is with your space. If something is bothering you – take it away, give it to someone who will appreciate it, give it to charity, recycle. There are so many options!

But for some the problem is not giving stuff away as much as it is to knowing which stuff to give away. What I have noticed is that people can’t define what is the clutter for them. For each and everyone of us it might be a different thing.

While there are some items that are quite obviously a clutter, like expired medicine, broken plates, dead batteries, there are also those that we keep for what ever reason and might not realise that they are still things that serves us no purpose what so ever.

If whenever you are in doubt I have a 5 question solution for you.

By answering them you will get very clear very quickly on what stuff needs to leave your space.

3. How Cleared space effects you, your work, your productivity.

Once I declutter, I have immediate sense of relief and freedom. I have more space to breathe and create. My advice to you is to declutter first, before you dive in to organising, reorganising, tidying up, cleaning. 

 

“The less stuff we have, the less distractions are taking our attention away, which means we can focus on what is important to us.”

You may say that while you are clearing, organizing, tidying up you will not get any work done. This is very true. But when you do get to work, you will be more productive than ever. Because there won’t be a thing that takes our focus away!

You probably have heard of a saying: Where focus goes, energy flows. So make yourself a distraction free place where you can focus on what is important.

Please don’t get me wrong, I am not saying that you should take everything out of your office and sit in a white box so there is nothing else you can focus on except your computer screen to be the most productive.

If your work space is important to you for creating that life that you want, it’s important that you feel what ever you want to feel in there.

Weather that would be super productivity, calmness, maybe relaxation or motivation. Choose what works for you, experiment, try to get rid of couple of things today that no longer serve their purpose and see how the energy shifts.

But I have to say that while organizing and decluttering has a very immediate effect on your mood, there are more things that can help you lead you to a place of ease, peace and clarity. And here I would just like to mention some of them that I have found very useful myself.

4. Other great practices to clear your mind

You have probably hear of meditation and it’s endless benefits. 

Also I can suggest to keep yourself away from internet for 1 day a week to have that time for yourself, your family, because you need to regenerate to dive in the next day with full force. #unplugyoursef

Writing is another great way to clear your head and get to know yourself better and finally, movement. Your brain needs oxigen, your posture will highly benefit from a bike ride, yoga or other way in which you choose to move you body. 

More about above mentioned action you can take toward better mental clarity you can find out here

While we are all so unique, there are proven methods to help us get what we want, need and long for. Don’t underestimate your power and ability to get where you need to be. When ever you feel stuck, use decluttering as a peace making practice to instantly shift energy and feel more free.

I hope this short insight in to decluttering benefits have given you confidence and motivation to move towards bigger clarity in your life.

Please let me know if there is another great practice that you have find beneficial for yourself, others might find it helpful as well.

Simple tips to help you gain mental clarity

Agnese Rudzate blog simple tips to gain mental clarity

Simple tips to help you gain mental clarity

How to get rid off worries and brain fog to gain mental clarity, gather thoughts and think straight

Our financial situation, trouble with health, annoying relatives, holiday planning, rejection from a client are just a few of things that can bring us to our UNHAPPY place.

Do you feel like your brain is too full of random stuff and you have no mental clarity, you can’t gather your thoughts because you’re constantly worried, ending up in this mental fog when you need your brain the most and too much clutter keeps you from thinking straight? Then this article will be of great use to you. Keep reading to find the right solution to declutter your mind, get back to your HAPPY place and stay there.

If you think that all the great genus minds don’t have your problems, think again. Surely each an every one of them have had an indecisive moments, confusing thoughts, inability to focus and worries that they can’t explain.

It simply happens!

But don’t get fooled, there is a solution. In fact, mental clarity is something you can gain fairly quickly. Use the tips bellow whenever you need to think your way out of a problem, make a compelling argument or stop the noise in your head to gain the clarity.

1. MEDITATE

Meditation is the closest way I have found to mental clarity, peace of mind and less stress – it simply works wonders. You have probably heard about its endless benefits, like sleep improvement, pain and blood pressure reduction, stress relief and so much more. For more benefits click here.

Stress is something that doesn’t allow us to be in the moment. If our mind is constantly wondering around, worrying about future or past, we are not able to think clearly. That causes a mental clutter that leaves us hopeless, intense and worried. When your thoughts circle around your problems, you don’t leave yourself with a lot of space for much else. Plus when your mind is full with clutter it works slower – your brain can only hold that much. No clarity possible there!

So what could be the solution to declutter that worried, foggy mind of yours? You guest it! Meditation, of course.

I can tell you from my personal experience that it creates this magical feeling of enough (enough of what you have and who you are), therefore you think (stress) less about what others think, what you don’t have enough of, future events that we are not able to predict or control and past events that are simply in the past.

One of the world’s leading expert on happiness and personal mastery, Srikumar Rao, teaches how we can eliminate stress and anxiety from our lives, think differently and in essence, become a radically different person in this 50 minutes video.

>>  Meanwhile I have prepared a challenge for you: 20 minutes of meditation every day! Take this challenge and notice how your thoughts, mood, mental health and life changes.      #20minutedailymeditationchallenge

Before you say that this is not for you, try it for 2 weeks. Even if you don’t like it, it is boring, you don’t have time… etc. I hear you, because I though the same – I could not sit still for 10 minutes. I could do it for a day or 2 and then I would quit, because there would be more important things to do. But let me tell you that nothing, nothing is more important that you! And that is a fact! Find that time for yourself and make it happen. Don’t wait until tomorrow to start. Start today and make it your priority to gain mental clarity. It is only 20 minutes, but those 20 minutes can change your life and only for better.

“You should sit in meditation for twenty minutes everyday - unless you're too busy; then you should sit for an hour.” - Dr. Sukhraj Dhillon

Being busy is relative. I’m sure you have time to scroll through Instagram, check your Facebook feeds and moan to your friend how unfair the world is. Imagine how life changing it would be if you would replace couple of these activities with some positive guided meditation to lift your mood, put you on a higher vibration and clear your head?

I have recently come across an article about sleep improvement using mediation and how to get started. You can read it here. 

Could you ask for more?

Yes.

And you should! Which leads us to the next point.

2. UNPLUG

We spend so much time on social media, on the phone, by the computer… We miss being present with someone sitting next to us. I believe that meaningful sit-down with a friend over a tea is more soul filling than commenting on someones Facebook post. Don’t get me wrong, there are connections that are important for our businesses and social lives and we need to pamper them. There is nothing wrong with saying thank you to a flattering comment or emailing an old friend. The problem is that we don’t get real work done, can’t focus on what is important because we constantly get distracted by those noise beeps on our phones. And I have to say that too much external stimuli clog up our minds. We get so cough up in the digital world that we forget how important human to human interactions can be.

That being said, I challenge you to drop all your electronic devices (phone, TV, computer, etc.) for 1 day a week to make meaningful connection with your loved ones or build new connections in a social gathering or activity of your choice. Treat yourself with no-distraction day and others with undivided attention to build long-lasting relationships.

Believe me when I say that the world won’t stop without your input, and you’ll be just fine without texting/calling/tweeting anyone for a day.

Agnese Rudzate unplug 1 day challenge clarity peace of mind

There is another important point I would like to mention, and that is making habits for yourself to stay focused, on point and respected, like not replying as soon as you get that beep on your phone with a new message. A great way to respect your time is to set aside specific time to answer any messages, emails and call people back. Like that you will be able to concentrate on your work and not get distracted by that beep every time you try to focus.

Yes, we all have commitments and obligations, but remember that YOU ARE IMPORTANT. You matter and everyone else can survive without you always being there. Focus on what is truly important to you and say no to the rest.

3. WRITE

Let me introduce you to couple of ways how writing can help you to clear your head. During our busy days we often don’t realise how much stuff we carry around in our heads trying to remember all those important tasks that we have made for ourselves to complete. And at the end of the day we get frustrated if we have forgotten something important. That is because we can’t remember everything and we should’t have to. The need to remember our to-do list takes our precious space and leaves very little room for clear thinking.

To clear your head of all those to-do tasks, make a list of reminders, unfinished business, assignments, meetings etc. for the day. Then read through your list and highlight the essential so you can focus on priority tasks. Like that you will do them, finish them and you will not think about other tasks until it’s their turn. And the bet part is that you can literally forget about them, because they have ben written down, so when you complete your essential tasks you can move on to others.

If you spend 5 minutes in the morning to write down you to-do list for the day, you will be able to free up your memory and focus on what needs to be done. This is a great relief and allows you to put your mental energy on what you need to accomplish. 

Writing exercise:

Take a pen and paper and for next 10 minutes write down whatever thoughts you are having. Write down all silly, ridiculous, funny and sad ones – everything that comes in to your mind. Notice thoughts popping in and write them down. Once you finish with one thought notice the next one and write it down and so on. If you are not sure how to start, close your eyes and wait for a moment. Your mind is not used to silence (not thinking), so all you have to do is to listen to your own thoughts. There is one rule to this exercise though: once you have written down one thought, go to the next one, don’t get caught up in it, don’t run off with its story, just write it down, let it go and move on.

After completing this exercise your will see more clearly what sorts of random thoughts your mind generates every day so you can become more self-aware. You will see very clearly how your mind jumps from topic to topic without a rest and is rarely not thinking. Let me remind here that meditation is the single most effective way to silence the mental chatter so you can have a mind with NO thoughts for a while to rest your brain and prepare it for efficient, meaningful, focused work.

4. MOVE

A great way for all physical and mental rejuvenation is movement. But if you add deep breathing and hydration, you are on your way to feel better than ever in no time.

Working long hours by the computer can have a damaging effect not only for your posture, eyes and overall physical health, but also on your mind. 

When you feel stuck, find a way to reboot yourself, find what works for you, weather that would be a walk, bike ride or yoga. Movement is important for your body and mind. Even if it is just for 10 minutes a day. Take that time for yourself. Make it your goal to stand up and stretch after a certain amount of time working – it will not only help your body to not have aches, but will let you focus on your tasks more clearly.

Since human body consist of up to 60 % of water, you can imagine how important it is for our overall well being. Staying hydrated is vital for your optimal brain function, so don’t forget to drink when you are thirsty. One of the best reminders is to keep a water bottle on your desk or where you can see it as an effortless reminder.

Another important thing for your mind to be in top shape is food – clean, real food. The goal here is to not get too hungry and avoid eating until you can’t move anymore to avoid mental fog.

I am a true believer that each person is unique and have their own solutions to their specific problems – one is not for all. Each and every one of us have to find what works best and keep taking the path towards mental clarity.

Now I would love to hear from you! How do you restore focus and clarity when you notice mental fogginess? Share in the comments below!

P.S. Please don’t hesitate to share this article if you think your friends or someone you know might benefit. Together we can bring more clarity!

Create a plan to move towards your dream and don’t get lost on the way

Agnese Rudzate organizing coaching productivity blog

Create a plan to move towards your dream

and not get lost on the way

I have come to experience that Planning is so freeing! Honestly! Things always work in my favour if I plan, because it keeps me focused on the end result and gives me clear directions of actions I need to take. But how to know where to start and what should be included so you could be assured  that it will work in your favour?

Planning might sound boring, because it is your time that you will have to spend by the desk with pen and paper rather than paddle boarding or scuba diving. I hear ya when you say: I have tried that, it is too much work! Here I have to say that planning is worth all your time and energy, because after creating a roadmap you will only have to follow it. So the more work you put in, the less effort it will take to pull through.

I am talking form experience when I say that if you do not have a plan you will not reach your goal. You do not need to plan every single tiniest step, however you have to highlight some bullet points to keep yourself on track and focused on the end result. But don’t take my word for it, hear what Benjamin Franklin has said: 

“By failing to prepare, you are preparing to fail.” Benjamin Franklin

And I so do not want that for you! So to get started let me explain how planning works. To make a plan you simply have to answer 4 questions: 

1. What is to be done? 

2. When is it to be done? 

3. How it is to be done?

4. Who is going to do it?

    1. And that is it! By answering those 4 questions as detailed as possible you will be a milestone closer to your goal. This template is so unique that it works with anything that you want to achieve, wether that would be to organise your kitchen or learn a new language. 

Let’s go through an example together:

Let’s say your work desk is a mess and you need to sort it out before you drown in inefficiency and debt. Your work desk is something really important to keep organized, because it is very obvious that a mess on your desk may highly affect your work quality and productivity. Have a look and notice what it on that desk, does it all belong there? If not, than it is time to organise it away. Here we have already answered the first question: what is to be done, meaning organising your work desk. Now you need to decide when it is to be done: here you will have to evaluate what is possible. Keep in mind that a desk is relatively small place, so it should not take too long, unless you have piles of papers until the ceiling that needs to be sorted out. So wether it would be an hour or a day, set that time frame and stick to it. Now you will have to decide how it is to be done – so, for example, you can take everything away from the desk, clean it completely and put back only the things that belongs there, the rest should go where it belongs.  Here I hope you have designated places for all your items.* Another option is to take away one thing at a time by finding the right place for each of it which will eventually leave you will only necessary stuff on your work desk. 

If you don’t have designated places for all your items it’s is time to evaluate your belongings and possibly get rid of some of them to clear your space from all unnecessary.

I truly believe that planning helps us take a step in the right direction. Don’t worry if you don’t know every single details, the first and most important step is to actually take a step and trust the process  – it will get you exactly where you need to be!

Please let me know how planning has helped you previously and is you are ready to follow these steps to plan your life towards your dream. Leave a comment below (I read every single one).

If you think someone else would benefit from this article, please share it and I hope together we can make your home, mind and life better.

How tidying up can help to change energy in your house?

Agnese Rudzate organzing clarity house energy clearing

How to change the energy in your house

to feel calmer and move towards clarity

Every one of us at some point in our lives have felt stuck, helpless and confused. While there are many things you can do to change that situation, they all take quite a time to see the first results. However there are many things you can do right now to change your mood by starting to change energy in you house.

Continue reading if you want to know how to turn negative in to positive. If you will pay attention to these suggestions and use them (or some of them) wisely in your home, you will notice immediate energy shift. In other words, you will feel calmer, more relaxed, because you will make the bad energy go out the window (literally). 

Here we go:

    1. Take a look around and notice of things that you surround yourself with makes you feel good? Maybe there is something that just drives you crazy every time you look at it? It might be a vase that was a gift years ago or painting that has a wrong colour palette. Every item in you house has it’s specific energy. You can tell if that energy suits you if it makes you feel good. Depending on that certain things can either give you power, strength and motivation or block it. You should not keep anything in house that does not give you a good feeling. Even if you can’t explain what is it with that vase that you do not find attractive, if it does make you happy, it is not right for you. 
    2. How often do you open the windows to let the fresh air in? The breeze that goes trough rooms changes the energy very quickly and not only gives you more oxygen, but also clears the space even if you don’t fiscally see it. Take a big deep breath in and let the fresh air surround you.

Let the fresh air in your home to instantly change the energy

3. Do you have dust on things where you can’t clean them of easily enough? High shelfs are the best dust and stuck energy collectors. If you are someone who really hates to clean dust (I hear you, because I am one of them too), there can be several solutions to make your life easier. For example, you can use decorative boxes, choose more closed cabinets instead of the open ones and use drawers. In other words, your worst enemy is open shelfs with too many things, because it just takes ages to clean each and every peace. 

To get some ideas, you can see my board on Pinterest:

4. There is one thing that all have us have had or have in our homes and it is broken, damaged dishes. These are also one of those things that like to stick to negative energy, so if it is permanently broken  – get rid of it. You also should not keep damaged vases, plates, glasses, clocks and other stuff. Take them out of your house and see how energy switches. 

5.   Essential oils can be a great help to change the mood, clear smells, calm the mind and switch to positive energy. Diffuser here can be of great use, otherwise you can use oils to your skin. Citrus, rosemary, lavender, eucalyptus, teeter oils will be your friends to get in to better mood.

6. My personal favourite things of all is to move furniture around. If your space allows that, it is one of the greatest changes you can physically make to completely get rid of all negative energy, because by moving things around, you don’t let them get stuck in one place. That doesn’t allow energy to get stuck there either. 

P.S. This works wonders with kids. They love to play around and by moving their furniture, you will create a completely new playground and make them so much more excited. 

There are other things that you can use to change the energy in your home if you are in to them, like crystals. Some of them are specially used to clear out negative energy. For example, BLACK TOURMALINE is a very powerful  stone that protects against negativity of all kinds, ROSE QUARTZ replaces negative energy with Positive. Choosing to put them next to your electric appliances you will nicely balance the energy. Other things to brighten up your space you could use are bells. As the sound vibrations disperse blocked energy, the sweet chimes work to uplift the fresh energy. 

Even if you don’t think that your house has a negative energy, it is worth to use one or more of my suggestions to clear your space anyways, because sometimes we get so busy in our lives, that we do not pay attention to things we don’t see.  We assume they don’t affect us and not knowingly we let them take over. Only once we see the shift in positive direction, we realise how bad it actually was before.  

I hope that my suggestions will help you to clear your space from that negative energy that inevitably accumulates in our homes.

But most people think that business coaching are the only way to make you more successful. And while it’s proven to help grow businesses, it’s not always the best option. Let me explain.

…not my problem – How rude!

…not my problem – How rude!

Pour yourself a cup of tea and be assured that you have done enough

I wanted to share the experience that I had at my previous work place with one of colleagues who worked at reception at the time. It made me think about our roles in helping others and how to know when you have done your best. When can you stop, breathe and move one because you are sure that there is nothing more you can do? 

My colleague was sitting behind reception welcoming clients and helping them with whatever struggle they referred to. She was one of those very honest (that is what I liked about her the most), straight forward and no BS girls. Above all she was someone who did her job very well and had no problem taking and completing more tasks during her shifts. 

One day there came a moment where it got too overwhelming by the counter – a client asked the same thing in different ways to get what he wanted. As a result she got very frustrated. You can explain client that you will not be able to hep only that many times, right?

"Not my problem!"

After saying that she closed down the counter window. At that moment I was taken back by her rudeness. This was not acceptable and I felt ashamed for her (in some way I felt responsible for her actions, because I worked in the company longer and was the one who explained her role when she started to work). However, since I came to really enjoy her company, dedication and commitment, it made me think WHAT CAN I LEARN FROM THIS? Was this attitude really that bad? Too straight forward for my taste maybe? In other words I basically started to make excuses for her in my own mind to look at this situation from other perspectives. 

You know what I came to realise? While her attitude was indeed not appropriate, we all sometimes come to the point when enough is enough and we need to start to take care of ourselves first in order to help others.

Fill up your cup first, so you can overflow and share. 

All these excuses made for her lead me to think about my own life – how many times I have people pleased, not giving myself a chance to slow down and be in peace that I have done enough. Learn form my mistakes. I can now with confidence say that:

      1. I can not solve all the worlds’ problems. We need to know our place in the world and own it. While I am so grateful for the experience that corporate world has given to me, working in service type industry just drains my energy. All different kinds of demands, requests (not always in the politest way, of course) that you are not able to fulfil just makes you feel like you are not good enough.
      2. I am enough. You do not need to scroll down your Instagram and look at those beautiful photos of perfect life’s of others and dream of having the same, because only you have the strength, power and skill set to create your life the way you want. 
      3. The time is now. Unless you start to do something about becoming self-aware, confident, enough, nothing will change. And I am talking form experience. I use to get all fired up about doing workout that my app notified me of and would decide to start next Monday or next month, but when that day came, I didn’t pull through.  You know why? Because I didn’t put myself first, I always had more important things to do. But no more!

What does it have to do with organizing, de-cluttering, tidying up, you may ask. EVRYTHING! The more confident you will feel to let things go emotionaly, the easier it will be for you tho let things go from your house. 

Make a promise to yourself right now and say it out loud:

Agnese Rudzate I am enough clarity organizing your life
Pin it!

And don’t let anyone, anyone tell you otherwise. If they do, it is just lack of their own worthiness. 

I truly hope that you will not waist any time and start the change right now, so you can thrive and fill the world with those special gifts that only you have. 

Don’t be shy to share this article if you have found it helpful or think that some one else might benefit by reading it. 

I wish you strength  and confidence to take that time for yourself and fill up your cup.

My lightbulb moment *Personal

MY LIGHTBULB MOMENT* PERSONAL

How come that some lightbulbs hits you like a rock while others seem to never arrive.

This as a story about my lightbulb moment, kind of… You are wondering why kind off? For so long I have wished for a miracle, some sudden falling start to come upon and enlighten me, but it just didn’t happen in they way I was expecting it to – with sudden/ out of nowhere realisation.  

Since I remember myself I have been a planner, I liked structure and I believed that organizing our private space the right way can help us achieve anything we want, weather that may be love, money, heath… you name it! Surely clutter would not help here – it simply doesn’t let new energy  come in to our lifes and change it for better. 

But lets starts from the beginning…

I am honestly the most organized person I know in. Well… maybe I don’t know that many people :). But because I consider myself organized, I have realised that  I just notice other peoples clutter and that was driving me crazy for a while and let me elaborate.

Whenever I used to go to someones home I could see straightaway the clutter they kept, the disorganisation of their stuff and the stuck energy all it held. Then I would compare it to their lives and I could see some common areas which has made me curios since then. In my mind I would get rid of that and enjoy the free space created. However in real life it is not all that simple.  I can, orfcourse, do what ever I want in my mind, but when it comes to actually talking to people about maybe, possibly getting rid of some of it, there is a huge resistance, simply because they just like their stuff!

And this made me even more curios of to what is is that keeps people so attached to their belongings. Is it simply because they like their stuff? Well…  not entirely. As it turns out there are layers and layers of emotions that make us attached to stuff we have, not even talking about physical needs of them (or at least we think we need it all).

Now I look at my things quite sceptically and try my best to keep only what makes me happy, but I know the feeling of attachment, because I have been there too. Resistance have played a huge part in my life as well. I resisted what I feared from and kept attracting more things that I did not wished for (at least not consciously). Mostly I resisted changes because I was afraid of letting go. But I can tell you one thing  – it didn’t serve me. This is why I can surely say that it is not serving you too! But don’t worry, I am here for you and will lead you every step of the way to your new path.  

I have made a conscious decision to not let fear stop me and keep me stuck anymore. We all know way too well that “What you resist persists”, and this is something we neither wan’t or need. 

Only you have the skill set, talent and power to create what you most want.

My journey started when I looked back at my life – my strengths, my weaknesses, what have I achieved, what is important to me. And… I realised something that seemed quite not that important at first, but what turned out bigger than I expected: I lived abroad and visited my family twice per year. When ever I used to go home or on vacation, for this matter, I would plan my trips very detailed – book necessary appointments, fit in all I wanted to do in that amount of time that I had. And you know what? I achieved all that I had planned out… I was wondering if this would be something to apply in my daily life to achieve greater things. So I did just that- organized my life towards success. 

And I am here to help you do the same! My biggest advice to you is to notice when the lightbulb moment hits you and do not ignore it for your life. DO NOT BE AFRAID and wonder too much what others will think. I know it is easier said than done, but once you actually start practicing that, it will change your life FOREVER! And please don’t be upset if your lightbulb moment hasn’t arrived. Rest assured that it is on it’s way and who knows, it might slide in as calmly as mine. 

Comment below if you wish to share your “lightbulb moments” to inspire others. I read every single comment. 

Best of success, 

Agnese
