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!

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.”

Tweet

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.

Get organized to save money

Learn how highly disorganisation in your personal space and mind affects your financial situation and learn solutions to turn that around

If you have read my previous blogs and are familiar with my work, you have noticed what emphasis I put on our personal space and how it affect us. I have spoken over and over again about how our organized or disorganized physical space impacts our mood, energy, thoughts, stress level and many many more things, in one (or three) words, our overall well being.

If you have not realised that before, I would like to open your eyes on this subject in hopes that you can highly improve your financial situation by getting more organized, because our personal space reflects on our life, like does our thoughts and actions, so let’s make it count and create that life we want!

Let me elaborate and introduce you to couple things that does affect your financial situation. To help you deal with those nasty habits that block money from coming in, I have added also solution to every situation.

1. MISPLACING

It can be quite frustrating when you need something, but can’t find it, because you or someone else have misplaced it. It could be done unintentionally because of rush, ignorance or maybe things get misplaced, because they don’t have a designated place! I can tell you that if a thing is not in its place, it could be anywhere. But most importantly you loose time searching, which leads to all kinds of problems – frustration, mood changes, nothing important gets done etc, etc. This is why it is so important to designate places for what is important, because it is what will make your life easier, more convenient, less stressful. Surely you can agree that misplacing things you need can highly affect your mood and the overall energy. Meaning, if you are operation in low vibration, your will get exactly that in return. Don’t think for a second that being angry, disappointed, mad, frustrated will make cash flow in to your wallet.

It will make life easier for you and your family members, because it is much easier to organise your life once you know where things are when you need them.

2. MESS

You are constantly wasting your precious time while looking for things that you need in that moment. That precious time and energy that you could spend on creating that life of your dreams. But instead you reorganise your mess every time you need to find something. The old saying that Time is Money could not be more relevant here. Your time is valuable and you should treat it accordingly. Respect your time and it will respect you. There is no such thing as too little hours in a day. There is just the right amount. The question is, how wisely are we using it?

To show you the road map, listen to my free audio training of haven’t done so already. There you will learn clear guidance where and with what to start to keep your order in place long term.

3. MULTITASKING

When your are trying to do everything at the same time, the truth is, that nothing meaningful gets done. Here I can speak form my experience, because I am a multitasker. Not that it is something bad. In fact it can work in your favour many times, however when it comes to work, it’s not the best solution. Sure, you can paint your nails and talk on the phone while watching TV, but listening to the podcast while trying to focus on your to-do list will not work. I had to learn how to control this habit and make it work in my favour. And I have to say that it is easier said than done. If you are a multitasker like me, embrace it, instead of trying to quite this special power. By that I mean, make the most out of it in the situation where it is absolutely necessary, but when it comes to your work, try and focus on one thing at a time. Because once we loose focus and get distracted it might not be as easy to go back to that state of inspiration and effortless work flow. Believe me, I have been there (many times).

Us women like to multitask, but by trying to do everything at the same time, will only lead you to burn-out and frustration. And eventually the quality of your work will lower and money flow will suffer.

4. STRESS

This nasty little inner peace wrecker doesn’t let us be in the moment, in the “now”. Sometimes it is so quite and almost invisible that we barely notice that it is even there. That is until we our eyelid starts to shake, our heart pumps too fast and we can’t not shake that pen or leg. If our personal space distracts us and highly affects our focus, it also affects our productivity and efficiency and eventually the money flow. So get to work and make your work space neat and distraction free. If that alone is not enough and you would like profound, long lasting results no matter the environment you are in, there is a great way to make that happen.

#20minutesdailymediationchallenge is something I highly recumbent doing. I know that you might think that you don’t have time for this, your might be too busy, in that case, you should meditate for and hour daily. Don’t rush in to it, move slowly, but do it consistently, this is where magic happens.

5. CLUTTER

If you are living within clutter it means you are either purchasing things you do not need, or you are not treating the things you have with the respect they deserve. Then tell me, why should the universe, or whoever you believe in, trust you with more money, when you don’t respect the money that you have been given. You have to realise that more money brings more responsibility, which means that in order to earn that money flow, start to respect and appreciate what you already have. Be grateful and thankful for what has been given to you until now and every time you buy something new, buy it with respect.

Clear your home, make space for new things to come in to your life, that would also include money. If you want to start right now, read my other article on Things you can get rid of right now here.

I want you to take a bid deep breath and take a moment to think through what you have just read. It is important that we look at our physical space with clear head, because only then we see things for what they are. You don’t have to feel like you have already lost this battle. All the solutions mentioned above are doable and believe me when I say that only you have that power, skill set and talent to make your personal space bring out the goddess you are.

You are powerful and more capable than you think. Now you just need to go and do it 🙂

I hope that together we can help more women to get their personal space together by sharing decluttering tips, advices and actions to take towards clarity and confidence.

THINGS YOU CAN GET RID OF RIGHT NOW

Tidy 4 main areas in your house and enjoy the freedom

I am a true believer that clutter takes the best out of us and blocks new energy to come in to our lives. This is why it has been so important in my life to de-clutter from time to time to create that precious space for new opportunities. It is great if you do a spring cleaning, however I encourage you to take that action monthly and see how your world changes. I am suggesting this because the more we do it, the more we get rid off, which means that there will be less distractions in our already busy lives.

First time de-cluttering might seem like you are throwing away a lot of things, most probably things that you obviously don’t need anymore, for example junk mail, expired medicine, stained clothes. However once you get yourself in to habit of de-cluttering your stuff frequently, you will be able to see more clearly what you really need therefore getting rid of more and more each time. Trust me, before you know it, you will be left with nothing but everything that you truly need so you can focus your mind on what is important to you.

Clutter in nothing but an energy block. It is time to clear your home and mind.

Tweet

I would like to start with Living room as it is a common area for clutter to shop up as everyone in the family are using this room, including your guests. Here are a list of things to get rid of right now:

- - Junk mail – unsubscribe from receiving them at all if all you do is look at them and put aside after receiving.
  - Old magazines – you have read them, give them to someone who haven’t.
  - Books you’ve outgrown – it is time to give them second life – donate.
  - Stained or worn throw pillow covers and trows – they just do not look pretty anymore.
  - Broken pens and markers – what is the use of that?
  - Filled notepads and notebooks – they are filled.

Let’s continue with your Kitchen since this is the place, I believe, most hard to organize, because there are just so many things, places to hide things and things in to things. But let’s start with couple of obvious items that have served their time in your kitchen:

- - Expired coupons – there is no need for those anymore, right?
  - Plastic lids or containers that don’t have a “friend” – it is hard to use them without their best half.
  - Unused cookbooks – give them to your friends or someone you know would appreciate them.
  - Expired foods – obviously, right? You do not want to get food poisoning.
  - Chipped or damaged dishes – you will not have space for new things if you keep piling up the old ones.
  - Unused flower vases – yes, I know, we keep them to use some day, but be real here – you only need couple.

Moving on, let’s go to you Bathroom and see what can be done there to make it less cluttered and more spacious. This is such an important place to keep tidy as it is where you are getting rid of all the dirt and in my opinion you can’t clean yourself well enough in a cluttered space (it just makes no sense):

- - Expired medicine – no use of that anymore anyways.
  - Old makeup – using it might cause some pretty ugly consequences.
  - Old nail polish – unless you know some tricks to make it new again, get rid of it.
  - Old or stained towels – find another use for them, otherwise they don’t belong in your bathroom.
  - Hair accessories – they used to be in fashion, not anymore.

Last place I would like to point out in today’s blog is the place where you spend most of your time, the most precious time, because nothing is more important than a good night sleep. Yes, I am talking about your Bedroom:

- - Clothes that don’t fit – if they are in good condition, give them to someone in need.
  - Stained, worn, unused bed linen – your sleep will be much deeper knowing you are sleeping on good sheets.
  - Stained or worn clothes – you will not wear them anyways.
  - Mismatched and worn socks – believe me, you will feel much better once they are out of your closet.
  - Broken jewellery – let’s be honest, you will never fix them.

Now when you have an actual list where to start from, I suggest you do not waste any time and get to work ASAP, because only you can create that space that best suits your needs.

I hope that this post have helped you to realise how many thing you have been keeping for no reason as they do no have real use in your life.

If you have found this article useful, please share your thought below to inspire others to clear their home as well.

Best of success,
