Our environment is a major component in facilitating a beautiful life. I am an interior designer that cares about designing a beautiful life for myself and passing that desire and knowledge on to my clients. I want to make every aspect of my life, along with my environment, a place of peace and harmony.
Just a small action makes a difference. It’s important to surround ourselves with those things that we love and remind us of the good experiences we’ve had in our lives. I’ve made a pact with myself to finally clear away any of the clutter in my life that’s been holding me back from fulfilling my goals and dreams. I started small with the craft closet that I have under my stairs. Just that small action has lifted a weight that I didn’t realize I was carrying. I feel lighter and excited to take on the task of re-evaluating what I’ve kept and what I don’t need any more.
The act of releasing… When I used to organize closets and cupboards, I would throw some things away or give them away but the majority of items I would keep. I’d just buy new bins or cute boxes to put them in. Now I realize that I’ve still been holding on to too much. I don’t need to keep those things that will never again see the light of day! I can get rid of more than I ever thought I could. I don’t need to be afraid that “I might need this someday.” The act of releasing it now is so important that buying it again in the future if I really need it, pales in comparison.
Letting go has never been so sweet! I already have some new projects in mind to use the items I’ve kept. Lots of creative things came to me as I saw the valuable pieces remaining. But I wouldn’t have thought of them until I cleared away the nonessentials.
Need help in simplifying your home and asking the right questions to keep the best and get rid of the rest? I contacted Carrie Greene at http://www.carriethru.com and took her Escape Your Clutter Boot Camp. This program helped me make the quick progress I was looking for.
