DECLUTTER - BE 2022 Ready

2022 Ready

 

DECLUTTERING is another way to become 2022 Ready.

I recently suggested that you consider your BIG WORD to lead into 2022.

While you continue to ponder your BIG WORD, you could be DECLUTTERING.

 

Now, stop right there and get your head out of the drawers and cupboards.

Rather, start thinking about what you could do if you had less mess in your business.

 

What could you do with more space on your desk, and in particular, more space in your head?

 

For example, I’ve started DECLUTTERING in three areas:

MY INBOX – I’ve unsubscribed from 37 newsletters (across 3 email addresses) – please don’t take it personally, I’m starting afresh for 2022

MY EXPENSES – I’ve identified several unnecessary expenses, small monthly payments that have gone unnoticed for too long; paying them has become a habit.

MY CONNECTIONS – It’s contentious, however, letting go of those that don’t bring you joy might be messy, but necessary. Choose who you want to work with and for.

 

DECLUTTERING enables you to do more important, creative, valuable activities including rest and thinking.

 

Decluttering Queen, Marie Kondo, asks, What sparks Joy for you?

I know many who would not respond with reading emails, having performance conversations, and working 14 hours a day!

 

Over the next few days, question what you’re doing and determine how you can DECLUTTER some, part of or all of these activities.

 

Self-awareness, accountability, reflection and habit changing all contribute your practice of SELF-LEADERSHIP.

 

Become 2022 Ready with your BIG WORD and DECLUTTERING.
