Messy, right?
Holy crap, every time I went down to my basement to do laundry, I would have to step over & through some of this.
There is a quote floating around out there that says “How you do anything is how you do everything”<\/strong><\/em>
I’ve been stepping over messes like that since I moved in late last summer.<\/p>\nIt’s interesting to think of the carry-over messes that it potentially created.<\/p>\n
What other messes am I not doing anything about?\u00a0 Hmmmm….<\/p>\n
This past weekend was the Victoria Day long weekend up in Canada & I didn’t have the kids.\u00a0 I took this opportunity to do a good cleanup + organization.<\/p>\n
It felt sooooooo gooooood!\u00a0 Now, when I walk by the area, I feel relieved, I feel lighter.<\/p>\n
I’ll leave you with a couple questions for you to consider…<\/p>\n
\n- What messes do you have in your life right now?<\/span><\/li>\n
- Why do you think you are avoiding them?<\/li>\n
- What are 3 steps you can take to start clearing up your messes?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
That’s all for today.\u00a0 Enjoy the rest of your day.<\/p>\n
Now go git cleaning.<\/p>\n
