What are you putting off that would contribute significantly to your well being?
Today’s question comes from Tina Su, who in August of this year, did what so many of us say we’d love to do, but so few of us actually do: quit a great job to pursue a greater dream. In Tina’s case, this dream includes running Think Simple Now, the website for which she is the self-described Chief Happiness Officer, and which is packed full of a unique kind of inspiration: practical advice you can start acting on today. For an example of Tina’s work, check out her recent piece on why our obsession with doing too much is often what stands in the way of achieving what we want.
I recently moved into a new living arrangement, and have just returned from a trip abroad. All my things are in a semi-unpacked state in boxes and suitcases. Clutter gathered on every surface.
The task seems so overwhelming that I’ve been making excuses not to tackle it. Meanwhile, it’s been affecting how I feel. My outer state is a reflection of my inner state, and right now, my inner state is quite cluttered.
The solution is so simple, yet I’ve managed to avoid it for several weeks… until now. I’ve just created a plan for organizing my new living space and have broken the job down into manageable chunks. I will start executing the first chunk tomorrow. By taking baby steps everyday, I know that success is just a matter of time.
