For over 20 years, I have been speaking on the subject matter of organizing. Although the topic of wellness is now in the forefront, I still circle back around to the benefits of living an organized lifestyle. Yet, it doesn’t seem to matter where I speak, who is in the audience, or how I broach the subject matter, there is always something heavy on people’s minds.
That heaviness I believe derives from the perplexity of clutter. Most people are constantly battling the war on clutter without success. This leaves them feeling defeated, overwhelmed and downright exhausted. It begs the question, over and over, What’s the secret to curing clutter?
Take yesterday for example. I was speaking at the Health Expo in New York and people wanted to know the answers to many of these questions:
How do I get a handle on my stuff?
How can I clear out my clutter for good?
Why does my clutter come back?
Why does my clutter get the best of me?
So I told them the truth about clutter. Before I explained what that truth was, I said that most people probably have heard it before and others may not like what they are about to hear. But that doesn’t mean it’s not the truth.
You see, there really is a way to curing clutter. But it’s not what most people think.
The reality is, that most of us go outside ourselves to seek the answers to our questions. We have a difficult time believing that the power we need to be successful is within us. So we blame outside circumstances on our inability to win the battle and continually look for the secret elixir that is going to cure the clutter.
The truth is … the cure for your clutter is well within our grasp.
It all starts by first acknowledging that clutter is ruling our life. And if we want the chaos of clutter to stop, we must see this as something that is very important in our life. When something is truly important, it ranks as a high priority for us to take action. That action then requires follow-through until the completion stage.
The problem is, however, that most people find this extremely difficult to do. They lack the follow-up skills that are necessary. The good news is, just like organizing, it is a skill set that can be learned. But again, just like organizing, in order to be successful, you need to have SUPPORT.
