What’s not serving you?

Friday, November 26th, 2010

This weekend I have a question for you – what’s no longer serving you?

Sometimes we keep on doing things simply because we’re in the HABIT of doing them and not because they actually serve us anymore.

Let me explain.

You go through a really busy period at work and work until 6pm every night. After that, it’s become a habit so you continue to do so EVEN THOUGH there’s really no need.

But it’s no longer serving you.

You could be enjoying the extra time at home with your family, exercising, taking up a new hobby, etc.

Or you might have a bookshelf full of books you don’t like or need to have.

It’s no longer serving you.

Or you have piles of baby clothes that your children have outgrown and you know full well you’re not having any more childrn.

They’re no longer serving you.

One more…you have 5 sets of bed linen for your guest bedroom. You have guests twice a year and never even get past set 3 on the shelf.

That’s no longer serving you.

So this weekend, my challenge to you is to jot down 3 – 5 things in your life that are no longer serving you.

And let them go.

They can be anything from kitchen utensils, crockery and table linen to old appliances to bad habits or time commitments.

Anything.

What’s no longer serving you?

This week’s organising challenge – declutter your bathroom toiletries

Friday, September 25th, 2009

I thought it would be fun to issue a challenge this week on something relatively easy to do – declutter your bathroom toiletries.

You all know that I have the smallest bathroom in the world so I don’t have enough storage space in there.

I use a drawer inside our bedroom to store excess bathroom toiletries.

This is my decluttered drawer….


and this is what I managed to declutter from the drawer and from the bathroom itself. 11 items


Right, over to you.

Are you up for the challenge? Let me know how many items you manage to declutter.
