Create Inner Calm
Outer order helps facilitate inner calm. To maintain outer oder follow these highly effective solutions.
I’m so happy spring is on its way. Aren’t you? I get motivated to clean out, freshen up, and organize my home in the spring. I’m not sure why this time of year motivates me, but I get the urge to get rid of stuff. Let me share some examples.
Delete and Delegate
It’s easy to get stuck thinking we have to take care of things ourselves. What would 
happen if we shifted our mindset? What if we asked yourselves, “Where can we delete and delegate?” Are there tasks that we can delete from our to-do-list? Are there responsibilities we can delegate? Try it and see what happens?
Examples:
- Have someone else get stamps at the post office, return packages, or pick up prescriptions.
- Delete product review request and surveys that have been in your inbox for months.
- Have others wash, dry, and fold laundry.
- Toss pledges and money solicitations that you’re not going to donate to within the next 3 months.

Be a choosy consumer
Buy what you need and use what you buy. This leads to less material possessions, which means that there is less to organize.
