“Dividends” of the “Investment” of Tidying
What does your Ideal Lifestyle look like? Why do you really want to become organized?
I get it. Tidying, organizing, decluttering, downsizing - it all takes TIME. It takes EFFORT. It can take money, if you decide to hire a professional organizer as a guide through the process. All of these things are an investment.
So what makes it worth it?
Focusing on that end goal: your ideal lifestyle.
How do you want to FEEL after you're done organizing your possessions? What do you want to see in your home? What do you want to wake up to? How do you want your home to smell? What do you want more time to be able to pursue? What kind of “dividends” do you want from the “investment” of tidying?
When I start with a new client, I have them visualize their ideal lifestyle. This can include creating a vision board, a Pinterest board, or journaling. I have created a worksheet for my clients as a guide, as well!
Some examples from my own Ideal Lifestyle:
Less screen time
Feeling a sense of community where I live
Cooking more
Time with friends and family
More gratitude!
Unearthing your ideal lifestyle from clutter can be messy, yes, but I promise that once we get to the end, it will all be worth it!
