Do you ever feel that your world is spinning out of control and you are unable to take control of it? Do you feel more overwhelmed in your home or your office? Did you know that it could be caused by the number of things you have around you? It is true. A cluttered living space can hinder your thought process. Therefore, it is a very good idea to work on creating a minimalistic consciously aware living space if you want to get ahead on the things that you do.
The Impact of Clutter
How often do you go to your kitchen and see dirty dishes all around? Would you want to start cooking a good wholesome meal in the mess? Most likely the answer to that question is, “No.” You wouldn’t want to work in a dirty kitchen because half the dishes you would need for meal preparations are dirty. It is also unsanitary to have that kind of mess in your home. The same can be said for the desk at the office that is overflowing with stacks of paper that you must somehow find the time to sort through, your bedroom where you should be able to go to relax, and even your vehicle where you may spend time traveling with your family. Clutter is hard to navigate through. It can make you feel overwhelmed by the sheer number of things you have to do. The best way to eliminate the mess is to clean up and take the steps that may be required to help you simplify future cleaning.
Take Control of Your World
If you have an area in your home that always seems to stay dirty, you are not going to be able to enjoy being in that space. Let’s look at your desk at home. Is it a good place to scroll through social media accounts or do you always feel the need to clean it when you sit down to relax? Your desk should be free of clutter with only the things that you enjoy having nearby there. In your kitchen, you should walk in and feel that you could prepare a wonderful home cooked meal, not that when you walk in your counters are dirty or the floor needs to be mopped. If your counters are the problem, use a countertop primer and make them brand new. If it is your flooring, find a way to give it a makeover. You will feel so much better about being in that space, you will enjoy having family time in your kitchen even more.
Live Life to the Fullest
You only have one life to live. No one should spend it wishing they had a cleaner or a better home than what they have. If you take a little time to organize your living area, make it easier to clean up, and give away the things that clutter up your home; you will finally be free to enjoy your uncomplicated life. You will no longer feel that you have to leave work to go to work at home. Can you think of a reason not to try?
