There is not much you can do about the outside world , the people in your job, or whether your boss will give you the raise you asked for, any of these things.
What do you have influence over? “Your clutter”
Declutter until you achieve some calm. Learn what you can control, and you will find more peace.
*Dust your desk and delete old files on the shared drive.
*Learn one email trick. Make your life easier so that your mind is just a little more clear.
What do any of the small gestures achieve?
Clarity & Control practices
What you accomplish is clarity over what you control. While we assume things will never fall apart, they do anyway. Decluttering can give you minutes or hours to consider how you fit into the changing world. Decluttering is the way to carve out time to think and jealously guard that time.
Time that should be used to prepare for family time tomorrow, or anything that seriously needs uour focus! Like :
*How to build your calm?
*Work life is in flux right now in unprecedented ways. *This past week I moved from one office to another
*I have both a new space and new people to manage.
Decluttering physical space and workflows is necessary to make change less messy.
Practice how I stay calm
Simple things and dozens of other small changes can keep you from feeling underwhelmed.
Accept the uncertainty our world is creating, then… Dust your desk.
Delegate one task
open up one hour Tuesday mornings to think.
Make your life easier thru decluttering , physically, digitally, emotionally, so that your mind is just a little more clear.
