How You Interpret Things

Posted on February 18, 2025

How you interpret things is how you see them. It is how you experience them. You react based on your learning and life experience. If you consider other options, it will help you respond.

The thing may not be what you interpret. It will be what it is, without your interpretation. Be mindful of this difference.

How to know and what to do? Pause. Consider how other people that are different to you might experience the same thing. Their way may not be better than your way, but it’s good to consider what they got from it.

Clear It Up Or Out

Posted on January 3, 2025

Every day in January, spend 1 hour clearing out a drawer, the left side of a cupboard or a shelf.

Donate, toss or use it. Clear out your life. Why do you have all this stuff? If it doesn’t bring you tremendous joy, make room for something that does – and that could just be uncluttered space.

If 1 hour every day doesn’t work for you, try to do it all across two separate, 8 hour days. Or, two hours, every other day. Make a firm and specific plan that works for you and then stick to it.

The decluttered space will be a joy to be in every day for the 11 remaining months of the year.

Remove And Limit

Posted on November 25, 2024

For the next 7 days, remove 5 things from your house each day. Find 5 things each day that do not bring you joy and get them out of the house. Take them to a charity shop, bin them or sell them online. Just get them out of the house in the next 7 days.

Be mindful that you don’t discard someone else’s favourite item. If it is not 100% yours, do ask the other person first to see if they are ok with letting it go.

Secondly, really limit what you bring in to the house. Leave it out front for recycling or in the trash bin if necessary. The less you bring into the house, the less you need to throw away later on.

If you do this every day for three months, you’ll have gotten rid of 450 items and your house will be nearly free of clutter and feel very cozy and calm.

Change. Only If They Want.

Posted on November 19, 2024

People have an infinite capacity to change for the better and for the worse. However, people usually change only once they decide to. Hence the saying about the horse, the water, and drinking.

Most people will do anything but change, even if the path is clear and the outcome almost certain. They would rather not change and then wait until it becomes a disaster.

Don’t be that person. Make the tough, uncomfortable changes today.

Discipline Determines

Posted on November 12, 2024

Your discipline will determine what level of success you are going to have.

If you don’t discipline your mind and body, to develop great habits, that you consistently do, every day, then you will have exactly what you have now, but you’ll be a year older.

Ignore it for a year or two or ten. Nobody will take any notice. You’ll be the same. And it’s only you to blame.

Instead, get determined. Stop talking. Start doing. Get results. Feel good. Your discipline will determine the outcome you’re going to have.

Your results tell us everything we need to know.
