Create More Money, Time, Freedom And Banish Unnecessary Stress
Take a good look around your life. Can you simplify the processes you use to complete your tasks and projects in anyway? How cluttered is your home? Your desk? Your calendar? Your bills, etc.
Simplification is about easing the burden that normal everyday life places on you. When you simplify you are cleaning up and taking away pressures and or things that get in your way. You cannot think clearly and focus on your goals if you are stumbling over children's toys, laundry or a stack of "stuff" that you do not actually use.
To have a clear mind and the ability to use your time wisely to you need to simplify all areas of your life. You need to get rid of all the "mess" in your home that you have to move around for no reason. Right away you should clear yourself a work area in your office. This space needs to be completely yours and spotless at all times. Your office should be quiet and preferably be somewhere that you can shut a door and work by yourself. If you do not have an office find another spot in your home.
In addition to cleaning up and simplifying your home you should take a good look at the activities that you have committed your time to. Often in the soccer mom culture we over-extend ourselves time wise. We say "yes" to dinner with a friend when we really just want to have a night off. We over schedule our children's schedules and by default our own time since we are responsible for driving them around and preparing them for events.
What have you said "okay" too lately that you don't really want to be involved in or like doing? Make a list of all your commitments and cross off ones that are not important or that you hate doing. This includes doing things like shopping for food or other things that can be bought online. You can pay under ten bucks and have all your groceries delivered. The 1 1/2 to 2 hours you used to spend at the store can now be spent working on your important goals. Continue with this activity until you free up over 15+ hours a week.
If you are married see if the chores are evenly spread between you and your spouse. If they are not - redistribute them evenly. Both partners deserve to have free time to work on their purpose. By sharing responsibilities as a team you allow each other to experience the bliss of working on projects that are dear to your heart.
An area that always needs serious attention is your finances. Are there items in your budget that you really do not need at the present moment? Are you paying for cable channels that you do not even watch? How about your home phone and cell phone? Do you actually use both? Can you switch car insurance to save money? How much food are you buying that just ends up being thrown away? If the family won't eat broccoli then don't buy it.
Simplifying is purely to take stress off your systems: mental and financial. The extra money that you "discover" once you have reduced your commitments, you will use to work towards your goals. While before you might have believed that you could not afford to allocate anything towards your goals . . . simplification will give you wiggle room in your budget to afford to start putting money towards the projects you care about. Even if it you can only find $50 a month to spend on your goals that is a wonderful start. Over time you will make choices and decide whether a going out for dinner or putting that money towards your purpose is the right decision.
