Clear the deck.

We hear it all the time - "I'm so busy", "I'm stressed out" or "I've had enough." In this state of mind, we start to feel that we can't handle any more tasks or requests. Yet, we continue to absorb more information, more possessions and more drama around us. With all this clutter swirling around our minds, it's understandable how we can't focus on what's happening in front of us.

We need less, not more. What we need is more quality rather than quantity in all areas of our lives. One way to accomplish this is taking away what you don’t need in order to gain what you truly want. You can start with email. Start unsubscribing from all those emails that are not important. While you're on the computer, clear off your desktop screen of all random files and do the same for folders, applications, and accounts.

Another area you can clean up is clothing. Go through your clothing and donate those items that you don’t wear any longer. How about the car? Yup, go in there, take everything out and place back only what you need. File cabinets are another area creating confusion. Take the time to throw out all those papers personal and work-related that you know you'll never need. The point is that every item in front of you is more information your brain has to process, and we don’t need any more brain overload.
