When I tell my clients that they need to declutter their homes and
relationships to achieve the success they want in their businesses, I'm
typically met with some skepticism. If you've never thought about it
before, it can be confusing to think that the things we keep with us
physically and mentally can have an impact on our business lives.
In truth, however, clutter in our physical environments and relationships energetically blocks the flow of abundance, getting in the way of the success we are reaching for.
But it makes sense, doesn't it? When we have clutter and unwanted stuff
in our lives, there isn't space for the abundance we are seeking. We
want more money, nicer clothes, more delicious food, yet all we have is
lots of mediocre, old, unused crap taking up our precious space.
This applies to our mental and emotional environments as well. Often we
hold onto resentment and deny forgiveness, then wonder why it's so challenging to feel grateful and truly appreciate the things we have that matter.
If you're serious about manifesting and welcoming abundance into your
2015, here are some ways you can physically and mentally declutter your
life.
Declutter Your Physical Environment
This applies to the physical space you spend your time in on a
day-to-day basis: your home, workspace and even your car. Aside from
getting rid of the things you don't use anymore, you should also
eliminate the items that are not invited into the next phase of your
life with you.
Picture the vision you hold for yourself — the
abundance you want, the success you need to achieve, and the place you
want to be by the end of 2015. Is that old stained T-shirt or towel with holes welcome in that picture? Go through every
room in the house, every drawer and cabinet. Evaluate if what you're
finding meets the high standard of the improved version of your life
you're working toward. How many spices in your cabinet have never been
used? Are you ever going to find the lid for that Tupperware? How about
socks without matches or clothes that don't fit? They don't belong here,
I promise.
When you physically remove these things, you create
space for new, improved items. Recently I spent a lot of time
decluttering my bathroom of old makeup and half-used lotions or soaps,
and the next day a gift from a friend showed up on my door step full of
chemical-free, mostly organic self-care goodies. Clear that space so the abundance can come in. Declutter Your Relationships
It might feel a little unnatural to talk about decluttering your
relationships like you would do with your belongings, but similar rules
app
Declutter Your Emotional Baggage
Practice forgiveness — forgiving yourself and others.
Get rid of the fear that lives in your head. This fear will confuse
you, keep you playing small, and get in the way of your success.
Stop procrastinating and prioritize. Delegate and eliminate all of it so you aren't drowning in overwhelm.
Allow yourself to see past the things that have hurt or disappointed
you and visualize them as steppingstones and lessons to be learned from.
Release your frustration. This is a must if you want live in the present and not the past.
Everyone has emotional clutter. It's natural. The important thing is to
recognize and declutter your emotional baggage so that it doesn't
prevent you from seeing and taking the opportunities that are right in
front of us. When you can release the painful baggage you've been
hanging onto, great transformation is possible.
