Twist, Spin, Organize and Feel the Power
by Clarice Mertz

Perhaps even more important than making life more simple, organization has a fantastic impact on how we feel about ourselves.
When everything is in order it gives us a sense of control, strength, purpose in lifeÉ and a feeling of power. Ultimately we are our own judge but, it is also important to have approval and admiration of others in our lives.

But, even knowing all this, there are times when it's still hard to get going on a project. When this occurs, maybe it's just a matter of shifting the way we think about our tasks.

Try looking at the project just a little bit differently.
Here are three easy examples of putting a little motivational spin on a hard to get moving project.

  1. Break it down. Just get started on the first step. It is very likely you will end-up doing all of it.
  2. Think about the way you will feel when the project is finished.
  3. This may take some practice, but it really works, once a week look around your home as if you are not the owner. Ask yourself what others might see. Pay attention to your feelings. These feelings will give you the motivation to make changes.

Most of our troubles in life are not the trouble itself, but the way we think about it. Try to approach your organizational problems with a little twist. It can be the spell that unlocks progress. Putting a playful spin can be a benefit when dealing with others; it is interesting to note that it also works on ourselves.
