Lately, I've been taking to some spring cleaning. I can't face the size of the entire de-cluttering that needs to be done, but I can deal with an hour a day.
It's a small accomplishment so far - an area just 3' X 3' - but with a big mental payoff. I have fired away stacks of old papers, dusty boxes, useless souveniers. I can now easily reach a window that has been shut. Imagine feeling the warm air breezing through! I came across a 33-year-old travel brochure for a vacation place my parents and I went to when I was a teenager. It was a nice few minutes of happy memories.
I never realized how detrimental just a little bit of clutter can be.
Take a casual but objective look around your house or office. What can you improve? What can be cleaned, or tidied up? What can be made more efficient just by changing a location?
Even if it seems insignificant, make the change anyway.
