Yesterday, I mentioned that your surroundings affect the way you feel. Today, I want you to look at your home environment and see if there are additional improvements you can make to create a calm environment. Here are some ideas:
Easy:
- Take stock of a room in your home and look at areas that need improvement, organization, or inspiration. Jot down ideas that come to mind–something small that can be accomplished today, or calendar time for further research or action.
Moderate:
- Organize a bedside table, bookshelf, desk, or kitchen counter. Get rid of clutter and reorganize with an eye for aesthetics. Put a favorite object on prominent display.
Challenging:
- Consider a home improvement project! Do you have something in mind already? Start researching cost and logistics. Need inspiration? So many options online, but Houzz & Apartment Therapy are great places to start!
What was your most recent home improvement project? Did it lift your mood?
I finished a couple of administrative projects that I needed to and created 2 news folder/files. Office still needs some work. Will schedule a couple of hours for Thursday. I love the feeling when everything gets organized!
Way to go, Cristina!!! Enjoy the sense of accomplishment and the calm that comes with a more organized environment! Also, great job on being specific and intentional about your goal of working on your office–you committed yourself to “when” (Thursday) and “how long” (couple of hours)–that’s half the battle. :)
