I recently had to work through a horribly overwhelming mess in my home. As I used my decluttering steps (which I personally use all the time with all kinds of messes) I was able to get through it. I’m sharing that story, but also talking about how people like me react to decluttering challenges and expectations.
Mentioned in this podcast:
The 5 Day/Step Clutter Shakedown
This so perfectly described me. I hate pressure and expectations. I will run. And I never knew why I always failed at that type of thing. Best thing I’ve heard in a while. Just perfect for this time of year!
This is the first podcast I listened to. Your explanation of feeling pressure, etc. has allowed me to gain a little understanding about my teenage daughter. As I was joyfully cleaning and organizing (that’s my thing) I stopped and sat and listened. I played it back for her. It was such a relationship changing moment. Thank you so much for sharing your internal dialogue. A neat freak raising a slob needed to hear it. And a teenage slob thanks you for vocalizing what she couldn’t. We will certainly be seeking your local speaking events as we are also in East Texas.
Perfect timing! I am just dealing with having slammed into the ‘well, THAT didn’t work ‘ wall with Cas’s 30 day 5 minute/5 item challenge!
I’m SOO grateful for the explanation of ‘how my brain works’ & am adjusting to ‘didn’t work PERFECTLY, and SO FAR’ and am keeping on plugging on! And -Yep! – only able to make ANY use of the challenge due to progress achieved leaning heavily on your resources. I am beyond grateful!
