What Potential Is Hiding in all of Your Clutter?
Over the past month or so, I’ve been going through some boxes here in my office.
I’m getting rid of what I no longer need and making plans for everything that is left over. It’s a slow process now, but this work is going to help streamline future projects and may even uncover a few hidden opportunities.
The question to ask yourself today is, “What potential is hiding in all of my clutter?”
Now, even if you don’t have any clutter and your shelves are monuments to organization, this doesn’t mean that you don’t have any hidden opportunities of your own.
You see, these boxes were kept in a very organized room with labeled shelves. But, the old adage “out of sight out of mind” certainly rings true here.
How, then, can you organize your own space for success?
The first step is to get rid of items that are just a waste of space. This sounds easy, but once you start deciding what to get rid of, you’ll also find yourself making up reasons for why you should hold on to this item just a little bit longer.
Here’s a great rule of thumb to help speed up the process. If you haven’t used something in a year, get rid of it. If you haven’t used something for more than a year or two, don’t even hesitate about parting ways.
Your next step is to increase the visibility of items you want to use in the near future. This could mean using clear boxes for storage, so you can instantly see those items lying in wait.
After that, make a plan to use these items, and make sure you write it down. Do this for everything, no matter if it is a list of contacts you’ve been meaning to use or a file containing your next moneymaking idea.
The key to organizing your workspace and your life is to use what you have first and then move on from there. Eliminate the clutter and you’re free to move in whatever direction you need to go to help you find success.
