I am setting my aim for getting the stuff done that I don’t feel like getting done and will make me feel better after I actually do it.
When I think of my ideal life, I think of uncluttered, unfettered, less stuff more positive, constructive experience yet I don’t have daily clearing practice.
To my credit, I have started a morning meditation and an evening yoga nidra practice which is working on my mental side, but my physical surroundings, not much has changed. So here’s the deal:
I am going to start today, as soon as I get finished typing, to clear space for five minutes – just five minutes.
Then I will come back and type how I feel. I will upload this and go back to life-as-usual. I will repeat until next Tuesday.
I will report back.
Easy peasy lemon squeasy (or however that saying goes.)
It will “only” be 35 minutes of clearing and yet, my belief is it will be seven consecutive days of doing things differently. It will be seven days of believing I can and proving it. It will be seven days of setting the timer and saying, “Ready, Set, GO GO GO GO GO!” much like we happily do as children.
I am now going to stop typing. I’ll “talk” to you in 5!
(Imagine me running around the house – and I stopped to scrub my bathtub even! Can you believe it?! And I laughed while I did it! Who laughs with giddy joy while scrubbing the bathroom? I did! I did!)
This is what aligned accountability looks like. This is what makes Ta-Da Tuesday so fun. Co-working virtually with like minded and like hearted entrepreneurs, creatives, artists, healers who “get” me and this process.
I came back and reported both here on the blog and the others, assembled on the Zoom Conference Room – a video meeting with people in both hemispheres today. People working at the beach, in their homes and wherever they found themselves.
That was great! I got a bag of stuff out to the trash and moved. My floor is picked up, my energy is lifted and I am ready to make a real shift.
Who else is in?
Comment what you are ready to get rid of, even if you aren’t in for the full seven days.
Every little bit helps. And Every little bit of fun and joy adds up!

Oh, how wonderful!! I am after the same freedom from clutter in my own life. And I also am doing morning meditation. This week, I am adding a yoga pose to my morning routine each day and it does feel good to be doing something different. Glad you felt so much joy!
