Feeling scattered? Here’s how to get your XXXX together and get back on track.
1. Do the stuff you hate
Who hasn’t had a job on the list that never gets done and keeps getting pushed to the next list, and the next? Do yourself a favour and do that job first. Get it off the list and declutter your head.
2. Dump it
Have a good look through your shelves and cupboards and ask yourself: do I use it? Why am I holding on to it? Is it just adding to the junk and emotional baggage? Then do yourself a favour and let it go. Just like dumping old bad habits, it will give you the confidence of a new you.
3. Get stuck into the office
Who doesn’t hate admin? But you’ll never have time for the things you want if you don’t get in there. Streamline your accounts, set up automatic payments, organise your filing cabinet and desk, and store your passwords in a secure password manager with a backup. Take the stress out of life.
4. Stop eating crap
Get back on track: next time you have a free day with no social plans, get cooking. Go through your cupboards first and clear out the out-of-date and unhealthy food. Then gather the good, healthy foods, plan a big cook-up, and freeze it in portions for those days when you just can’t be bothered to cook. You’ll save money, time and your health.
