Reducing Clutter

blog

Where can you reduce clutter in your life?

When I hear clutter my first thought is to reorganize any space in the house. I always am down for a closet declutter- getting rid of old clothes that aren’t worn any longer, and any random things we’ve stored away that haven’t been missed.

I could also reduce the negative clutter in my mind. I find myself still complaining and getting bothered by things that are beyond my control. I know we have negative cognitive biases for survival, but I personally would like to have more positive thoughts than negative ones. So I’d say I have to declutter all the old programming and negative thought patterns.

Online Communication

In what ways do you communicate online?

The number one way I communicate is here on my blog. In reality, I know I have some followers on here, but I honestly mainly talk to myself on here LOL. To communicate with others, I am off of all social media right now except for snapchat, so I mainly just send snaps to my friends or add to my story! I’m unsure if texting or facetiming counts as online, but if so, I also do those things.

Memorable Road Trip

Think back on your most memorable road trip.

Is it bad that I know I did a long road trip with my aunt, uncle and cousins back when I was 10, but I can’t remember a thing about it?? LOL!

I honestly feel like I blackout road trips, because I am typically car sick if I am not the driver, and when I am the driver I’m so hyper focused on not being hit by anyone and making sure I’m listening to my maps that I don’t have the brain capacity to retain information.

My friend and I did a 5hr drive last year to go meet up with another friend and go to a show, and it was nice to be able to just chat along the way- so I guess that was most memorable for me.

Prompt

blog

Come up with a crazy business idea.

Honestly I told my husband last night how in the future I’d love to be an anti-insurance broker where I explain to people why they don’t need insurance and how to set themselves up and save accordingly and find discount plans instead that don’t have restrictions like insurance plans do. I don’t even know if that is really a business because it wouldn’t make money LOL, but that’s why I said I’d want to do that later on like maybe if/when I am a stay at home mom or retired!

Future or Past

blog

Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why?

I definitely spend more time thinking about the future, and I think it just comes from my control issues/anxiety. I find myself worrying about worst case scenarios sometimes, and I just have to redirect myself to the present and be grateful for the life I have today. I also have to trust that I can handle whatever challenges life brings.
