Читать книгу 30 Days to Simplify Your Life - Janet Rowland - Страница 2

The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible. ~ Rich DeVos

We all deal with commitment overload. One of the big causes of stress is just having too much to do. Usually that comes from saying, “yes”, to too many things. Our family, friends, co-workers, neighbors, kids and parents ask us to do things, and we have a hard time saying, “no”. We are asked to do things that are, for the most part, admirable things. They just don’t fulfill our purpose or help us achieve our goals. Unless we figure out what our purpose is, we will continue to struggle with saying, “no”. We will continue to allow the urgent to take precedence over the important until we define our purpose and only focus on those things that help us achieve our goals.

Simplifying isn’t just about organizing. Yes, getting organized is a part of the process, but it’s also about getting rid of the excess. The purpose of this book isn’t just to help you get organized so you can accomplish more. Rather, the purpose is to help you accomplish the things that are most important to you, and get rid of everything else that is clutter. Not just things but obligations and even relationships.
