There's something wild that lives under your desk. It has no fur, won't bother you while you sleep, and fortunately it doesn't bite. This wild thing is not cuddly and if you're like many of my clients, it probably drives you bonkers. It's your wild thing of wires.
What if I told you there was a shortcut for creating positive change in your life? Would you be interested to know what it was? Whether you want to organize your kitchen (or your whole house), set up a new filing system, lose weight or change some other area of your life, you will get there faster if you focus on fewer things at once.
…You own a small fortune worth of storage containers which are all empty. …You can't shut one dresser drawer without opening another. …You have take-out for dinner more than you cook.
"I never got into using my phone's calendar. It's easier to write in my Tiffany day planner. We have all had one at one time or another…the daily planner. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and formats but one thing remains the same, it is only as good as the user. I have tried many types of planners, including my iPhone, and none have worked for me and only recently found one that works, the Emily Condren Life Planner (emilycondren.com).
"I paid good money for it" or "I know it is worth a lot of money, I don't want to just GIVE it away". These are two statements I hear over and over again. The speaker could be talking about furniture, clothing, or toys but it is always the same. The problem is not whether or not something is of value but where to find the person who will value the item as much you think they should. There are many options but is it really worth the trouble? I learned this lesson first hand when trying to sell items on EBay to save up for a very expensive item. It just never added up. Let's take a Louis Vuitton purse for example. If you are lucky, you will pay approximately $1000 for a genuine handbag. You use it, break it in then decide you want a different style. Now, what to do with the old one? A gently used authentic Louis Vuitton would get about $100 on EBay. So we are already at 10% the original value without calculating shipping charges or PayPal fees. Trying to sell one at a garage sale might net you $50, if you are lucky. You might sell it to a friend or on a Facebook swap meet group but the results are about the same.
