taking action

As with any change we create in our life, action is the key. You simply have to *do* something different to *create* something different. You can talk about getting organized, having a garage sale, starting a volunteer position, doing a yard project...but I guarantee none of it will happen unless you take action!

However, taking action can often be scary because we don't want to fail. Well, think of it this way, if you want to get organized but never take action...you will be much further behind than if you start organizing and then have a set back. At least you will have accomplished something and probably learned a lot along the way! Same goes for everything else you are putting off.

Taking action doesn’t have to be complicated. Once you have defined what you want (Getting organized), pick a first goal (organize the pantry). Next, identify a single action that will move you in the direction of your goal (Setting aside a 1-hour block of time). Then, do it! Repeat the process of identifying an action and doing it, over and over and over again, until your goal is achieved!

It's that simple! And for more simple organizing ideas, visit my website: www.andreadekker.com
