Our lives are so abundantly full, and our choices are so limitless, that we often find ourselves overwhelmed, longing for something that we can only think of as a "simpler life".

Often we look at our physical space first (because we're tripping over the piles) and declare a war on stuff. If we can find the time, energy, and know-how, we clear clutter (or at least some of it). There is tremendous satisfaction in accomplishing some clearing of our environment. But, as a professional organizer and life coach who works with so many people to get this done, I have found that such external clutter is usually just evidence of internal clutter. Most clutter accumulates because we have difficulty making decisions.

Physical clutter also accumulates because people have emotional attachments to things, or to the activities of shopping, acquiring, accumulating, or they fear being left "without" something if they let it go. If these attachments are hampering your ability to live the life you want, you may benefit from a supportive team that includes a professional organizer and/or a personal coach.

Most of us are over-connected to the outside world and increasingly disconnected from our true selves. What are your core values? If you want to "simplify" your life with lasting effect, this is the place to begin.

Living with integrity, making decisions that support your values, will greatly simplify your life, inside and out.
