in cash and buy only things you really need? What about your online
life? Do you spend too much time
on social media or instant
messaging? Then, it might be time to get a little bit more disciplined.
Set fixed time for when you will be online and stick to them. Put a
timer if necessary. Unclutter the desktop on your PC and your e-mail
inbox. My client Marc did this and virtual uncluttering had the same
effect on him as physical uncluttering. He let go of a big weight that
he was carrying around and hence, got a lot more energy. Check
your e-mails only at certain times during the day and turn off the tone
of e-mail and text delivery so that you are not distracted all the time.
Now is also a good time to unsubscribe
from journals that are just
piling up and that you never read, and to ask yourself if you really
need to read three different newspapers every day. Are you
commuting to work? Maybe you can ask your boss if you can work
from home once or twice a week. Are you working too many hours?
See if the chapters in this book on
time management and getting
organized can help you to reduce your working time and find more
time to do the things you love. And do yourself a favor: Don’t bring
your work home—not physically and not even mentally. If you didn’t
get it done at work, examine your working habits and change them if
possible. This is extremely important.
