Strip It Down & Step It Up!

It’s Friday — a new weekend & a new moon phase beginning tonight. What an excellent time to clear the clutter & clean the corners to make space & time for new beginnings — the projects, the habits, the ideas, the behavior, all things that really matter to make the difference for you!
And while we often do not have any problem starting something new, it’s usually the letting go of the old that really upsets us. Letting go of old projects that we didn’t complete for some reason, letting go of last year’s files, the deep-rooted ideas that have gone stale… Recognize this?
Well, then you probably also have experienced it’s essential to let go of the old, of the out-grown in order to make space & time for the new, for the fresh flow of ideas & opportunities & amazing brakes .
Yes, you have to strip it down in order to step it up!
And that includes you, your business & everything around it that doesn’t serve you anymore.
You might ask yourself now why we have such a hard time letting go of all our stuff, our mental & physical clutter. Well, not really necessary to go there but if you want to know… it’s because we want to feel safe. Somehow all our stuff — even if it’s old, stale & musty — brought us here, got us to this place & makes us feel safe. Discarding the old, the familiar, the been-on-our-shelves-like-forever is like disposing ourselves of our comfort blanket… & that’s hard!
But necessary.
Yes, it’s necessary to strip it down in order to step it up.
And you know that includes you, your business & everything around it that doesn’t support you anymore.
And even with all the tricks & tips & tools & Marie Kondo’s in the world, you still have to do it yourself. You know you can. You know you have to. No choice…
And you probably also know all the tricks & tips & tools & Marie Kondo’s in the world so there’s nothing new here. You just know you can. You know you just have. No choice…
So what I’m leaving you with is a little personal poke — a timeless story that put you back into the reality, into the spirit of stripping down & stepping up:
There was a world-famous teacher living in Europe. One day he was visited by a man who had traveled all the way from America just to see him.
The man came to the great teacher’s house in Europe — quite a big house — and was taken to the teacher’s room, which was actually in the attic. The man entered and found the wise man living in a room with a bed, a chair, and a few books. That was all.
Now the man had expected much, much more from such a famous teacher. After greeting the wise man, he asked carefully, “but Respected Teacher, where are your things?”
The wise man posed the question back to him, “Well, where are yours?” Then the man replied, “But, Teacher, I’m only passing through here,”
And gently the wise man answered, “So am I, so am I.”
Yes, in the busyness of all things, we often forget the things that really matter to us … time, space & energy to take great care of us & our business — taking care of our core.
It’s time for you to strip it down to the core & step it up to new heights in the most effective way – your productivity, your profits & your personal growth.
