Great Expectations

Everyone likes a "great deal" when they find something they think they can use for a project of some sort; however, how many times does the great expectation of the "PROJECT" actually happened??? For some people it can happen right away; however, for the majority of people the "I had an idea of using it for..." never happens and things just keep piling up, and piling up and before you know it you have a room full of "GREAT EXPECTATION" projects cluttering up your life.


Recommendation 1) If you are a great deal=great project idea person, finish the project first and then you can bring in the next great deal project item. Too many unfinished projects can scramble your thought process and simply overwhelm you. Plus it creates chaos in your home with all the "STUFF" cluttering up your life.

Recommendation 2) If you haven't completed the project within a six-month to a year period of time...LET IT GO nor DO IT!! If you don't have time to do it, get it out of your home.

Clearing the project clutter will help clear your mind and give you more space in your home. Plus it then takes off the pressure of worrying about trying to do the "project".

It's not an easy thing to do and you might have the feeling of remorse that you "lost" something in your life; however, it was just an idea and once you finish all your other projects, you can maybe go back and try to do that project again someday. Bottom-line, learn to let it go. Mourn for the loss and then get over it and remember, clear space, clear mind and a better feeling of calm in your home.
