How to Get Rid of Mental Clutter

Do you have trouble focusing on any one thing at a time?

Do you become cranky and bad-tempered when something doesnâ??t go the way you thought it would or should?

Do you feel â??foggyâ?? like you just canâ??t concentrate?

All these are signs of mental clutter.

Letâ??s get that cleaned up nowâ?¦

• First, ask yourself if you have accepted too much responsibility.

  Do you discover that you’ve more things to do than what you are able to finish in one dayâ??s time?

  Are you expected by others to do certain things, even though you donâ??t want to do them?

  When you take on more than you can handle, your mind zones out.

  Itâ??s almost like you become a zombie.

  Youâ??re on autopilot.

  You simply exist instead of living your own life.

  The only way to wipe out this is to start saying no.

  You canâ??t do everything on your own. And all of these extra responsibilities only lead to your mind feeling unfocused and cluttered.

• Second, ask yourself if you are thinking negative.

  It is easy to fall into the trap of a pessimistic attitude.

  Be more aware of your thoughts and apply positive thinking techniques as necessary.

  Negative thinking can cloud your mind and weigh you down.

• Finally, and most importantly, take time out every week to go over your schedule.

  Did you plan wisely for the week?

  Or did you end up short on time and not finishing enough because you were too scattered?

  Pinpoint your trouble areas and make a plan to turn them around.

Why ? – well its like this – life isn’t a dress-rehersal grab it with both hands and live your life
