Declutter Your Life – Four Steps to Create Inspired Action

Clutter clearing, getting organized, and simplifying your life are ways to uncover what you love and it opens the door to inspired action in whatever you do. Inspired action is different than just being busy or active. You know you are inspired when work becomes play, you have an increase in energy, experience a single minded focus, and listen to your inner voice which makes any task or challenge feel effortless and enjoyable.

If you would like more inspired action in your clutter free journey and get in the inspired zone to achieve any goal or project in your home or life, here are four simple strategies so you can make the shift to be inspired, creative and energized.

Clarify what it is you want to create by letting go of clutter in your home. Decluttering and organizing a home office can reveal the desire to increase business and make more money. Getting rid of junk may be an inner desire to shift from being stuck in any area of your life to making more fulfilling choices. Clearing out a closet may be the beginning of decluttering your wardrobe to motivate you to get fit and healthy and create a new look. Getting rid of what you no longer love and use may be the desire to find your purpose in life. So connect your decluttering and organizing projects to what you want to create in your home and the big benefit you want to experience in your life.

Set your intention. Intention is a few simple words that state what you want to create and empower your actions. Intention is simple, can be visual, a feeling or to define your end result. You could say “I want to create calm in my living room” which inspires you to remove clutter or change furnishings to softer color and add candles or elements for nature for a more relaxing energy.

You may intend to have your financial area in perfect order which may inspire you to feel positive, manage money better and attract prosperity. Your intention could be to run ten kilometers a couple times a week which is a great motivator to declutter and organize sports equipment in the garage, get the kitchen menu and pantry organized and go through your closet making comfortable exercise clothes a priority. Intention connects your subconscious to your conscious which empowers you to intuitively take those inspired action baby steps that make the space, time and opportunity for your inner desire to create an outer result.

Make a detailed crystal clear picture of what you want to create. Think thoughts, visualize an image, and write a description that will uplift your energy, get you focused and make you feel excited about your end result. Play with this, add detail, use your five senses and add to your vision as you gain clarity. A consistent focus on the end result will guide you to intuitively take the right action to get the result you want. Often this process allows you to skip steps and achieve your end result a lot quicker.

Take that first step. Stop thinking about the way things are and keep dreaming about the way you want them to be, while you start creating the positive change that you want. Decluttering and organizing are part of designing how you want to live and create the room for vision and inspired action. Keep in mind baby steps are the beginning of big dreams.

You will find decluttering your home and getting organized will create the positive energy for inspired action in any area of your life. Get clear on what you want, set an intention, detail your personal vision and take that very important first step.
