Clarity and Focus!

“God wants everything to be done peacefully and in order”  - 1 Corinthians 14:33.  I LOVE this because our God is a God or order AND Peace.  Don’t you want ORGANIZATION and PEACE in you life? I know I sure do!  How do we get to the point that we’re feeling like we’re making progress?  How do we feel like we have Peace?  We look to God and he give us a simple, clear answer.  As a matter of fact, he already instilled that in your heart.  If you take a minute to be still, you will know what you’re supposed to do.  You really will.  He has already put it there, now we need to obey.  

Here’s how to get started:

Clarity comes from focusing on what He wants us to do.  Just sit for a minute a be quiet and still.  Ask God to bring to mind the important things he wants you to do today.  Focus just on today.  As you do He will revel the top priorities.  Go ahead and write them down.  You may have more than you can handle (I always do) so take the top 5 things and make a smaller list of sub tasks to go with accomplishing (or just getting started) with the 5.  Now you’re cooking, you have some goals.  

Take those goals and assign a start time for them, as a matter of fact, go ahead and plan your entire day.  Be sure to take time to break for lunch, do something fun and get back you your to do list.  Make it all time sensitive.  At the end of the day, you’l feel much more focused and confident that you can tackle all of your list over time.  Stay focused, make yourself accountable and celebrate the successes.  

Call us for a little help, especially with the clutter around your home.  We will mark our calendar for the same time you have set aside and you’ll be amazed at what we can accomplish together!  

I’d love to hear about your successes so blog me back and keep me posted!

Happy Organizing

Be a Clutter Cutter and find your JOY!

Clutter is the assortment of things, thoughts and attitudes that keep us from living the life that God created us to live.  This extra stuff interferes with our joy.  It builds up as a result of everyday activities just like dirt that gets behind our ears.  With care and attention we can all minimize clutter and eliminate the dirty part of our lives that clutter causes.

Clutter breeds discontentment while the simplicity of life brings JOY!

I challenge you to think about the clutter that’s bugging you.  Think about anything that takes your attention and time and keeps you away from your JOY.  Think about your clutter and how it slows you down, just like your laptop that has too much stored on the hard drive or too many windows open.  It gets bogged down, right?  Everyone has them, doing something about it is a different story.  Are you ready?

Make a list of things that bog you down, here’s a few thoughts that can get you started:  

-  What activities pull me away from what I love doing the most?

-  What do I procrastinate over that is very important?

-  What material possessions have I not used in the last year or 10?

You’re now on the way to get started your de-clutter project!  Let me warn you, don’t get paralyzed by the big picture!  Let’s take one area or item you want to work on.  Make a list of the things you want to do for that ONE goal.  Make it a thorough list.  Keep it simple.  Attach a to do date to each item and start down that list.  You’ll be amazed at what you can accomplish by just writing down what you need to do and when you need to do it.  

If this is hard, let us help you get started.  We can work a 3 hour session with you for only $225.  Last week I had a client that worked with me and after our 3 hour session, she was so motivated and excited that she cleared clutter from her entire home over the next 3 days.  A happy client?  You KNOW it!

De-Clutter for Life — Give God your best!

Taking the time to get rid of all the things in your that you no longer need or want will help you  see your future vision more clearly.  Yesterday, I had the pleasure of working with a client who needed to clear out her basement.  Ah, basements, the place where items get placed when you don’t want to deal with making a decision on them right away.  That’s OK for some things, but when you get in the habit of making quick decisions each day, you’re not left with a huge pile of decisions when it’s time for spring cleaning or time to move.  

Our professional organizers can help you get started.  When you feel like you’re paralyzed because you don’t know where to start, we can get you going.  We can keep you going as well!  Check us out at www.OnTheMove4u.com, we help out with all types of organizing.  Our speciality in the marketplace is unpacking and organizing for executives and individuals when they move.  We LOVE what we do and it shows!

When I followed up this morning with my client from yesterday, she said she is “still going!”  Actually, “A Woman on a New Mission” is more like how she put it to me.  Exciting, cleansing, freeing — just like the scripture we use as our live verse for business.  Here it is:

“God wants everything to be done peacefully and in order”  - 1 Corinthians 14:33

Gosh, I want everything peaceful and in order as well, don’t you?!  I think we all do and following God’s lead for our lives is such a blessing.  Being able to help people with their organizing is a blessing and our way of being the hands and feet of Jesus in everyday life.  

Let us help you clear your clutter, help with your move or just give you some confidence in your organizing efforts.  Call us today.  On The Move & More, 770-634-1595

Yes, There IS Great Order!

One of the reasons we love to help others organize so much is that it helps our clients with clarity and direction for their lives.  Finding out how our lives fit into the big picture is hard for many people to discern.  When we live our lives with too much stuff, too much going on, too much clutter, too much to do and not to mention taking care of ourselves personally, it takes a toll.  God has created us to crave order in our lives.  1 Corinthians 4:33 Shows us how our God is a God of order and reminds us that He always wants things done in an orderly way.  This kind of divine order brings peace.  Peace leads to clarity and clarity to love. 

 On The Move and More wants to help you find clarity and order for your life.  Whether it’s tackling the kitchen table so you can sit down and have a meal with your family, cleaning out the pantry or tackling the master bedroom to create a sanctuary for rest, we LOVE what we do!

Easy Self-Moving Tips from On The Move & More

Everyone moves for different reasons and at different stages in life.  We help make that move so much easier.  We will help you manage your move, de-clutter before you move so you can save money not moving all that stuff you really don’t want in your new place.  If you need help navigating which moving companies to use, want us to help you pack and/or unpack and get yourself organized, we’re here to help you out.  Check out our web site at On The Move & More.  Below are some things to think about before the big day comes.  If time doesn’t allow, just call us and we will manage it all.  We LOVE what we do and it shows!  Just ask our happy clients! 

Here’s some “do it yourself” tips for moving:

List It Out: Jot down a list of every little thing you need to get done from now till move in day. Get it all out of your head and down on paper. Then, each morning, move part of that list into your daily “to do” and start tackling.

Start Early: Try packing a few boxes each night for the entire month. This way it won’t be so overwhelming at the end to get it all done at once.

Make Your Calls All At Once: Set aside one hour to just continuously call each utility, each credit card, each physician, each online account, etc., and update your address. Just rip off the band-aid all at once and it’ll be over before you know it.

Purge: Have “give away”, “toss” and “sell” boxes tucked in the corner to fill as you pack. Getting rid of your extra weight now is going to make your move a lot easier, and cheaper if you are paying movers.

Color Coordinate: Choose a color for each room and mark each box accordingly.

Organize: Label each of your boxes with what room it will go in and what’s inside. This will help the boxes get to their correct destination and save you endless hours of rummaging through boxes over and over trying to find your cell phone cord, etc.

Stay Calm: It is very easy to get out of control and overwhelmed when you are faced with so much to do in such little time. So remember to breathe, and just keep telling yourself that you have done this before (assuming you have) and have gotten through it each time. Once you are settled in your new home, kicking back and drinking your inagural glass of wine, you’ll forget all about how much of a pain it was to get there.

If at any point during the process this all gets to be too much, simply call us!
