Drop It...

Hi.

Welcome back.

Last week I encouraged you to delete the apps that are time sucks in your life.

You can read that article here (see the GREAT comments from other people reading and sharing -- please add yours there too!).

This was ONE actionable tip to help you get stuff out of the lower right corner of the?Eisenhower Matrix).

Good start.

Now for a tough request....

The Problem:?My Mind Spins

This week, imagine you and I are still "just" hanging out.

We loved wherever we met last week and decided to go back there together.

ME: "Hey, how are you?"

YOU: "I deleted stuff off my phone. Still. Freaking. Swamped."

Not Urgent.

Not Important.

Remember that from last week?

Cool.

Your mind could be spinning because there is a LOT of stuff in that lower right corner.

Really.

Look at all that stuff you wrote down (well, if it's not all listed IMAGINE it OR take a moment and brain dump all that stuff on real paper).

DISCLAIMER: If your mind is spinning and you need professional help -- PLEASE contact your doctor ASAP. Saying this with empathy and reminding both of us this is a short-article-that-does-not-want-to-gloss-over-possible-life-altering-things-for-you-that-need-to-be-addressed).

The Actionable Tip: Drop It

OK.

First.

Read more about "Saying No" here. Good stuff.

It's not easy to do (well, for me at least).

Spoiler Alert

You. Must. Do. This.

NOT URGENT.

NOT IMPORTANT.

Let it go.

Delete it.

Say No.

AND MEAN IT (TO YOURSELF).

Watch the magic that happens when you clear your mind of what's been there (possibly for a lonnnnnnnng time my virtual friend).

And you just drop it.

Really.

What if that lower right quadrant was empty.

Wow.

Completely Zen, huh? (smile)

And maybe out of my own reach in reality too.

Your Next Step...

Think about the problem I've described and my actionable tip above.

Here is the part where?I need YOU to contribute YOUR actionable tip?for others who are reading this short article....

Please share ONE actionable tip in the comments below about what benefit you've seen by dropping the stuff in NOT URGENT - NOT IMPORTANT.

Go.

Thank you.
