Improve Productivity By Decluttering The Mind



Einstein is quoted as saying "Nothing happens until something moves".  

Movement means action or activity.  But not all movement or action is productive.  Sometimes, we do things that does not utilize our time, or our actions, wisely. This can lead to a whole host of undesirables that include frustration and eventually inactivity. The goal is to be productive and using the least amount of energy and time in doing so. 

How To Improve Your Productivity
Many years ago a highly educated man described how he was able to be productive. He said, "The way I am running is not aimlessly. The way I am aiming my blows, is so not to be striking the air".  In other words, he was not just chasing after the wind or heading in any direction or path that came within his vision like a squirrel who gets side-tracked with every distraction or temptation.  Using energy in this way just wears a person out without anything to show for it.  You want your energy and actions to count for something ..... to serve a purpose.

Decluttering The Mind
To be successful, you need to be motivated.  Positivity is needed for motiviation.  Being purposeful is needed for positiviity.

When the mind is cluttered it is difficult to be focused and purposeful.  Think of the mind like a computer.  Whatever "data" we decide to "input" into our brains it will file it away some place. Eventually, the computer becomes "fragmented".  There are bits and pieces taking up space inefficiently and reducing performance ability.  Unless "defragmentation" is performed the computer will start process more slowly and eventually fail to funtion at all.

The brain can function in the same way.  When "bits and pieces" of information is fed to the brain it may not know where to store it and this "data" just takes up space.  One example might be health.  There is a ton of information that can take you down so many different paths.  However, trying to do them all can be like "chasing the wind" or like a squirrel who takes the long way aroung to get to its destination.  

A cluttered brain leads to overwhelm and no forward motion.  It is like being "stuck" in the mud.... just sitting there being stagnant.  Stagnation leads to stagnation, frustration and no progress.  Rather than feel like a failure try "defragmenting" the mind, removing "data" not pertinent at the moment or not serving the purpose can allow the brain to focus better and help you see the best path to take for your specific health journey.  Start with the option that fits your current needs and budget.  Then move on from there.  The important thing is to start some place and complete it so you can move on to the next opportunity to grow. 

Having a concise place to start is always beneficial.  You might want to consider some of these classes and freebies.


My Freedom Journey

 
People, including doctors, thought we were crazy...all in our heads.  After all, how could normal, every day household and personal product smells affect your ability to function, to cause you to be incoherent and feel shaky inside, to have an emotional break-down?  Inside we were dying.  Outside we appeared normal. 
Fragrances were, and are, part of every day, normal life.....candles, laundry, cleaning, perfumes.  Everyone and their neighbor used them.  For us, we either had to isolate ourselves or suffer the following day or two with a toxic hangover.  Isolation is never a good option, especially with children.  During the summer it was impossible to go outside without inhaling someone's laundry or the recent lawn product application.  My husband was so bad one summer that he could eat constantly and, yet, still lose weight.  Every month I would get a sinus infection and/or chest congestion. 
Then came the food sensitivities and autoimmune disorders.  How could food cause my ears to be red and hot, my cheeks to flush, and cause my entire body to break out multiple times in a horrendous, red, itchy, inflamed rash only to burn when scratched and ooze yellow, sticky fluid?  Imagine, every day having gauze pads over the majority of your body under your clothes and hoping the rash doesn't drain so much that it soaks through your clothes.  It would take months to disappear.  People said "just get a cortisone/steroid shot" for relief.  They could not understand why that was not my choice
By discovering and eliminating my many triggers, finding a new, non-toxic way to support my immune system, my liver, and my thyroid, I have not had a major skin breakout for about 3 yrs and have been able to manage my autoimmune disorders without the use of standard medication. 
I finally found a way to acquire "Freedom from Toxins", "Freedom to Achieve Wellness", and "Freedom to Choose".
