Clutter – Heal ThySELF DVM http://www.healthyselfdvm.com Re-Igniting Your Love of Veterinary Medicine Wed, 09 Aug 2017 13:38:16 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.2.21 Dealing with energy drainers… http://www.healthyselfdvm.com/dealing-with-energy-drainers/ Wed, 16 Aug 2017 13:32:54 +0000 http://www.healthyselfdvm.com/?p=724 Continue reading "Dealing with energy drainers…"]]> I know that when I am feeling stuck and unable to move forward, I realize there are things in my house or office that need to be done that bother me every day as I look at them. Little things like clutter on the countertop, stuff on the stairs waiting to be carried up, a burned out light bulb in a lamp.  Things that I could quickly and easily remedy, but I don’t.  

I use them as evidence to myself that I am lazy, worthless, overworked, a poor time manager and an overall failure at life! Yep, that sums up my thoughts some days!

But what I have learned is that when I feel that way and look at those things, if I can resolve them I feel so much better and can turn around that negative self-talk.  

So here is my challenge to you:

  1. Pick 3-5 things that irritate (drain) you every day when you look at – or think about – them. Choose easy-to-remedy things for now like change that light bulb (not paint the house or clean the closet out).  
  2. Now, commit to resolving one thing on the list every day this week.  Just one.  
  3. As you resolve the thing, give yourself credit for fixing it, tell yourself how much you love yourself for doing this and celebrate the hell out of your accomplishment every day!  

These energy drainers are keeping you stuck. Changing the little things you don’t like about your surroundings will lead to your ability to create the bigger things you dream about.  

Here is a TEDx talk that will give you more ways of jump-starting the removal of those energy drainers: https://youtu.be/Lp7E973zozc.
