We all know what we are supposed to do, but we don’t always do it. Go ahead and do it this week.
A client and her spouse challenged each other to complete the homework I assigned a month ago, before taking on more projects. Completion. Done.
“Completed” is powerful. “Done” feels great.
I worked in a client’s home recently, and we discussed “Done” in terms of the items in her dining room awaiting delivery to other destinations (like donated books and a table destined for a co-worker’s art room). She planned to have her teenagers drop off the items that day, to complete those final steps to clearing out their home space.
Some days it seems that the last few steps of a project are the hardest to get motivated to complete (and therefore never seem to get done). But please, push through those last steps, and then revel in Completion and Done.
“Completion” helps us breathe deeply, un-clutter our brain, feel lighter, look up and around, and think about something new for a change.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
