Let’s face it. We all make life more difficult than it has to be. Don’t you think? I know I certainly do.
I can be a slob. Sometimes it makes it makes things difficult when I’m trying to figure out where my favorite shirt is. Oh yeah! It’s still in the floor from last week and I forgot to wash it.
Or when I am running late to be somewhere and realize my gas light is on and I have to make an extra stop.
I procrastinate. The jury is still out whether that makes things difficult. I work well under pressure. For instance, I’m under pressure to get this blog post finished because I’m running out of time. But, I’m bound and determined to get it done.
I wanted to share a few ideas with you on how to uncomplicate your life.
Here are fifteen ways to simplify your life:
- Get at least eight hours of sleep per night. You’ll tend to be more productive in the morning and less cranky throughout the day.
- Put money in savings every week, even if it’s only a little bit. You’ll be surprised how fast your discipline pays off.
- Keep your checkbook balanced. Never assume you have enough in the bank.
- Follow a budget. Stick with it. Preaching this to myself.
- Kiss and make up.
- Say “I love you” even when you’re mad.
- Don’t go to bed angry. It’s really not worth it.
- Tell the truth.
- Don’t cheat on your taxes.
- Forgive.
- Spend your time around people who lift you up and encourage you.
- Make time for you.
- Drink more water.
- Let go of your expectations of others.
- Never cease praying. Make this number one on the list.
