Could you be a more mindful and present person? Perhaps you may have a dream to pursue and letting go of you stuff can help you <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oprah.com\/spirit\/how-to-live-the-life-you-want-charting-your-life\/all\">live the life you imagined<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>How much do we need to live a life we have imagined?<\/h3>\n<p>A corporate person moves to a new city to start her dream job.\u00a0 In her move, she decided her dream jobs might not be long term and more in a sequence, so she may have to move frequently as she climbs the corporate ladder.\u00a0 Because of this, it&#8217;s important for her to have less to take from city to city.\u00a0 She lets go of her possessions to be more nimble.\u00a0 Her work takes most of her waking hours so she will not be home to enjoy her space.\u00a0 As she envisions where her new assignments might take her, she wants to be less burdened by stuff to carry along with her.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A client marries and blends her belongings with her new partner. She lived a single life for quite a while and\u00a0 has been filling her closet with shoes and clothes.\u00a0 Letting go of her stuff makes the transition smoother.\u00a0 It is not about her stuff vs. his stuff.\u00a0 It is about living a life together in a small space but with great love and respect.\u00a0 Their lives will be about their connection, not their stuff.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A friend begins a mission trip that she has imagined for many years. She begins her preparations to move 6 months before her trip began.\u00a0 She whittles away\u00a0 at her furniture, clothing, books and papers. She moves most of her information to online resources.\u00a0 In the end, she\u00a0 has 3 larges suitcases for her 2 year stay.\u00a0 She begins to live the life she imagined by her bravery and commitment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s hard to imagine how important and compelling these journeys\u00a0 are.\u00a0 These dreams require letting go.\u00a0 It&#8217;s deep and meaningful commitments to what you can imagine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>How do we start?<\/h3>\n<p>Your dreams are waiting for you.\u00a0 Start with your dream and the simplest first step.\u00a0 It&#8217;s possible to achieve your dream with a plan.\u00a0 Start with <a href=\"http:\/\/professional-organizer.com\/WordPress\/the-art-of-letting-go\/\">letting go of what&#8217;s easy<\/a> and move to what&#8217;s more difficult.\u00a0 In paring down not only do we decide what&#8217;s essential, we also find what&#8217;s most vital.\u00a0 We can find out what&#8217;s the one most important thing for us to use or take with us on our journey.\u00a0 I would love to hear more from you on your journey to live the life you imagined.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Start here with organizing tips and tricks in my monthly newsletter!
