How to Get Things Done – Tip # 14

Filed under: Get Things Done! — 5buckguy @ 10:46 am

Each day for a few weeks, I’ll give you a new tip on how to get more done with the same hours you already have.  Here’s the next tip:

Simplify Your Life

When you simplify your life, you eliminate a lot of time and resource-sucking stuff that does nothing but drag you down. One of the best ways of simplifying is to trim down on all the things you can potentially bring into your life that will require your time to use or maintain.

The problem with trying to ‘have it all’ is that once you own it, you almost feel obligated to use it all regularly in order to justify your purchases. This mindset takes a lot out of you, and it’s really unnecessary.

When you really think about it, do you really need 4 magazines a month about the same topic, or could you get more out of digging deeper into your favorite magazine and dumping the rest?

Do you really need that shiny new gadget that will require time to learn how to use, or is the similar gadget you bought just 6 months ago still good enough?

Identify the things in your life that are complicating it (especially material stuff), and eliminate them!
