When recording this week's episode I felt like we probably spoke about this topic a few weeks ago — it should be fresh in people's memory, right?

Nope. If we have mentioned it before, today is as good a day as any to repeat the message.

Only

Handle

It

Once.

OHIO. Not the state in America, rather the state of a clear and uncluttered mind, lounge floor, kitchen sink, handbag, set of keys.

You know that frustrated feeling when you stand in the middle of a room, not sure anymore what you were doing there in the first place. Looking down at a thing in your hand you thought you were taking somewhere or putting away, and then you got distracted and now you are stuck dealing with it again.

In this episode we advocate for the idea to build a system and implement it.

To handle something once only — whether an email, a bag of shopping, a dirty piece of cutlery.

If it takes less than 2 minutes to finish the task, do it now. Get it out of the way, do not revisit it.

And while you are at it — let go of the guilt of making those terrible decisions. Handle it once.

Ask for forgiveness, move on. Do not repeat.

Life is precious, and having to revisit decisions and flat surfaces more than once leads to overwhelm and a sense of crazy.

And you deserve better.

Enjoy your Journey!
