Words That Inspire - SIMPLIFY
What do you gain if you SIMPLIFY? Dictionary* says: to reduce to basic essentials, to diminish in scope or complexity, to make more intelligible. What it REALLY means: removing clutter and interference from your life and work; looking at large obstacles as the sum of small challenges; choosing to do less, have less, want less. Why it MATTERS? SIMPLIFYing, both physically and mentally, leaves more space for creativity, problem-solving, and exploring. Decision making is clearer, communication is enhanced and personal enjoyment is increased. Questions that INSPIRE: ? What personal or professional situation would you like to SIMPLIFY? ? How would SIMPLIFYing make you feel? ? What do you gain if you SIMPLIFY? ? What barriers are in the way of SIMPLIFYing this situation? ? What one action can you make today to SIMPLIFY? I hope you enjoyed Words That Inspire, a monthly glimpse at words that matter.
