1. Message of the Day

CARE! CARE! CARE!

Messies are an emotional lot. We love our belongings,
our memories, and our present habits dearly. We are
strongly attached to our many hobbies and projects.
That's why we resist letting any go.

Let us transfer that emotional approach to love for a
better way of life. Train yourself to love to come home
to an orderly house. Entwine tightly around yourself the
concept of a beautiful and organized life.

Be driven by strong emotion to do whatever it takes
to make the change you need, the change you want,
and the change you deserve. In short, care intently
and keep on caring until it is done.

2. Sharing Our Successes

It is still much of a fight to get things organized but the
two most important achievements help me come through
the days and having hope for more achievements:

* The shining sink. I made it a routine to have the kitchen
shine at me before I go to sleep so it will smile at me in the
morning. It is not perfect and I keep putting things from one
site to the other but this way the sink and the surface of the
dishwasher and washing machine are empty and clean.

* The bed made in the morning right away. Not perfect,
but done. So when I come back from the bathroom it
already spreads a nice atmosphere.

I thank you from all my heart
Lina

4. Habit of the Day

LOOK BACK, REALLY LOOK BACK! When you begin an area or
room, go to the door and focus on seeing what you need
to do. Make yourself tune in visually.

(Hint: Circle your hand or use an empty toilet roll as
a telescope to focus your attention on what you are seeing.
Better yet, take a digital snapshot before and after.)
------------------------

5. Family Reminder of the Day

Pick one of these reminders or make one of your own to
share with your family each day.

In our family, we put what we need the next day by the
front door the night before.

In our family, we don't drop our things when we come
in the door. We take them and put them where they belong.
------------------------

6. Quote of the Day

8. From the Trenches

PERSPECTIVE

The thought of moving got me going again. I was out walking
on Thanksgiving and came across a house for sale that was
exactly what I had always dreamed of. Only problem is that
it is way more than we could afford unless we manage to win
the lotto. But it didn't keep me from fantasizing. What would
we take with us? What would we get rid of? Of course that
would only go so far. For example, if we did win the lotto, I
would get rid of several boxes of clothing and just buy new
instead of waiting to go through them to see if there is anything
we need. But it did help me realize that there still was a lot
of stuff that I don't need even now and I managed to clear
out several spaces over the weekend. About three bags to Goodwill.

MESSIES ANONYMOUS SLOGAN

Please memorize this slogan and post it on your wall.

The secret to success is making very small, yet very consistent, changes.
