Everyone needs to hit the reset button from time to time.

If you’re like me, you benefit from making this a regular practice. You’ll know it’s time when it seems like your life is in shambles. Or as my generation would call it – you’re ‘burning out‘. When I start to feel out of control, I take that as my prompting cue.

Here’s my ritual for getting your life together as quickly & efficiently as possible:

1. ‘Marie Kondo’ your physical and mental spaces. Clear out the clutter, only making (physical and psychological) space for things that “spark joy”. Yes, this will require some deep reflection.
2. Listen to David Allen’s ‘Getting Things Done’ book on Audible (or read it), and implement the suggested system.
3. Listen to or read Atomic Habits by James Clear. Download a habit-tracking app or manually track your healthy habit practice.
4. Engrain yourself in a daily routine. Exercise discipline to ensure you actually stick to your routine. Don’t worry so much about the timing as you do the cadence. It’s all about creating flow.
5. Spiritually re-connect. This can mean a range of things for the spectrum of religious belief you might identify with. Maybe to you, this looks like incorporating a daily gratitude or meditation practice. Maybe it means you join a new church or commit to a bible study. Whatever the case, make the goal to get back in touch with what fuels you.
6. Make space for inner child wonder. You’ll be surprised how doing simple things you used to love as a kid (writing, dancing, drawing, singing, etc.) can make you feel so full.

Good luck getting your life together! <3
