174. Cleaning up

I cleaned my office today and I felt a lot better. More clear-thinking. Strange how your environment can affect your mental state. And to me, this is analogous to all areas of your business. For example, cleaning out expenses you no longer use. Or services that are not profitable enough. Or clients who are not the right fit for you. Or emails that are left unanswered for too long. Or tasks that you have neglected and need to be either dealt with or deleted. Or decisions you have been putting off until today. I’m a big believer in creating space to think. I took today off calls to give myself time to clean things up and work on the things that mattered. Without space, there’s no time to clean up. And if you don’t clean things up, your mind and your business will eventually be overrun. This is your reminder to reserve time, clean up, and work on the things that excite you most in your business. Or, just take a nap. Either way.
