NATURE abhors a vacuum . . . This idiom is used to express the idea that empty or unfilled spaces are unnatural as they go against the laws of nature and physics. Despite what you may believe, the physical, emotional, digital, and spiritual space we occupy has a significant impact on our lives. 

When you create space in your schedule or unexpectedly discover yourself with unanticipated FREE time, what do you do? Do you instantly use it as an opportunity to run an errand or catch up on work? Do you do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING?! Do you try and squeeze in doing something you ENJOY?!

Removing physical and mental CLUTTER allows what we REALLY need in life to enter our space. If there is something NEW you want to manifest into your life, it’s impossible to happen if your physical and mental storage banks are at capacity. 

From our closets to our schedule, it’s EASY to drown yourself in clutter, it’s not easy to pull yourself out of the mess, let alone realize you’re in one to begin with. For all the Doers and HUSTLERs out there, it may seem counter-intuitive to work less and/or be less productive, but when we intentionally minimalize our lives, we gain SO MUCH MORE! 

Agreeing to every request and demand for our attention without reflecting on if this is something we desire or need in life causes us to become consumed by unimportant, petty to-dos and tasks. 

Quote: "Some changes look negative on the surface, but you will soon realize that space is being created in your life for something NEW to emerge." - Eckhart Tolle

Analysis (Body): 

Out with the old, in with the new. Change starts with creating a space for the change to occur. If you had one full uninterrupted hour per day that was guaranteed to be blocked off, what would you do with that time? Would you write a book? Have lunch with your Mom? Call a friend? Exercise? Cook a wholesome meal? 

Creating space makes room for things, people, and opportunities to enter your life. Creating space is opening your time, energy, and physical space to allow more room to do what you love and love what you do. Being able to foster clarity allows you to focus on what’s important.
