What sparks joy for Shelly
Shelly's adorable new puppy Stevie Wonder! @stevie1der.ontour
Gems:
"I knew I needed to do something to make my workplace more consistent and productive."
"It was kind of a graveyard of projects from the past that just didn't get completed."
"It always gets worse before it gets better."
"Every item has a purpose."
"You do have to touch every piece and say thank you and then toss it...you just don't know what hidden treasures could be in there."
"We got rid of four bookcases that at the end of the tidying process had nothing on them."
"Now i definitely think twice about bringing anything into my space. I definitely want things to have intention and purpose."
"A lot of things are easier because I know where things belong."
"You can tackle a big project if you figure out a timeframe, give yourself a deadline, and write a plan to get there."
"Just like in other parts of my life, I just needed a professional to help me."
