When I sat down to write an outline that later became my book, Write Like a Champion, one step was “Cut the Clutter.” That is, cut needless words to say the most with the fewest words possible. But writing is not the only place we can “cut the clutter.” We can cut physical clutter: messy desks, cluttered tables, crowded closets. We can cut electronic clutter: delete old emails and apps or store our photos to safe back-ups. We can cut mental clutter: cut the envy, regret, and resentment, so our brains have open space for positive thoughts. ANY time is a good time to declutter, but in this season of “spring cleaning,” a great time is NOW.Word of the Day: clutter (n, v.) needless trash or things we allow to build up and take precious space; the act of letting needless trash take up valuable space, time, or attentionQuestion of the Day: If you could spend just 15 minutes TODAY decluttering one area of your life--physical, electron, or mental--what would it be? How could it help you?Have a question or feedback? Maybe a topic you’d like to hear in a future episode? Please email Scott at [email protected]. We’d love to hear from you!
