Today I’m clear your clutter inside and out. We’re talking about your vision for 2020.

What do you see for your life this year?

How can you gain clarity and focus?

Are you aware of why you didn’t accomplish what you’d hoped to last year? Learn how to create your vision as we begin our month

focusing on clarity.

Do you control your clutter? Or does your clutter control you? unclear your clutter inside and out, will teach you awareness as well as action steps to create change in your life. Come on. Let’s get started.

Hey, hey, hey everyone. 2020 Can you believe it? I turn 50 and 2019 but I’m still my birthday. You’re still 50. And I remember as a kid, thinking 2020 seems

so far away so far off.

And look, here we are.

Life definitely seems to go by much more quickly as we age. So if you’re like me, or even if you’re just in your 20s starting out, let’s work on creating the life we desire. Because in every moment, we have a choice. First step, as I knew at the beginning of each year, changes to the podcast. I have decided no longer to do a bonus episode. I really liked doing the one minute wisdom, but even with a much shorter episode, because I know I always didn’t hit the mark. And, and honestly, when I was doing some of these episodes,

ah,

I could go on and add and oh, I need to redo this and have it as a full episode.

But it takes effort. And so by

no longer doing a bonus episode because before when I started the podcast, bonus episode was a full episode

we have I think we’re up to 325 roughly in the archives I feel like we have a good solid archive and so the bonus episodes Not gonna happen now Never Say Never I might be doing a month be like oh my gosh, I feel really inspired by adding a bonus episode. So in general is probably not gonna happen it might happen this month because I was inspired by something but anyway, that’s probably going to be the biggest change. If you have signed up for my

newsletter, I

am going back to a quarterly newsletter this year

with downsizing and so much

going on.

I forgot to put out newsletters I think for a couple months it just

I usually try to do stuff

a month or so in advance sometimes two months with the newsletters just because I can get it done and and have it ready to go and

I completely space guys

life happens and so what that told me was

that Wasn’t a priority for me,

I’ve got so much going

on. And I kind of did the same thing with the newsletter taking that I do with podcast taking July and December off. I’m cutting back to quarterly, I’m going to try to get a little more information only four times a year.

But if you’re on the newsletter, I thought that I would share that.

I am still gonna take two breaks. I think that that benefits you and me. Can we have that whole archive? I have talked about I know before that I will reread

books, or rewatch the video

because I know I miss something or There’s something I need to hear this time around that I maybe didn’t pick up on or didn’t resonate with me at the time. So there’s lots of information out

there for the weekly app. So the more

I thought about it,

I want you to spend the week kind of contemplating and doing your take actions and turn something else in there. Yeah, you know, can be good or bad. So anyway,

We will have the first break

in July like I do, and in December, so it’s gonna be six weeks

off of each time. And as I’ve made notes

on here, it looks like we’re up to about 350 episodes, so

you’ll have more than enough. By the first break, we’ll have about 350 episodes, you’re going to be in good shape. And then you know what life’s not all about clearing your clutter wants you to

have fun and have joy and take time to paint, hike and do all

that stuff that you love. So we’ll continue with the tube

breaks.

And for those of you

watching on YouTube, you will notice that the purple background is back. I’ve missed that and putting it up made me feel so much better. huge shout out to my friend Marcus. I used to cat sit for them. Isn’t it ironic? Can you imagine me not having cats because I think since I’ve done this podcast, did this after I got married. We had Joey and expanded to five. Yeah, we ended up i think i hoped in one of my podcasts last year that we would adopt a Nina and a gusta also known as medium guests and I couldn’t give them away guys, I know that there’s a need for fostering

but

as black cats, they’re still the least likely to be adopted. And no one was interested in

no one kept looking and it’s very hard not to give your

heart at least for me, to these adorable little kitties that I helped catch that were feral and are not part of our family. So we decided that we were going to give each other the gift of kitties for our anniversary this year. Like you know what we have enough we’re downsizing and working on doing that more. So we are now Happy Cat family of five. So again, if you’ve missed the purple cloth, it is back. I love the background and huge thank you to my friend Marcus.

Okay, and a big announcement,

because I’m going to actually at the end of the month do an episode on this about staying the course when when things get really difficult. I think actually last year, I didn’t participated on publishing my books last year and a comedy of errors happen. And I’m someone

that believes in divine timing

talk about that later on in an episode, but I just have to announce that I am super excited. I spent about two years on these books and you’re going to hear my little when I do a little commercial to me about the books. I’m really proud of this. I sent out query letters and was turned down and one thing after the other and

all gamma again, I’ll go into it a little more detail another episode,

but there were several things that happen. And I knew I had to stay the course on that. And I’m proud of myself, because sometimes you just have to stick with things. every obstacle that you encounter in your life is not necessarily a sign for you to switch gears or switch lanes. I’ve been inspired to do these books for a couple years now. I have this thing where I talk about when I feel like something just boom,

drops into my head. And so

that’s kind of how it was the books. I’m like, Okay, I know that’s coming intuitively, I wasn’t thinking anything about this.

This is a go.

So not always there, the waters easy. So we’ll talk about that a little later on. They’re up on Amazon. I had a debate about this. But getting something on Amazon and other marketplaces opens me up,

allows people to

find out about me. I’m also going to sell the books on my website, because

as you can imagine, Amazon charges me to print as well as takes 60% of the profit. I think it’s 60%. I’m very excited

want to share that and thank you all for listening and tuning in and watching because if you hadn’t,

I don’t know if I could have kept with them books. So this kind of kept me going. Today’s episode was inspired by turning 50 this year. Now I’m going to do another episode on things that I hope you’ve learned by the time you’re 50. But I’m halfway done with my life. If I lived to 90, then you know what, I’m already halfway there. And quite frankly, I don’t know. I mean, however the cards are laid when

my Time’s up. I read an article the other

day that said we’re supposed to our bodies are equipped to

make it to 900 I don’t know if I will have 900 years and in my personal belief system,

although I would love to hear anyone’s thoughts on this because I

always enjoy the conversation. I’ve always believed in reincarnation

and past lives, but as I read more about quantum physics,

they talk about

multiple timelines

and the best way I can describe this is I’m

in this little
