A place for . . .

Though not exactly part of the Carpe diem Life acronym, one bit of old advice that I’ve been working on — and far from mastering — is:  A place for everything and everything in its place. You know, everything should have a place to be stored and that it should be tidily returned there when not in use.

From what I’ve read, this proverb is associated with several old-timers including Benjamin Franklin.

I’ve taken it one step further by adding “Reducing stuff” to the list. 

“Reduce stuff, live simply, a place for what I choose to keep, and everything in its place.”

It’s the “reduce” and “simply” part that’s giving me fits.  Oh, and I’m not doing too well on the “everything in its place” either.

Today, I’m going to CHOOSE to focus on that phrase and take ACTION. 

“In the beginning, you just need to get MOVING.   Try different things.  It’s much easier to start doing something RIGHT if you’ve already started doing SOMETHING.”  John Maxwell
