Do You Have UFOs?

What are UFOs?

UFO = UnFinished Objects

It happens when you start something with a great deal of excitement and then run out of interest about halfway through. You may be working on a craft project, writing a report, reading a book, or painting a room. It doesn’t matter what it is. You start a task with a picture in your mind of what the outcome should be, but it becomes difficult or boring or you’ll have to make a difficult decision. This is the point when you might put down the project and walk away and it becomes a UFO.

The trick is not to get stubborn about it. If the project isn’t working for you, then you have to let it go. If decisions need to be made to move on, DO IT!  Clutter is just unmade decisions. Don’t let your projects become clutter! If something becomes too difficult, get help or delegate the task to someone else. The important thing is to find a way to move on. Don’t let a UFO hold you back.

Instead of feeling frustrated, you’ll feel free!

Do you struggle with getting and staying organized?

Are you afraid to start an organizing project just to be overwhelmed or lose motivation in the middle, to be left with even more chaos? You are not alone. That’s the fear of most people who don’t have time to allot to a big organizing project.
