Procrastination Avoidance


I've been on a travel kick for a while, so let's stay on that path. When I get home from a business or personal trip-I'm generally aiming for a hello to my family, a shower and my bed. But, before I can get that reward, I have to unpack, wash all of my travel laundry and put everything away. I unpack so that procrastination doesn't have a chance to creep in. Without doing so, I feel as if I'm still in travel mode. It normally takes an hour or so to unpack and put away the things that don’t have to be laundered, but it can take a few hours to wash, dry, fold and put away everything. It's worth it!! The next day, I'm back into my normal routine and don't have mounds of laundry and suitcases mockingly staring at me from across the room. Ah, a return to normalcy.

About Me

My photo
Washington, DC, United States
I am Dr. Darnita L. Payden, Executive Director/Owner of Dr. DClutter™ Life Management, a division of PreciousOnes™ LLC. I have a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology and over 20 years of experience working to help clients discover their strengths and talents. Having worked as a therapist, college professor, grief specialist and trainer, I have encountered in my journey many of the issues my clients may face. I have a sincere desire to help you find clarity, organization and independence in your life and environments. I know that life can be hectic, but I desire to help my clients bring as much order, peace and enjoyment back into their lives as is possible. What separates me from the norm? I focus on the client from a holistic perspective. I realize that most people desire a functional and an organized life, but may simply need support, understanding and information about why they have the habits or tendencies that have led to disorganization. I do not perform “quick fixes” or provide “one-size-fits-all” guidance, but I strive to provide strategies to my clients that will be life changing and useful for a lifetime. Dr. DClutter™ is a name well earned!!
