Spring Purge
In the midst of a spring purge, not just cleaning. I do it quarterly (or more) and am still surprised by what I'm willing to let go. I still hold on to a few treasures, but for the most part, if it's not functional, it's gone. Here's a picture of one of my "keeps" (I allow myself at least one per purge). Yes, the doctor has to practice what she preaches and teaches.

Pair It
Let's face it, chores don't usually evoke the "warm fuzzies", but that doesn't have to be the case. Try pairing a chore you generally avoid, with a task you enjoy. For me-it's dusting (ugh!!) and music, or folding laundry, while watching television. What's your pair?

Change the World
People often say they want to change the world, but remember the world is simply made up of individuals. So if you help one person, you've changed the world. Doesn't seem as daunting, does it?

Not a Good Look
Ungratefulness is not a good look for anyone. Try consideration and gratitude instead. They're both one size fits all.

Finders, Users
If you can't find it, you can't use it. Take a few moments daily to recover lost items.

Happiness or Joy?
Happiness is often based on what's going on in life at that moment. Joy and contentment are states of mind and being, which aren't based on happenstance.

Giving
There's a beautiful song, "I Give Myself Away", which stresses the need to be available for others. It's a great model for life.

Continuum
No part of the life management process is any greater or less than the other. It's a holistic experience.

Left and Right
Has life been unkind? Having a bad day? Need a pick-me-up? Look to the left. Now look to the right. Someone next to you could very well be having a worse time than you. Help take your mind off of your problems by empathizing with someone else. It's a win-win situation.

About Me
- Dr. DClutter™
- 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!!
