Words That Inspire - SIMPLIFY

From Words That Inspire - Julie's 45,
A regular column by Julie Cohen, Jul 31, 2005         

Summary: A motivational newsletter that hightlights a word, it's relevance to you and asks questions on how to enhance your professional and personal lives, all in 45 seconds.

 
What do you gain if you SIMPLIFY?

Dictionary*says:
to reduce to basic essentials, to diminish in scope or complexity, to make more intelligible.


What it REALLY means:
removing clutter and interference from your life and work; looking at large obstacles as the sum of small challenges; choosing to do less, have less, want less.

Why it MATTERS?
SIMPLIFYing, both physically and mentally, leaves more space for creativity, problem-solving and exploring. Decision making is clearer, communication is enhanced and personal enjoyment is increased.

Questions that INSPIRE:
• What personal or professional situation would you like to SIMPLIFY?
• How would SIMPLIFYing make you feel?
• What do you gain if you SIMPLIFY?
• What barriers are in the way of SIMPLIFYing this situation?
• What one action can you make today to SIMPLIFY?

I would love to hear your answers and comments. Take 45 seconds to reply to these questions at Julie@juliecohencoaching.com. I will keep all responses confidential and reply directly to you.
