☆ As a professional declutterer, here are my 3 tips for purging holiday decorations
  + stars: | 2024-12-13 | by ( Julia Williamson | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
I'm a professional declutterer and work with clients in helping them get rid of things. Regardless of how hard you go with your holiday decorations, chances are you have too much. At their best, holiday decorations conjure warm images of childhood. If you're decorating for Christmas, for example, take the time to determine which lights work and which do not. If you're a varsity-level decorator, color code your bins so it's easy to see which one holds the decorations for a particular holiday.

I hired a professional organizer to help me deal with the clutter in my closet. I put all the clothes and accessories in trash bags and shoved them into my closet. I wouldn't be able to go up and down my stairs countless times to throw out the dozen trash bags. Millie Naor, professional organizer and founder of Bella Organizers, came to my apartment one Monday morning. Once the closet was empty, it was time to decide what to keep and what to throw away.

This summer, three generations of my family — from my grandmother to my mom and aunts down to me — got together at my grandmother's house to put on a two-day garage sale. We spent a lot of time organizing the garage sale togetherAll three generations of my family combined our things for the two-day garage sale, where we grouped items, laid them out on tables, and invited neighbors and passersby to peruse. The garage sale took massive organization between the family to pick a weekend and gather all the items together. Each family member could preshop the sale if one member got rid of something another wanted. It helped us connect with the community, give our items new life, and clear up space in our homes.

☆ 'Vampire tasks' are killing your productivity at work, says workplace expert—how to focus and get more done
  + stars: | 2024-02-08 | by ( Morgan Smith | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +3 min
Cecily Motley, the co-founder of Harriet, an AI-powered workplace assistant, calls these repetitive, tedious activities "vampire tasks" — and warns that getting bogged down by admin work is the number one thing that kills people's productivity. "It's those dull, time-sucking tasks like scheduling meetings and responding to emails that drain your energy and take time away from deep-focus work or higher-value projects," she explains. "That constant influx of administrative tasks can hurt productivity the most." Responding to every notification as it comes in can make it harder to refocus on the work you were previously engaged in. Instead, Motley suggests turning off your notifications at work and checking incoming messages/alerts all at once during your admin period.

My 'poverty mentality' was holding me back, but getting rid of those items freed up mental and physical space. But I hadn't dealt with one of the most significant factors underlying my hoarding instincts: poverty mentality. What is 'poverty mentality'? But my poverty mentality kept me living as though I were barely employed and living paycheck to paycheck. The opposite of my poverty mentality isn't to act like I'm rich (I'm not) or spend every dime I make.
