You’re not alone
Powerful words
When someone says you’re not alone suddenly anything is possible. I think the most daunting thing about getting most organizing tasks started is that feeling of being alone. I hear many of my clients say this – that the overwhelm comes from feeling alone with a project and not even knowing where to start in order to solve it.
Can the mind that created the problem also solve it?
Some say the mind that created the problem can’t solve it. I don’t know if it is true but what I do know is that bringing in outside resources has always been a relief and a great help. Not that you/we don’t know how to do these things we get stuck on. I know how to run but I’m not going to do it unless I have a trainer running with me! (Or I’m being chased.)
A trainer is also – well – trained. I also have resources and years of know-how. But a lot of the magic in the mix is that people feel they have a partner in the process when they bring me or other pros in to work with them on whatever is at hand. This is no little thing either. I say magic purposefully.
Suddenly the piles and the clutter don’t seem quite so menacing. Organization is a place that doesn’t seem so far away. The scene is set for success. They start to have my eyes. Because I see it all done, how it can be, the potential. Ahh. This is the beauty of partnership.
