How The Clean Desk Policy Could Shift Your Focus And Change Your Life…

Have you heard the phrase “clean desk, clean mind”? Well, there’s much more to it—a clean desk (and not just a desk) means a healthier, better life.

Do you often find yourself frustrated, going through a pile of items, looking for that particular one that was just there?

Have you spent ages in front of the closet, looking for the perfect thing to wear, but it seems like you have nothing?

Have you impulse-bought something that was lying in the packaging for weeks?

If so—you probably just have too much stuff. Or too much on your mind—or both, as those two problems usually go together. If that generates frustration, nervousness, or anxiety—you are probably looking for a way out.

With numerous magical solutions that have sprung up in recent years, it can be hard to decide which one will actually work. But the answer is delightfully simple—minimalism. Why should you need to employ elaborate strategies, if you want to live more simply?

Don’t get crushed under the weight of your things—and your thoughts.

In this day and age, with everything in abundance, it’s easy to just get cluttered. Not just in your closet, not on your desk, but also in your life. This simple yet effective toolbox of solutions will help you get back that inner peace you want so badly.

From your living room, your kitchen, your food, clothes, and work to travel, and everything surrounding you, minimalism is always the right answer. Art, fashion, and architecture—they all have adopted the mindset of “less is more”. And so should you.

Thanks to Minimalism, you will discover:

• The actual definition of minimalism—to avoid misconceptions

• What causes us to keep getting more and more things

• How to declutter your whole life without wasting your time

• 8 common mistakes made by beginners that you’ll be able to avoid

• A short and manageable routine that will make you a master of minimalism

• Why—and how—minimalism goes hand in hand with health

• How to help others simplify their lives as well

And much more.

Don’t be mistaken—changing your habits is a process. It will take time, work, and effort. But once you have committed to living a minimal life, you will realize why it’s so important.

According to the LA Times and NPR, the average American household has 300,000 items in it today and the average size of the American home has nearly tripled in size over the past 50 years.

Yet, you have to pay a high price to carry this unbearable heaviness of possessions. Research has shown, a cluttered home is a stressful home that negatively affects your health. The evidence is clear, the more you own the higher the negative impact on your mental wellbeing.

Stop getting sucked into the never-ending spiral of having and needing more and more to compensate for real joy and happiness in life.

Become the master of having less—all while becoming more. Free your mind and improve your mindset in the process.
