10 Simple Ways To Have A Less Chaotic, Happier Life

Want a less chaotic life? Let’s start with simple things that can be adjusted straight away. A life that is devoid of clutter, busyness and stress equals a simplified, happy and organized life.

There are so many benefits to living an uncluttered life. We hear things like this all time:

Unexpected guests are now a pleasure and not an embarrassment now that I keep my home neat and tidy – Jenny

Being able to say ‘no’ has helped me focus on priorities and I don’t feel like I’m chasing my tail anymore – Lori

I love being able to find things I need without having to retrace my steps – Emma

Now that I can get my kids in on the act of cleaning up, I can see my floor and avoid a painful lego dance – Marni

I feel so calm and relaxed now, just by changing a few bad habits I’ve become much happier – Karen

I started focusing more on the good relationships in my life and found I was happier with less friends – Dawn

10 Simple Ways To Have A Less Chaotic, Happier Life

1. Declutter

The simplest and the most effective way to minimise distraction – is to declutter.

The fewer material things you have, the less clutter you’ll have mentally too.

2. Wake Up Early

Avoid those rushed morning schedules that get your day off to a bad start.

  • Wake up earlier.
  • Enjoy first light.
  • Meditate.
  • Focus on priorities.

You’ll feel calmer and relaxed as you start your day.

3. Let Go

Let go of things that don’t spark joy.

Throw away or donate these items that you no longer wear, need, use or want.

Start with an easy, quick win, that will motivate you to keep going. Start with your:

  • wardrobe
  • pantry
  • living room
  • spare room
  • garage or
  • bathroom.

4. Eat Healthily

This is a very common goal at this time of year.

Think about how to feed your body well. Research foods that help with any illnesses or ailments you have. Eliminate junk food from your diet.

5. Shop Less

If you’re a bit of a shopaholic, think about WHY you shop so much. Boredom? The fear of missing out? perhaps it’s your social escape?

Shopping can’t solve your problems, and often adds to them if you are buying items that you really don’t need or want. Save your money and your time by focusing on some more positive habits.

6. Make Time For Important Things

Forget the I should, I wish, I really want to …. statements and start doing.

  • Read to your children more.
  • Spend quality time with your grandchildren.
  • Phone your friend.
  • Visit your relative and go for a walk.
  • Exercise to lose weight.
  • Start taking action.

7. Don’t Overcommit

Overcommitting kills simplicity. You can try to:

  • Block out quiet time for yourself
  • Say no
  • Plan your day more efficiently.

8. Allow Yourself To Rest

Some might think that doing nothing is a bad thing but setting aside a little R&R can do wonders for your well-being.

It’s important to:

  • recharge your batteries
  • relax and enjoy the moment
  • take some time to reset after a stressful day.

9. Travel Light

Ladies, what’s in your handbag? Clean it out and only carry necessities.

What does the inside of your car look like? If it’s littered with take-away food items and general rubbish then it’s time to clear it out.

What do you take to work each day? Do you need to be lugging everything to and fro? Is there a better alternative?

If you try to carry less things with you on a daily basis you will feel less burdened.

10. Pay Attention

Attention is a valuable possession.

Give your attention to who and what deserves it.

Avoid giving too much of it to time-wasters (toxic relationships) or time-wasting activities (social media, school mom chit-chat in the playground).

Enjoy making changes and living a less chaotic, happier life.
