There’s Only One Way to Get Out of the Gutter

Lessons come to us from everywhere. Having my head in books often, the universe sends me messages from within books. Today I wish to tell you of a quote I happened upon, and how my interest in that quote opened me to receive the insightful explanation of Dr. Dyer, the author of Being in Balance. "It is not a secret," he said, "and we don’t need to wait for an invitation to participate, for in balancing the vision with the thought, we begin to co-create our lives."  Deep.

So You Want to Declutter– but How Do You Start? 

Decluttering is not hard. But one has to distinguish between what's trivial and what's important according to the amount of attention or inattention one gives to things. Each person's capacity to derive importance from "clutter" translates to gratifying moments that matter to that individual.
