Does It Still Add To Your Life?

Happy Monday!! It’s hard to believe that Easter is coming up this weekend!! Where does the time go??

Last week, the blog wasn’t updated as much as usual because I needed to take a break for a few days. If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen why – I finally moved back home!! Yay!!

I’ve been out of my condo for the past three years because of my accident and all of the help that I needed with my recovery. I’m finally at a stage where I don’t need quite as much care and can manage more on my own. So it’s time to start living more independently and be back in my own place.

I’m still sharing more about my road to recovery, check back tomorrow for another installment, but in the mean-time I just wanted to give you a real-time update.

The Things That No Longer Add To Your Life

I figured that this was fitting for my Monday Mantra since now that I have moved home it is time to go through my stuff and get rid of things that no longer fit the “new me”. I did a smaller clean out back in October but over the next several months it’s time for a great big purge.

Over the years I have collected a lot of stuff. Too much stuff!! I still have things from elementary and high school!! Now that I am approaching my mid-30s (insert crying emoji) it’s time to let go of the past and to move forward. 

I’m not the same person I was before and some of these things are from my “old” life. I no longer have a need for them. They are just remenants of a life and a person that I no longer am. It’s time for them to go. Moving forward, I am only going to hang onto things that add to my life. Things that I need for the work that I am/will be doing. 

I feel like, in a way, it is time for a fresh start. Getting rid of the things that no longer add to my life is the first step.
