“E-mail is an “opener,” not a closer. Open it up first thing in the morning and you’re off on a dozen different tasks. Instead, close something from the day before. Finish something first before you open something new.”― Judith Kolberg

Having too many tabs open on your computer can be distracting and prevent true progress on tasks.

Leave only the tabs open that you need for one task at a time.

Finish one thing before you begin another.

Completely check your email, close it, and open it again later in the day.

Having an open mind is the best way to grow and succeed.

There are new ideas, theories, and ways of approaching things.

Great successes come from stepping outside of your comfort zone and being relentless.

One of the world's leading clutter-clearing and space-clearing experts, Karen Kingston, shares her four categories of clutter:
- Things you do not use or love
- Things that are untidy or disorganized
- Too many things in too small a space
- Anything unfinished

What categories do you relate to in your space?

When you feel it’s interfering with your daily life, it’s time to take action.

"𝐈𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝."

The items on your to-do list compound.

You don’t finish 𝑜𝑛𝑒 thing because you have to get this 𝑜𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟 thing done.

Chances are “life” happens and you may not get the second something done.

So now you have two things that you’ve started but not completed.

You don’t get to check them off your list.

The list grows but the ✅ don’t.

Stress grows along with your unchecked list.

It happens to the best of us.

Choose one thing and finish it. ✅ Then one more. ✅
