Sorting Things Out

For too long now I have been saying repeatedly that I need to be sorting things out.

Things from the stuff that needs to go to the charity, items that need to be put on Vinted, finances, paper work, photos, the blog, emails and eating habits.

All things that need to be sorted out.

All things that are quite long jobs, but ones that need to be sorted.

I have talked about them for far too long now, and not actually started on any of them, let alone actually complete any of them.

Last week when I sat and wrote out my list of things that were overwhelming me and things that were stopping me from actually achieving anything I put all these things on the list.

And there were a lot.

But getting them all down on the list was the thing that I needed to do.

When they were all written down, I could finally see them all and work out what I needed to do where.

And actually as if the universe united, I wrote all these items down and then my Google emails, and photo storage actually started shouting at me as I nearly reached maximum on them both. So not only had I got all the blockage written down and out of my head I then got the final push to actually start doing something about it.

So my emails have been getting a good sort out, and then this week I will work massively on my photos, as both have got a little out of control, to be fair one email account had got 30k out of control, all really emails that haven’t even been opened and ones that if they have been read are really not that important as they were read and stored in 2014 so a massive cull was needed and I feel so much better for sorting one email completely and cracking on with the other one and actually deleting a huge chunk of the rubbish that was just sitting in my inbox, just collecting digital clutter to be honest.

But once I do this I do need to work out a system to actually sort these emails regularly and keep on top of them in the future so that this does not get into this state again!
