Organizing the Mind

I once heard something along the lines of a clean house is a reflection of one's mind.  I'm totally paraphrasing but that's the gist of it.  Upon returning from visiting my mom that's exactly what I set out to do.  I needed to clear my head and that began with my apartment.  Time out for keeping crap that I haven't used...ever.  Fortunately, I'm not into tchotchkes or else I'd be totally screwed.  lol  There are a few of my close friends, Shak included, that are really good and minimalizing and organizing their lives.  She totally has a place for everything and everything has it's place.  She has a really good rule about not keeping something around (especially clothes) if she hasn't used them in 6 months.  There are some people who are a bit OCD; I don't desire that necessarily, but I have to be better.  It was one of my recent determinations for my life.  I not only feel better but I can think better when I know where the hell things are.  Organization, is not my strong suit but it's about to be.  lol  

The best thing about the hours of work I put in yesterday is that I found some notes I'd written regarding ideas I've had.  I also found the very very original beginning of the script that I'm working on and all other subsequent notes pertaining to it.  I felt a surge of energy and recharged creatively.  I've been having a writer's block lately and it sucks!  That's why I decided to clear out my house so my brain could breathe better.  This purge is a way to get myself even more disciplined.  I used to feel like discipline was like being in prison.  Why can't I just do what I want when I want?  Well, what I am discovering is that without more discipline I cannot truly be prepared for success.  I am not where I want to be because I am not ready to capitalize on that winning opportunity just yet.  All is not lost... starting from today onward.  Everyday and every moment is about reaffirming my determinations.  It starts from the most minute to get to the grand.  They are one in the same, truly.  My thoughts and notes are now in one place and I am building on them currently.  I still have more work to do but I'm super close.  I love being a winner.  hahahahaha

100.

p.s.  My mom is much better now, thankfully.  The surgery was an uber success and she is now cancer free. :)
