Hey guys and welcome back to the Clutterbug Podcast. Today I want to talk about Habits. The good,

the bad, and the ugly. I really think that habit is sort of the foundation of our lives and if we have a lot of positive habits we can have a lot of positive outcomes and if we have a lot of sort of negative

habits obviously we're going to have negative outcomes and what I mean by I

guess a habit are those things that we do without even realizing that we do them every single day or on a regular

basis.

So obviously brushing our teeth is a habit and washing our face is a habit and the people who are

really into fitness, you know, working out every day is a habit

it's it's things you don't even realize that you're doing chewing my nails is a is a habit that would probably be considered a bad one. So we have all these things that we sort of doing, I guess,

subconsciously that are shaping our lives. It's the little things that we just do without even thinking about that is having a really big impact on our lives.

So let's talk about habits and how to change them, how to start new ones, and what it really means when it comes to your home.

Obviously, I mean, my whole channel and this podcast is about your house and becoming clutter-free

just because it's been really life changing for me.

For my anxiety, for my stress, for the way the house looks, I mean that's a side effect.

The really big thing that has changed is just my happiness level and the fact that I'm saving a ton of time

not having to look for things anymore and I'm not feeling that anxiety that comes with having clutter. I still have anxiety when I leave the house, you know, I have a lot of anxiety when I leave the house, but at least when I'm home, I am definitely now anxiety free.

And honestly, I didn't even realize that the clutter was causing me anxiety at the time.

I was just so used to it.

I was so used to every closet being jam-packed and not being able to find things.

It was just the way I lived that I didn't even realize the difference in my mood, in my stress levels, until all of that was gone.

Then it was like, I finally could just take a deep breath and relax and feel really, really happy and content in my home.

I think the big change that happened to enable me to go from crazy drowning and clutter

to a pretty clean and tidy house perpetually was a few key happens. and habits that a lot of us have and I definitely had and sometimes I can fall back into doing this,
