Way back when, I was a video producer working for a large corporation doing a major layoff. I was hired by the corporate PR department to help put a spin on this process – “it’s not downsizing, it’s RIGHTSIZING.” Yeah, right.
Fast forward to the present. I think that little phrase may have some meaning in our current state of affairs as we hunker down and sort through our various piles of things. How’s this?
Ø Are your clothes rightsized? Now could be the time to get rid of those multiple sizes of things: the “fat” jeans or the “if I only lose 5 pounds” dress. Having clothes that are smaller than you currently are takes you out of the present – and that’s the only place where you can make changes. Clothes that are too large are just waiting to be of use again. This might be the right time for rightsizing your clothes!
Ø Is your home office rightsized for you? I had a client who was squished into a very small desk space and feeling a little overwhelmed. He was a big guy with multiple projects who needed to stretch out – but had forgotten that he could. Setting him up with a bigger desk area was just the ticket. A lot of that day-to-day anxiety decreased because he could see everything he needed to work on. It’s amazing what small changes in your office can do to help productivity and attitude.
Just a little tidbit to think about as you go about your business…
