It was making me angry. I had let it go for quite some time. Every time I walked by the room I closed the door so that I wouldn't be reminded of the thing that I should be doing. The thing I'm talking about is cleaning and organizing the pile of papers on my office desk. I've been telling myself that I need to spend some time organizing my office. I get a bunch of mail each day. Much of it doesn't make it past the garbage can but the important stuff goes up to my office and there is always something to organize. The last time that I spent a few hours up in my office cleaning I felt great when I was done. I hate clutter but it seems that there is always some that seems to gather and stay put. How many times have I said to myself that I'm just going to throw it all away and then I won't have to look at it? It certainly is not the best way, but hasn't the thought crossed your mind too? So I ventured in again. I knew that if I only spend 1-2 hours cleaning that it would make a big difference. At first it seems unconquerable but as time goes on a method to the madness begins to appear. Some things go in the circular file, what a good feeling, while others are put in order in their proper place. In a fairly short period of time I begin to feel better about my office situation. After spending the time that I know I should cleaning my domain I feel happier and more able to function efficiently. It's worth it. Everyone has areas in their life to clean up. Most often the best practice is to recognize the need and do something about it. I've heard it said that many business people operate with clutter and chaos because it's a sign of upward movement and growth.. I understand the concept but also realize the need for order in my life. We're all different. It's important that you find the best way for you to be efficient. One of the things that brings about feelings of order and growth in my life is making sure that I'm taking care of my health and my personal workouts. After making working out a lifestyle over these many years I can honestly say that I can feel slow and listless after taking only one day away from my workouts. It may be more mental than physical, but no matter, it registers with me and I don't like it. No matter what your challenge is you can meet it more efficiently and with more energy if your body feels strong and healthy. You've been given a special gift. Your health should take care of you for an entire lifetime if you take some important steps to make sure that you treat it well. Making time to become or stay healthy will give you an energy and passion to meet all of the other challenges that present themselves in your life. Get moving, Fred Nicklaus
