It sure is easy to become overwhelmed in today’s environment. It’s hard to manage our time, our gadgets, our relationships or our homes. It can be impossible to keep track of our plans, commitments and finances. As our media choices help shape our perceived environment, so do outside influences affect our general views of reality. There is seemingly never enough time to get to the next level that we have envisioned for ourselves. Too many interruptions, changes in employment, the economy, the news (if you’re paying attention) and just everyday life can combine to give us a sense of helplessness in controlling our own destinies. Thus, it becomes more and more critical for each of us to develop skills in the management of our own environments, health and happiness- to a degree, anyway.
Life was so much simpler before! It didn’t change so quickly; you could count on everything being pretty much the same from month to month, from year to year. Technology was always growing, but at a much more predictable rate. Now, we need to do our Spring Cleaning every 8.3 minutes! And since every Spring Cleaning lasts at least 7 hours, it’s no wonder we are all so dysfunctional in some way or another!
This is the time (Spring) to re-focus on those New Year’s resolutions, trim them up a bit and put the reasonable ones into practice for ourselves. In order to make the upcoming summer (and year) into a productive, happy one, let’s look at a few ways to accomplish a simplifying effort.
Have you ever gotten tired of your car to the point of wanting to sell it and get a new one, only to rediscover why you liked it so much in the first place? After fixing it up, cleaning and waxing it, you decided to keep it a while longer. In many cases, we can do the same thing with our relationships and our chosen environments (and jobs) as well! Spring Cleaning means finally getting around to tackling that TO DO list – even if it means some discomfort getting started. Some people are really good at periodic maintenance; but sadly, most of us put off the hard tasks like cleaning and maintenance until the whole process creates a sort of depression. We prefer to be lazy and wallow in our chosen comfort zones with regard to relationships and many forms of maintenance. We need a little motivation!
When you finish a large job or difficult task, you feel great! You sleep better, which is excellent, and you get a renewed sense of general happiness in life. After a good Spring Cleaning, life is simpler and more satisfying. The lows aren’t as low and the highs are more frequent. These days, we have more to clean than ever before, given the addition of computers, cell phones, software, hardware and information overload that have all become part of this technological madness. It’s enough to make anyone dysfunctional in some manner or other! So how does one get motivated to begin and stay focused on such a huge undertaking? It varies from person to person, of course, but in essence the process is the same. You just make a plan and jump into it, disregarding as many distractions a possible for a time.
A good plan always includes setting things up to make future maintenance easier, too. This can also mean changing our habits, which can really be difficult! For example, storing things in temporary places can lead to problems down the road -we all do it- but instead, we are trying to take care of small tasks as they become necessary in order to avoid pain later. A new habit is born! Work a little now so we don’t have to work five times as hard later.
Music makes any job easier and/or more fun. And if that music happens to contain a subliminal track to persuade us to change more easily and help visualize our goals, so much the better! This is a technology we can afford to add to our software library! In fact, in many cases (ask our clients), we can’t afford not to! If you prefer your own music, choose Silent Subliminal to play in the background. Pick the Ocean Waves format tracks for sleep, while working on visualizing that dream or goal. And if we don’t have an existing title that fits your needs, the Sprudio Subliminal Audio Studio will happily create a custom subliminal track (CD or .mp3 download) for you!
Good luck in your Spring Cleaning, whether you choose our motivational tools or not! And check our prices, and compare them to other subliminal audio producers. Let’s call it what it is: Cheap! But we never sacrifice quality; our product has been called the most effective by many, many customers who have tried them all! Plus, no one uses the music or offers nearly the amount of options that Sprudio does.
