No Sidebar

Every day, more stuff comes into our lives: stuff in our home, stuff on our calendar, and stuff cluttering our minds. All that stuff gets in the way of where we really want to go and who we really want to be … it’s time to make a change.

It’s time to get rid of the excess and focus on the essentials.

It’s time for the clarity and peace of mind that come from paring down. It’s time for the freedom and confidence that come from making your own best choices. It’s time to design a simple life.

    I am not familiar with any of these blogs — I will take a look. My husband is a big fan of John Maxwell and completed his big course.

      I hope that you find something of value in the links. I’m not familiar ith John Maxell courses but based on his quotes expect that they must be uplifting. Thanks for commenting.
