I just finished running a one-day course "Organising for Simplicity" at Sydney Community College at Rozelle in Sydney. Eleven lovely participants, and they all got on so well! On a beautifully sunny Saturday in Sydney, the last day of Autumn, they even spent their lunch together chatting away happily.
I always say, there is something about clutter and organising that inspires people to talk.
I often get great advice and insight from participants, too. I still use "Marie's words of wisdom": "Whenever you consider buying something, imagine where it will go or what will have to be removed to make way for it.".
One participant yesterday was enthusiastic about her new clothes buying habits. She said - "Once I used to buy anything (within reason) that I liked. Now, if I need a red top for instance, I go and buy only a red top. And red tops find me, too! And I don't buy anything else.".
No doubt about it - we're an over-acquisitive society.
Bye, Glenda
