Keep It Simple

Simplify Your Life
Do you go out of your way to complicate your life?
Many of us act before we think, live on the edge, overcommit ourselves, shoot from the hip, fail to learn from mistakes, step over a dime to save a penny, procrastinate until the last second, refuse to set priorities…and the list goes on. Then we say, ‘We need more time in the day,’ ‘We want more balance in life,’ and of course, ‘We’re stressed out.’ As Confucius said, ‘Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated. Here are 24 ways to simplify your life:
Let it go
Leave work at work
Tell the truth
No is an option
Listen
Ask for help
Live with less
Don’t look back
Learn from others
Appreciate what you have
Ignore distractions
Unsubscribe
Find a shortcut
Don’t try to win all the time
Plan for an emergency
Say I’m sorry
Be honest with yourself
Learn the meaning of enough
Fight the big battles
Avoid the drama
Don’t try to be perfect
Learn by mistakes
Think before you speak
Prioritize

Great way to sum it up. Appreciate your sharing with the rest of us.
Just printed this and hung it up next to my desk. Thinking I’ll hang one in husband’s office as well as one in the kitchen, too. (or does printing three for constant reminders go against keeping it simple? LOL)
Thanks for another fabulous poster, Frank!
Excellent truths! All very much needed on a daily basis!
Thanks Frank for adding so much value to the lives of many.
Just printed this one out! Thank you for the wonderful inspiration.
Mavis, Julie, Leyane, Gail
Thanks so much for your kind words. I’m so glad that you like the poster. We had a lot of fun creating it.
Have a wonderful day 🙂
Best,
Frank
Thanks Frank. You rock.
Frank,
Found this via our mutual friend Susan Mazza.
It’s printed out and like Gail, I will find a prominent place to display in my office. My favorite is “no is an option”.
Christopher / Jennifer
Thanks for dropping by. Much appreciated.
Jennifer, I like that one too. Even though it’s logical people often find it hard to do.
Best,
Frank
love it frank
Thank you for not including the word “stupid” on it. That always felt so counter-productive!
You’re right Pamela. Keep it simple says it all.
Have an awesome day!
Best,
Frank
Thanks for a great reminder. Rules that are so simple yet easily forgotten. It is good to keep these visible to remind us of the simpler way to live. I think we, sometimes, create our own melodrama.
Hi Vera
I absolutely agree. Some folks make their life more difficult. That being said, easier said than done.
Have an awesome day!
Best,
Frank
