She Decluttered a Drawer
Have you ever felt the urge to simplify your life but found yourself struggling to take the first step? If so, you're not alone. Some time back, a sister reached out to me with a heartfelt desire to declutter her life, recounting how she'd managed to tackle a single drawer.
She told me that every so often, she'd open up that drawer and just look at it.
She said it probably sounded silly.
It didn’t.
Not at all.
I smile every time I think of her opening that drawer.
I understand.
Because decluttering isn't merely about tidiness; it's about transformation.
And that drawer is far more than a tidy space in the midst of clutter and chaos.
It’s possibility - the possibility of something different.
It's potential. It's hope.
Because if you can declutter one drawer, you can do two.
And from there, perhaps a cupboard, then a room.
Bit by tiny bit, you can transform your life, one tiny drawer at a time.
And it all starts with a decision.
That today is the day you begin!
Start today!
- Set your intention. Get clear on why you want to declutter.
- Make du'a. Ask Allah for His help!
- Pick something small and easy, like a drawer, and just start! Don't overthink it, just start.
- Celebrate your success! Thank Allah.
- Look at that decluttered space and see the potential.
Repeat. Repeat, Repeat.
