Back to Basics

Making a change can be difficult. Losing focus is a big problem. Focusing on too many things spreads your focus too thin. Or maybe you prefer the carrying too much slows your progress idea. However you put it, getting rid of what is not important can be helpful to bring change. This is a useful way to move an apartment, streamline a business or change your management tactics.

Personally, to mark a new period or change, I clean my place of residence and maybe move some things around. (A new quarter, another semester of doctoral classes and a new year) It is a way for me to clear my head and gain new perspectives. I know. It isn't a mind-blowing revelation, but it does work. Why be all big and fancy about it when a simple solution works just as well? Going back to basics is a great way to refocus no matter what you happen to be doing.
