Getting organised isn’t just about what you see, it’s about what you feel.
Have you ever been in a completely strange or unusual situation that had you scared? Not the kind of dark alley at midnight scared, the type where you fear the unknown. Maybe you really didn’t know what was going to happen next? Perhaps you were somehow vulnerable and totally our of your comfort zone. I made a pretty big decision recently that put me in this kind of situation. Something really surprised me, I mean it really really surprised me. The simplicity of organised spaces and actions. It built a safe cocoon of sheer confidence around me when I could have gone into fear. Now if this is sounding a bit out of left field hang in there with me.The particular situation I put myself in was centered around being admitted to hospital. I realized weeks before that this was going to be only the second time I’ve ever been in hospital, how lucky am I. But, that also meant there was a fear about the unknown. How would I react to the anesthetic? Am I allergic to any drugs? Would they find something during the surgery that wan’t right? I have a long history with hospitals being a carer. More recently caring for my husband after a serious bicycle accident. When I was younger my mother spent years in and out with chemo and radiation therapy, so these fears had some real life experiences behind them. If you know me personally you probably know I’m pretty good at putting on the brave face in difficult situations. That doesn’t mean I’m not scared it’s just that you don’t see it. Anyone else relate? I’d more than anything love to share my organised living habits that give me self-confidence. Hope these will help next time you’re in a confidence slump or in a scary situation.Getting organised is a powerfully resilient way to build your self-confidence. What’s even better is it will also build confidence and a sense of security in those around you.
