{Simplify Your Life} Project One

Happy New Year!  Hope everyone is enjoying their fresh start today!

Today we’re starting what will be a wonderful year long journey in simplifying our lives.  If you haven’t already, check out Tsh Oxenreider’s eBook One Bite at a Time.  This is what I will be working through and you can join me here every Tuesday to share yourprogress.

 {Simplify Your Life} Project One

Let’s take a look at the first project, shall we?

Eat Your Frog
 {Simplify Your Life} Project One

Tsh wasn’t the first to introduce me to the idea of eating frogs.  My friend Shannon actually explained the concept to me quite some time ago. I found it to be a useful little tidbit, but failed to make use of it on a daily, or even weekly basis.

Long-story-short, your “frog” is the item on your to-do list that you’re dreading the most.  If you put on your Big Girl Panties and get that task done first thing, you’ll be amazed how smooth the rest of your day goes!

 {Simplify Your Life} Project One

I’m still studying my frogs as I eat them as they are never the same from day to day.  So far these have been my frogs: hand-washing dishes, cleaning bathrooms, balancing our transaction register, and pretty much anything that involves being on the phone.  I have to admit though, getting these distasteful tasks out of the way early really improves me day!

So what frog should you be eating?  Is it exercising? Putting away laundry? Scrubbing toilets? Tackling your budget?  Please share in the comments!

We’re also starting something new to go along with this series!  Our very first LINK PARTY!  Can you tell I’m excited?  So come on over and link up what you are doing to Simplify Your Life this week!  (Don’t forget to check out a few of the other blogs who have linked up!)
