Overwhelmed? Easy Ways to Go Simple Instead of Complex

Posted on July 16th, 2009, by Meggin McIntosh, Ph.D.

Here are some (reasonably) simple ideas that you can begin to consider to eliminate some of the complexity:

Pick up the phone (vs. emailing endlessly) to try to find a time to set up an appointment.
Simplify your wardrobe (e.g., choose one color or hue family).
Make your hair easier to manage (vs. having ‘high maintenance’ hair).
Use simpler and fewer cosmetics (vs. scores or even hundreds of products).
Use the simplest of household items (vs. those that are hard to work with due to their complexity or the way they have to be cleaned and put away).

What would you add here? Please put it in the comment section so we can all benefit!
