If you listen to successful people talk about what makes them successful, one of elements is being clear about what they want. And it's not just a vague idea, like to be happy, or to be wealthy. Their goals are SMART goals, they are: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and Timely. So, what's outcome you are going for? How will you know when you reach it?

Everything around you affects you. Whether it's a pile of clutter, a relationship that is dragging you down, or a broken doorbell - everything is part of what you are creating, whether you are conscious of it or not.

Learning about Feng Shui will give you a heightened awareness of how you interrelate with everything in your environment. That's quite a responsibility. So, question becomes - do you want to go through your life hoping things work out, or do you want to design a fulfilling and passionate life for yourself? Do you want to be cause or effect?

Applying Feng Shui with intention will set your life on an altered course. You're making a commitment - it's powerful. I've seen clients begin Coaching, or Feng Shui, feeling stuck in an aspect of their lives, and within one week had several options magically open up to them.

What you focus on expands, and when you move from focusing on feeling stuck, to a wider view of focusing on outcomes, Universe steps in to support you.

1. If you want to simplify your life, move to a smaller home. You will collect things to fill available space. Moving to a smaller living space inevitably means making choices about what is going with you.

2. You always have more stuff than you think. When you start to fill boxes to move, you are certain to not have enough boxes. Be prepared to be horrified at amount of stuff you have. There is a saying in Feng Shui “there is no hiding from Feng Shui eyes”. There is also no hiding from view of everything you own sitting in boxes in front of you. Now you know what has been affecting your life.

3. Even if you've been vigilant with clutter, you will still be surprised by how much you have. All those nooks and crannies that don't usually register on clutter radar screen will burst forth to grab your attention when you move.

4. Packing and moving stirs up all your emotions - you need to be kind to yourself. Sleep well, eat well, take time for renewal. Moving house is ranked right up there with divorce and unemployment as top stress creators. If more than one of these happens at same time effect is multiplied.

5. Part of moving process is celebrating all you're grateful for in what you are leaving behind. All gifts, lessons, environment that has sheltered you and been such a big part of who you are, and were....
