Sometimes I think a lot of my life's clutter is in my head! You know how it is: those nights when you lie awake, or half-awake, making to-do lists, or ruminating on a particularly nagging chore?
A friend calls this doing laps on the mental racetrack. Sound familiar? (No wonder we feel tired in the morning!)
What I wonder is whether those things that keep us from a good night's sleep are really all that necessary. Couldn't many cluttered thoughts, like all those pieces of actual clutter, simply be chucked out?
I recently found the site Zen Habits, and there's some good advice lurking in there. What about a few strategies for defeating the urge to do useless tasks?
