Secret To Reduce Mental Clutter

You have a very busy life and diligently organize yourself with To-Do Lists.

However, after you have prepared your To-Do List and start prioritizing it, you realize you are feeling uncomfortable with the thought of not being able to accomplish what should be done. Generally speaking your List is overwhelming; there is just so much to do. This in turn creates a sense of panic. Your emotional level is not conducive to enjoy what you are doing. So each day is filled with a high level of stress as you try to achieve your goals. Does this sound like you in a varying degree?

What we are introducing to you is not really a secret to reduce mental clutter if you belong to the Psychology field or have been a client.

The secret to reduce mental clutter is called NLP Chunking, which is an application to alleviate and understand the mechanics your mind.

This NLP Chunking is based on the concept that a human conscious mind can only retain 5 to 9 thoughts simultaneously. However your unconscious mind can mull through unlimited thoughts. To achieve your daily tasks requires your conscious mind. It may be affected by your unconscious mind too, as it recognizes you are having difficulty focusing on so many tasks, which in turn is causing your stress. Using this system works with the mechanics of your mind and how it operates. As we cannot change our physical makeup, it is better to work with it.

Not to worry…the following is how you overcome and utilize the benefit of being able to focus on several things at a time:

  1. Create your To-Do List.
  2. Now group the activities on your List into Sub-lists, example: Children, Home, Work, Finances, Pets, etc.
  3. f there are more than 9 items to a list break these lists down even further, example, Children, Appointments, Sports, etc.,
  4. Write each list on a separate page.
  5. Now instead of looking at multiple tasks to be achieved you are simply looking at a few.
  6. Now prioritize your pages.
  7. Deal with each task in a group that must be done today.

This is oversimplified "NLP Chunking" so that you may use it immediately and reduce your mental clutter.

It gives you a general overview of how it may be implemented, however it can and is applied to many aspects of life and business. To get a full overview of the potential of this system search the Internet using the term we are using or hop down to your local library for some of the literature.

The benefit of applying this application is to relieve your mind of being mentally cluttered; to stay focused on what you are responsible for; attend to your family and enjoy the daily satisfaction of accomplishment. Give it a try and enjoy the relief it affords.
