Simplifying life is refreshing. But I find it hard to achieve. I tend to over-complicate things, which I know is at least partly connected to my perfectionistic tendencies.

I am an over-achiever. I take on a lot, sometimes bite off more than I can chew. The last few years I weighed myself down with too much and took paths that have been very very tough to navigate. Now that life is getting easier, and some of those mountains have been climbed, I hope things will just naturally become simpler.

Over-complicating stuff brings stress and unnecessary work. I would love to streamline more of my life. I have been successfully cutting out crap at work over the past few months and it has been refreshing.

Thankfully, my husband is very good at simplifying life. In fact, he over-simplifies things sometimes. But he balances me out well, so if I get stuck I shall look to him for inspiration.
