We respect your time.

This newsletter will take

4.21 minutes to read.

Remove all magnets, papers, business cards photos, calendars, phone numbers, etc. that are on the surface of your refrigerator.

Decide what really needs (and doesn't need) to be attached to the fridge. Get rid of anything outdated or that you no longer need. File what you want to keep, but that doesn't need to be displayed.

Finally, display what you do want on the fridge in an organized fashion.

GON Reader Word of the Year

My New Year's Eve newsletter generated quite a bit of response from our GON readers. It zoned in on the topic of choosing your very own word of the year...one that speaks to you and that you can use as inspiration the entire year through. I wanted to share a few of those letters with you.

By the way, if you haven't chosen your word of the year yet, it's not too late. Every day of the year is a great day for a fresh start. Here goes...

GON Reader Letter #1

Embrace Life

Dear Maria,

I have been trying to attitude-change this year. I chose "EMBRACE" as my word.

Then I read your list in your newsletter, and I'm thinking, I am going to try to embrace all of that: embrace life, embrace opportunities, to be open and move forward.

Thank you for that one thought, Choose one word. It helped me to realize that I want to Embrace Life this year.

Many thanks and wishing you, your team, and other GON readers, a very hopeful 2023.

-- Maxine, Victoria, Australia

GON Reader Letter #2

Sparkle

Happy New Year! My word of the year is SPARKLE.

I have enjoyed your wonderful newsletter for over 10 years and I have been decluttering since 2001. My husband is the enthusiastic packrat and he is slowly starting to purge some of his treasurers (junk).

It is now time to deep clean and keep my home clean and make sure that everything I do for myself has a sparkle.

I am also a scrapbooker and card maker, so I have plenty of sparkle already in my rugs!

Hugs,

-- Maryann Mawhinney, Dillsburg, PA

GON Reader Letter #3

Restoration

My husband has had a bunch of health issues this year and we have both gained weight and neglected our fitness routines, so our word for 2023 is "Restoration".

Wishing you all the best for 2023. Thank you for your daily emails!

-- Cathy Beich

GON Reader Letter #4

Ease

My word for the new year is “ease.” Think, act, speak, respond, and plan with ease.

-- Elizabeth Joy

GON Reader Letter #5

Essential

My word is: Essential. I relate to this word, essential; not in the utilitarian sense, but in regard to that which is essential at one’s very core.

This is a word to remind me to view my thoughts and actions in terms of what truly serves my greater purpose; a reminder not to waste the precious time I have in which to live out my life.

Thank you for all the inspiration you offer, and I wish you and your family great joy in this coming year!

-- Maria Shere, Santa Rosa, CA

Blessed

BLESSED is my word for the year!

-- Cynise Jefferson

GON Reader Letter #7

Unclutter

Happy New Year!! My word is UNCLUTTER!!

-- Dell Harbin

"Thank you for challenging me every day!"

-- Joyce Steinberg
