As a reminder, for the next few days, we're focusing on ways to successfully clear our minds for a sense of well-being.

If you missed the past two tips, you can find them here:

Here's tip number 3:

3. Stop putting things off:
The reason that some of our TO DO lists get so long in the first place is because it's easy to put things off. A sure-fire way to have a cluttered mind is to be continually adding to our TO DO list but then never getting to anything on it. Always remember, the list-making is only part one of getting things done, the list-doing part is the second part.

The plethora of tasks we need to accomplish can crowd our minds and make actually carrying out the work seem overwhelming. Make an effort to do easy tasks as they come up, like putting a jacket in the closet instead of throwing it over a chair, cleaning and putting away a dirty dish when you're done eating, or filing a sheet of paper rather than adding it to the already-sky-high TO FILE pile.

Having a clean mental slate at night makes for a clearer mind and a more restful night's sleep.

Your Mind-Clearing Exercise for today:

Find 3 tasks on your TO DO list that will take 5 minutes or less...and then do them.
