  Organizing Thought of the Day

Keep an Ongoing Wish List


Every now and then, I see something and I say to myself, 'Hmmmmmm...it might be nice to have one of those' (whatever that item may be). For instance, the other day I saw a bamboo cutting board that I I know I would use. But it's not like it was an emergency for me to have it immediately. So, I added it to my Amazon Wish List. It's basically a 'holding place' for things I may want to get sometime in the future.

I like to think of this as my 'ongoing wish list.' It's basically a list of things that I like along the way, that I don't want to forget about, but am not quite ready to acquire. Sometimes I'm waiting to build enough Amazon points so I don't have to pay full price for the item. Other times, my sister or a friend may want to get me a gift for my birthday or for Christmas; they can go to my wish list, see an item that they know I'll like, and purchase it.

Now and then, I change my mind completely and delete the item from the list, deciding I no longer have a need for it. Not purchasing immediately and giving myself time to 'mull it over' is actually a great way to keep clutter at bay. and saves money as well.

Throughout the year, my husband adds books and other items to his wish list that he may want as gifts for birthdays or Christmas. It's great that he does this, because it's nearly impossible to buy a random gift for him that he'll actually enjoy and use. When I buy it for him, he'll ask, 'How did you know I'd love this?!' I'm not sure if he forgot he added it to his own list months ago, or remembered but he's just being nice because he's so happy that I used his list to choose from. Either way, he's always happy when he gets something that was on his list.

I like using Amazon for my ongoing wish list because it's convenient and because I buy often from Amazon. In fact, the item doesn't even have to be sold on Amazon in order for it to be added to the Amazon Wish List. I installed a Chrome Extension called 'Add to Amazon Wish List' that allows me to add anything from any website to my Amazon Wish List. I love having one convenient wish list that can be accessed, added to, or changed at any time.

That being said, you certainly don't have to use Amazon's Wish List to have an ongoing wish list. You can keep track of items you may want in your own personal computer document or even make a handwritten list). No matter what, having an ongoing list is a great way to stay organized and not to forget about those possible treasures you may come across throughout the year.

Some people are eternally happy no matter what their situation. Others find it a constant struggle to find happiness. Most folks are somewhere in between both of these.

Throughout the years, I have determined that the happiest people in the world are not just happy 'by chance,' but because they've taken specific actions in their lives. Once you know and apply these actions, you'll be able to harness and release the happiness that is deep within you.

Whether you're looking for just a little more happiness or a whole lot, my Happy for Life resource includes the information you need to multiply your happiness levels. For more details, including the three factors that contribute most to increasing your level of happiness in your life, visit:
