  Organizing Thought of the Day

Take a Break from the Noise in Your Life


Yesterday, I stopped by a neighbor's house to bring some mail for her that was inadvertently left in my mailbox by mistake. When she opened the door, I could hear a lot of background noise...her two dogs were barking, three young children were happily running and shouting, and the television was blaring. While we exchanged pleasantries, she excused herself for a moment to shout into her house, 'Stop running and turn off the TV...I can't even hear myself think!' And then she quietly said to me, 'I'm so sorry...it's a circus here today.'

I get it. Life is just noisy sometimes. Still, if you don't remove yourself from the noise, or quiet some of the noise when you can, it can be stressful.

I used to work in New York. That is a noisy city. Car horns, construction equipment, subway trains, busses, public demonstrations, music, people...while I loved working there, coming home to peace and quiet at the end of the day was always something I welcomed.

While external stimuli is OK now and then, perhaps even exciting, a constant stream of it isn't good for our ears, minds, productivity levels, or overall health.

If you find yourself surrounded by noise more often than you'd like, block out time on your calendar to simply enjoy some silence.

A long walk in a quiet park (or sitting on a park bench) can do wonders to release some tension.

Grab a book and find yourself a quiet nook in your home to savor it...even if just for 20 minutes.

Meditate or do a relaxing exercise class. I teach Zumba and Pound Fitness...two very loud fitness classes. I welcome quiet, slow time in my life to journal, sit and think, or do a more relaxing fitness class like Body Flow...a mixture of Yoga, Tai Chi, and Pilates.

If you work in a job that's noisy, escape for a few moments when you can...to a quiet conference room, outdoors, or even to sit in your car if you must do that to briefly give yourself a quiet reprieve.

On some nights, skip TV. Play cards with your significant other, scrapbook, draw, or engage in another quiet, peaceful activity that you like doing.

Taking a break from the noise in your life is a good thing, as well as an important component in a happy, healthy, organized life.

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:

  Inspiration


'Sometimes, it's important to turn off the noise from the outside world. Sometimes, it's critical to stop the banter even within oneself. Intentional solitude and quiet can make us strong for tomorrow.' (David Paul Kirkpatrick)
