BRAIN DUMP

Our brains serve us best when we have a regular "spring cleaning" of all the tasks, ideas, and random thoughts that bombard us and cloud our ability to focus. Use this printable to "get it all out" whenever you feel like your brain is becoming a storage unit when it should be a lean, mean, focus machine. :)

WARDROBE INVENTORY

The first step to getting more control over your wardrobe and the image you want to present to the world is knowing what's in your wardrobe so that you can identify which pieces serve you best.

- Take inventory of your wardrobe and write in the items according to the areas that they fall under.

- List which items are your primary favourite items, secondary favourite items, and which pieces you want to donate/discard.

MY IDEAL WARDROBE

A balanced wardrobe is one that supports every activity of your life. Every time your lifestyle shifts, so should your wardrobe - otherwise you could find yourself more active in, say - business activities - and have nothing to wear but yoga pants! This is the reason why a person can be drowning in clothes and yet still have "nothing to wear."

- List out the major activities that make up your life.
